The symposium will take place in a bilingual (English/Spanish) and hybrid format, and attendance is FREE. The Symposium will cover Volcanology and Emergency Management, with a focus on submarine volcanism and the emergency management in the Canary Islands. III International #VULCANASymposium Submarine volcanology and emergency management 18 October 2024 FREE registration OPEN for virtual delegates (link below) Organised by IEO-CSIC and GeoTenerife - The free event will have a hybrid format (in-person and online) and all delegates can make comments and question the panel - The event will be bilingual, with comprehensive slides in English/Spanish. Delegates can comment or ask questions in English or Spanish On October 18, the Spanish Institute of Oceanography (IEO-CSIC) and GeoTenerife will organise the â??III International #VULCANASymposiumâ?? at the Canary Islands Oceanographic Center. This open and free-access symposium will bring together a prominent group of national and international experts in submarine volcanology. The event will also cover the latest scientific advances and challenges in volcanic emergency management in the Canary Islands, a critical focus for this type of research. A comprehensive and multidisciplinary programme The Symposium will offer a varied agenda including presentations by prestigious experts, who will present key research results on submarine volcanic processes, their environmental impacts, and the monitoring tools developed to address these phenomena in the Canary Islands. Among the speakers in the first session are: - Dr. Eugenio Fraile Nuez (Spain), principal investigator of the VULCANA Project (Canary Islands Submarine Volcanology) and scientist at IEO-CSIC - Dr. Thibaut Barreyre (France), volcanologist and researcher at the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) - Dr. Pablo J. González (Spain), volcanologist and researcher at the Institute of Natural Products and Agrobiology of the CSIC (IPNA-CSIC), - Dr. Ulf Skyllberg (Sweden), researcher at Sveriges Lantbruksuniversitet (Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences). The event will feature a special section dedicated to young researchers, providing them the opportunity to present their latest work and connect with established scientists in both the national and international academic communities. Participants include: - Juan Pablo MartÃn DÃaz (El Hierro), predoctoral researcher at IEO-CSIC - Dr. Alba González Vega (Gran Canaria), postdoctoral researcher at IEO-CSIC - Dr. Jesús Alcázar Treviño (Madrid), postdoctoral researcher at the University of La Laguna (ULL) and IEO-CSIC - Dr. Eduard Puig Montellà (Barcelona), Marie-Curie postdoctoral researcher at IEO-CSIC - Javier Cabrera (Gran Canaria), master's student at the University of Granada (UGR) and GeoTenerife Scholar. This session fosters a collaborative environment where they can exchange ideas and build partnerships with experienced scientists, thus ensuring the continuity and evolution of submarine volcanology and emergency management research in the Canary Islands. Volcanic emergency management An essential part of the symposium will focus on volcanic emergency management, featuring key figures involved in responding to natural phenomena. This session will present the CSIC Disaster and Emergency Advisory Protocol, aimed at providing scientific advice in crisis situations. Among the speakers are: - Néstor Padrón Castañeda, Deputy Director of Security and Emergencies of the Canary Islands Government - Dr. Inés Galindo Jiménez (Spain), Emergency Coordinator at CSIC - Dr. Nieves Sánchez (Spain), researcher at the Geological and Mining Institute of Spain (IGME-CSIC) - Dr. Stavros Meletlidis (Greece), researcher at the National Geographic Institute (IGN) - Sharon Backhouse (United Kingdom), Director of GeoTenerife. The session will include a roundtable discussion where the challenges and opportunities faced by institutions in volcanic emergency management will be debated, providing a space for reflection to improve coordination between scientists, the authorities and communities. An open access and free event The â??III International #VULCANASymposiumâ?? is a free and open event, aimed at anyone interested in submarine volcanology and emergency management. MarineSciCamp, a marine science training programme for national and international students run by GeoTenerife, is run to coincide with the event. In collaboration with IEO-CSIC, the programme offers a residential stay aboard their research vessel to assist in the monitoring of Canarian submarine volcanoes; MATLAB and SciComm training. GeoTenerife offers fully-funded scholarships to all its programmes, and prioritises Canarian applicants in its drive to promote and elevate Canarian science internationally. Attendance will be both in person and via video conference, allowing for broader outreach and access to scientific knowledge from international experts while providing a direct platform for questions and comments from the public. Attendees will receive an official certificate of attendance.
