1st International Workshop on Volcano Geology
Madeira, July 7-11, 2014
We are glad to inform that Early Bird Registration is already open for the 1st International Workshop on Volcano Geology !

Volcanology has made
great advances in the last three decades becoming a modern
interdisciplinary science that has learned how to quantify volcanic
processes, their associated hazards and resources, as well as the impact
of volcanic activity on the society and environment. In this scientific
and technological revolution undertaken by modern volcanology it is
remarkable the explosion of physical and mathematical modelling as a
necessary tool to undertake a comprehensive approach on volcanic
processes. This important advance has, however, relegated in some cases
geological studies to a second term, although geology is still the main
source of data on which to base volcano studies. To strength the
importance of geology in modern volcanology we propose to organise the
1st International Workshop on Volcano Geology in order to provide a
forum for discussion among researchers on the state of the art of
geological studies in volcanology as the basis for understanding the
behaviour of
volcanoes and their future activity, and to encourage multidisciplinary
research in the geological fields involved in volcanological studies.
We will invite abstracts on topics relating to the geological studies of volcanic systems, thus including:
- volcano-stratigraphy
- volcano geochronology
- geological mapping
- tectonic structure of volcanic systems
- construction and erosion on volcanic edifices
- sedimentology and facies analysis of volcanic deposits
- petrology and geochemistry of volcanic systems
- geological aspects of hazard assessment
- geological interpretation of volcanic unrest
and any other topic you could consider relevant to be included here.
Best regards
The organisers:
