Chuck Lillis was a visionary and impacted the UO more than anyone in recent history. The Volcanology community at the University of Oregon benefited greatly from Chuck's vision and desire to build a cluster of excellence. Our hearts go out to the Lillis family.

The University of Oregon mourns the death of Charles M. “Chuck” Lillis, an alumnus, trustee, and businessman who has left an indelible mark on the institution he loved through his unparalleled generosity, leadership, and vision.

Today is @BNash97 last day in the UO Sensors for Extreme Environments lab. Blake has done some amazing things in the lab and we are excited to see what he does next in graduate school in atmospheric science at UC Davis!

After having a discussion of very old rocks with Ron Frost at UW, I managed to briefly visit the Granite Mtns in Wyoming. The mountains emerge like islands from a sea of sediment.

Fun t-shirt from the crew at Wyoming!

Wonderful day visiting with the group at U. Wyoming Geology and Geophysics as part of their seminar series.

Idaho: Basically every fire in Idaho went plume dominated today. This is the Lava Fire on the Boise National Forest.
#idfire #wildfire #idwx
It sounds like it may run into 2 other fires on the same Forest. This is incredible fire behavior spanning across a vast portion of Idaho.

Thanks to the Substack subscriber who shared this footage of this insane column. Good luck out there!

It has been a whirlwind of meetings, field trips and volcanic discussions in the past month in Oregon starting with the Cascades24 meeting in Bend and ending with the PDC workshop in Eugene last week!

[Josef Dufek @DufekLab]

Great discussions about volcanic processes in a wonderful natural laboratory.

The FIAMME project has been using the Mazama Ignimbrite as a case study to inform our Framework for Ignimbrite Analysis Methodologies for Modelling and hazard Evaluation.

An incredible trip with some wonderful volcanologists. Read about the project here: https://t.co/UhrJFcaNHB

Remember to register for Cascades24. No registration fees and lodging is provided in Bend. Additional travel funds for ECR are available.

[Oregon Center for Volcanology @UOVolcanology]

Cascades24 will held Monday, August 5 to Friday, August, 9, 2024 in Bend, Oregon and will focus on themes of the magmatic, volcanic and tectonic processes in the Cascades. https://t.co/NIYFVg4uUZ

We also had a wonderful visit from George Bergantz this week who discussed lower crustal exposures and granular fabrics.

I'm a bit late posting our group picture for the year -- but no time like the present, especially as three of the group are defending in the next three weeks, starting with @Fringe_Finder tomorrow!

[Josef Dufek @DufekLab]

Excited to this out. In this paper led by @joshua_crozier we examine how an eruption can be modified by deformation and the connection between geophysics and turbulent multiphase plumes. Also illustrating the the potential of integrating many different sensor measurements.

Article: Explosive eruptions of Kīlauea volcano can be explained by sudden subsidence of reservoir roof rock causing gas and debris venting by a mechanism similar to a stomp rocket

Very excited to see this paper led by @ecpbreard come out! As always, Eric makes the best figures!

Join us in Bend to discuss magmatism in the Cascades: https://t.co/0qgqbV1O3t

[Prof. Simon Carn @simoncarn]

After the GEMS measurements, there was a major escalation of the #Ruang #eruption, producing a high-level umbrella cloud. Higher SO₂ emissions are expected, with stratospheric injection likely. For reference, the 2002 #Ruang eruption emitted ~0.1 Tg SO₂.

We launched a sensor balloon for our @uoregon Earth Sciences 'Building an Atmosphere' class yesterday. After a day+night traveling across California, a little loop in the Pacific, and across Mexico we are now tracking it in Texas. @uocas #sensors

The Pacific NW is a great combo for coffee and volcanoes:

If your next cup of espresso tastes a bit better, you can thank volcanology https://t.co/zXSelZJAMK

Just completed the central Oregon leg of our @uoregon field volcanology class. A bit chilly, but lots of great geology!
