1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1 From: Paul Jarvis <p.jarvis@xxxxxxxxxx> Dear colleagues, We are delighted to invite you to join us for the next instalment of the Ashvances in Tephra Hazard Modelling seminar series, organised by the IAVCEI Commission for Tephra Hazard Modelling. This will take place at *02:00 UTC* on *29 November 2023*. Please *use this time zone converter <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html?iso=20231129T020000&p1=1440&p2=54&p3=236&p4=196&p5=248&p6=396&p7=264&p8=103&p9=224&p10=155__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!bhZk6zcaOoZPDORtWBS0RB6c007OtlrMAOnX5Gm1GOSqTc_pCb6JiEDFw3Zbwepq1RBV6J1jGCeC26KJenU$> to check the time of this seminar where you are*. It is our pleasure to welcome, *Fukashi Maeno* (University of Tokyo) and *Hannah Moore* (University of Tasmania) as our speakers. They will be presenting: - Hannah Moore: *Sedimentation modelling of multi-vent Plinian plumes: A case study of the 1886 Tarawera eruption* - Fukashi Maeno: *Abrupt changes in eruption style in large-scale eruptions of mafic volcanoes* If you would like to attend the seminar, *please register **here* <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/1380b8e8-afa7-401d-b0bd-7220aaddbe3f@f607a494-56fb-4073-8fc5-6daa9c5d38d7__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!bhZk6zcaOoZPDORtWBS0RB6c007OtlrMAOnX5Gm1GOSqTc_pCb6JiEDFw3Zbwepq1RBV6J1jGCeCmA1JDtM$> . We recognise that the time of this event will not be amenable to everyone. We aim to rotate our seminars around different time zones as much as possible to reach audience members from across the globe and give everyone an equal and fair chance to participate in the seminars. We are currently in the process of creating a YouTube channel where we will host the recordings from our seminar series. Stay tuned for more information. We are always looking out for new speakers in future seminars. We aim to hold a seminar every quarter (c. 3 months), with each seminar lasting for about an hour. Two speakers will be allocated 15-20-minute talks with 5-10 minutes for questions. The last 10 minutes will be kept for general discussions, e.g., how the Tephra Hazard Modelling Commission can serve you better, and socializing/networking. At least one of the talks will be by an early-career researcher, and we will use this seminar series to showcase the work of researchers with backgrounds underrepresented in volcanology. Time zones will be selected based on the location(s) of speakers and we will aim to rotate these as much as possible to reach audience members from across the globe and give everyone an equal and fair chance to participate in the seminars. We aim that by having two talks per seminar, each session will cover multiple topics, including but not limited to numerical modelling, field studies, laboratory experiments and risk communication/management. *Please use this form https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://forms.gle/z7LB3TJDWauD3qCs6__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!Z8RMRqqai5ohfZkyTZAV52m039y3MGtd42MitDJ0ATKb47OXHTRaHq3iVT5HUgQdVDq7xjPwDTIwqi61$ <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://forms.gle/z7LB3TJDWauD3qCs6__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!ZYbhk9h-Mu55gmuoIMwvyIC8M7kzQzsnRi4gp6yn6R6g390Oz7FTA4cXbI5RMdelaV_WHtdXISDx-y_Zhg$>** to register your interest in being a speaker or suggest a student/colleague*.
