About this position

Scientific Background A major challenge in volcanology is understanding and anticipating transitions in volcanic activity. Subtle changes within volcanic systems can precede hazardous eruptions, yet remain difficult to detect and interpret. This challenge is the focus of the NERC Large Grant Expecting the Unexpected (Ex-X): Understanding Dangerous Volcanic Transitions (dangerousvolcanoes.org). The 2020-21 eruption of La Soufrière, St Vincent, highlighted the importance of improved monitoring and hazard assessment. Recent advances in Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) offer new opportunities fo
