Column Forming Joints In An Andesite Lava Flow At Ruapehu Volcano, New Zealand (c Conway)
Iestyn Barr, Linda Sobolewski and Tryggvi Unnsteinsson have just taken over as the new leaders to represent IAVCEI in the joint IAVCEI/IACS Volcano-Ice Interactions Commission. Our backgrounds cover a diverse range of topics related to volcano-ice interactions, including work on subglacial volcanic caves, and using glaciers as indicators of volcanic activity. As new co-leaders of the Volcano-Ice Interactions Commission we have the goal to: (i) promote and highlight the importance of glaciovolcanic research; (ii) enthuse a new generation of researchers in this field; and (iii) make the importance of glaciovolcanism known to the wider scientific community and public.
Our future plans include an online workshop (autumn 2024), glaciovolcanic-themed field trips (expected in 2025), the organization of conference sessions, and a lot more. We will keep you updated.
All the best,
Iestyn, Linda and Tryggvi
