Iceland Volcanology Field Camp

The first year was a success, and we are pleased to announce the second offering of the Iceland Volcanology Field Camp offered by the South Dakota School of Mines & Technology through the Black Hills Natural Sciences Field Station.

July 28-August 16, 2013
3 semester credits, undergraduate or graduate
Fee: $3,695 covers transportation in Iceland, lodging, and most meals. Transportation to/from Iceland not included.  Enrollment limited to 16 students.

This project-driven course in volcanology will explore Iceland from the south coast where the Mid-Atlantic Ridge comes ashore to the highlands near the focus of the Iceland mantle plume.  Subjects that will be considered include: basaltic and rhyolitic lava flows, tephra characterization, phreatomagmatic features, subglacial volcanism, volcano monitoring, and geothermal power.  Projects will be conducted on active volcanic systems, in Late Pleistocene and Holocene volcanic fields, and in the Tertiary volcanic stratigraphy exposed in glacial valleys and fjords of Iceland.
