On the second day of our Azores field trip, we learnt about structural controls on volcanism, including the formation and hazards associated with calderas and monogenetic fields. Students also got to have a go presenting in the field. 🌋 @ES_UCL

As seen on the @ES_UCL Betics fieldtrip, WiES merch also travels! One of our students, Ruby Tavola, can be seen taking some measurements with her compass clinometer and a WiES sticker in her phonecase, two essentials on the field ⛰️🪨😎

Dr Gaunt choose the Soufriere Hills volcano as a case study for her research because it provides an excellent opportunity to study the transitions between lava dome growth & explosive activity that have generated some of the most spectacular eruptions here. @ES_UCL @UCLHC
