Supervolcanoes

The ECLIPSE Programme aims to reduce the uncertainty around TVZ supervolcano unrest episodes and eruptions with this MBIE funded Endeavour Research Programme

Very proud of Dr Elms for defending her PhD today on the geochemistry, magmatic processes and timescales of recent rhyolitic eruptives of the Ōkataina Volcanic Centre. Hannah has fundamentally changed our understanding of how this volcano works ⁦@SupervolcanoNZ⁩ 🌋

Check out these supereruption PhD projects available with @VolcanoSimon at @WellingtonUni

[Simon Barker @VolcanoSimon]

🌋3 fully funded PhD projects!!! 🇳🇿
Are you interested the impacts of past #supereruptions, or the eruptive histories of offshore volcanoes in New Zealand? If so, I have 3 fully funded PhD projects available @WellingtonUni

Another great piece of outreach from @SupervolcanoNZ about super eruptions. Folks just remember these come from #caldera volcanoes, not the typically iconic looking #cone volcanoes on the post cards of past. #eruptions this big are very rare.

Congratulations to @Tom Wilson Wilson who has been appointed as the Chief Science Advisor to NEMA (@NZcivildefence)
Pleased we have Tom with us parttime but also thrilled that he can to share his expertise.

Tonga’s eruption and tsunami highlights the significant threat from offshore volcanoes, @VolcanoSimon writes. https://t.co/8PlXpFIIci

With incredible timing, here is a link to our manuscript on the geochemistry of the 2009, 2014/15 and older eruptions from #HungaTongaHungaHaapai, led by Dr Marco Brenna (U. Otago). The young events are interpreted as leaks from a large rebuilding system. https://t.co/X8R21Qd9hY

Why the Hunga-Tonga-Hunga-Ha'apai eruption was so violent, and what to expect next https://t.co/DJX854sDlW via @ConversationEDU

Great article on our recently funded Marsden project @SupervolcanoNZ @MarsdenFund @WellingtonUni

[Simon Barker @VolcanoSimon]

We've had our project "Climatic and environmental impacts of the largest explosive volcanic eruptions on Earth" funded! Excited to work with a great team to investigate how past supereruptions impacted NZ and the world. Two PhD projects to soon be advertised! @WellingtonUni

[GSNZ @GeoscienceNZ]

Exciting news! GSNZ Conference early-bird registration deadline extended to Saturday 30 October & abstract submission to Friday 24 September!
Some places for the family BBQ, conference dinner & field trips are still available, but these are filling up fast so register soon!

A great review on supervolcanoes has just been published in @NatRevEarthEnv by ECLIPSE researchers @MBIEsci @WellingtonUni

[Nature Reviews Earth & Environment 🌈 @NatRevEarthEnv]

New Review on #supereruptions!🌋

Wilson et al. review geological evidence of past supereruptions along with geophysical observations of modern large silicic systems to illustrate the range of diversity in these phenomena🗻

Yellowstone is not the only large caldera system in the world. In New Zealand the Taupō caldera system shares many similarities with Yellowstone—a history of large eruptions, geysers, earthquake swarms and ground deformation. https://t.co/3NioS1ZnX6 #DYK #CalderaChronicles

This Monday, #Yellowstone #CalderaChronicles explores Taupō caldera, New Zealand -- Yellowstone's sibling in the southern hemisphere. Like Yellowstone, Taupō has geysers, seismic swarms, and ground deformation, and it experienced a bout of unrest in 2019!
