Volcanic heat comes from natural radioactivity. Hilary Morgan Volcanism happens on other planets. Rachel Hethrington Volcanoes start where magma forms, deep inside earth--these roots matter. Elise Desplas Eruptions are started by diverse events (triggers). Ren Keyport Magma moves in fits and starts. Anthony Lamur Growth and movement of bubbles drives eruptions. Celine Mandon Understanding granular flow is a key hurdle for volcanology. Earth’s hydrosphere comes from volcanic degassing. Riccardo Tortini Volcanoes can collapse catastrophically. Lauren Schaefer Volcanoes erupt in a time series pattern that tends to recur. Chet Hopp Super eruptions are a threat to living things on earth. Eruptions cannot be engineered successfully, even though volcanoes pose risk to humans.
