Bristol Benjamin Meaker Distinguished Visiting Professor Colin Wilson, Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand
Wills Memorial Building, G25
Supervolcanoes are defined by them having explosive supereruptions (>1000 cubic kilometres of pumice and ash). A continuing challenge is understanding how supervolcanoes behave past and present and over what timescales, up to and including those of human interest. This talk summarises work tackling this challenge on supervolcanoes in New Zealand and the USA.
