Please find details below of a lecture taking place at the IOP in London.  We hope that it is of interest.

 

The Institute of Physics would like to invite you to a Lecture given by

Professor Heidy Mader.

 

The Physics of Volcanic Eruptions

 

Date: Thursday 10th April 2014

Venue: Institute of Physics, 76 Portland Place, London, W1B 1NT

Time: 18.30 (registration from 18.00)

 

Our understanding of the processes operating during volcanic eruptions has advanced enormously in the last 50 years. This understanding has been driven by the application of fundamental science to the volcanic flows, which has seen volcanology develop from a field-based descriptive art into a highly quantitative, process-oriented scientific discipline.

 

This lecture will be an opportunity to hear first-hand about how physics, experimentation and modelling of eruptions is bringing us closer to the ultimate goal of achieving quantitative eruption forecasting.

 

Professor Heidy Mader is University Research Fellow in Earth Sciences at the University of Bristol. Her research interests cover a broad range of multiphase phenomena in the environmental sciences, specifically problems in volcanology and glaciology.

 

The full details about the lecture and speaker can be found in this pdf.

 

The lecture is free to attend and is open to all, physicists and non-physicists alike, so please feel free to pass this invitation on to your colleagues, relatives, students or anyone else whom you think would be interested. Places are limited, so for those wishing to attend, please register online at,

We look forward to seeing you there.

 

This lecture is part of the Opportunity Physics 2014 lecture series, to find out more about Opportunity Physics, please visit www.iop.org/fundraising

 

Kind regards
