6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6 From: FONTIJN Karen <Karen.Fontijn@xxxxxx> Dear all, We warmly encourage contributions to our session â??Unravelling eruptive histories of volcanoes to understand future behaviourâ?? during the upcoming IAVCEI Scientific Assembly in July 2025: *Unravelling eruptive histories of volcanoes to understand future behaviour* A detailed geologic map and volcanic stratigraphy underlie almost all other geologic studies of volcanoes (petrology, geochemistry, physical volcanology, etc.). Detailed eruption histories are fundamental for understanding any volcano and provide context for eruptive behaviour, hazard assessment and mitigation, monitoring, and subsequent research. Moreover, they can provide detailed information on eruptive processes and products, as well as how these processes and products change over time and space. We invite contributions presenting eruption histories of regions, volcanoes, calderas, and volcanic fields delineated through geologic mapping, (tephro)stratigraphy, and geochronology. We also invite contributions on the challenges and limitations to field-based studies as well as the use of alternative methods to understand eruptive history and associated hazard and risk. Multidisciplinary contributions combining field-based methods with archival research, new techniques, or methods from other scientific disciplines are especially encouraged, as are ideas on integrating such studies with hazard and risk management strategies. *Conveners*: Karen Fontijn (Université libre de Bruxelles, Belgium) Amdemichael Zafu Tadesse (University of Oxford, United Kingdom) Natalia Pardo (Universidad de los Andes, Colombia) We Hope to see many of you there, either in presence or online!
