Voltaic

VOLTAIC (VOLcanic lighTning: a lAb and fIeld approaCh) is a EU funded project aiming to understand the conditions of occurence of volcanic lightning.

Unreal. 😱 https://t.co/Q3rNij6yC4

Massive contrats @CorCima

Zap, flash, boom! 🌋⚡️💥My project VOLTA on ash plume electrification and #volcaniclightning has been selected in this round of ERC Consolidator Grants! Honored and thrilled.... onwards!

[Voltaic @voltaic_eu]

Voltaic was of this very nice follow up of our lightning experiments @LMU_Volc, now introducing heat and steam in the autoclave. Congratulations @soenke_volc and @CorCima !

Volcanic lightning is the ideal way to close the experimental volcanology session at #IUGG2019. Well done @soenke_volc!

[Sönke Stern @soenke_volc]

How can we use experiments to analyse the influence of water content and temperature on the electrification of volcanic plumes? Very much looking forward to tell you more about that, today, 2:45 pm at #IUGG2019 @CorCima @LMU_Volc

[Voltaic @voltaic_eu]

Two days ago, I was at #IUGG2019 to received the Walker Award from @IAVCEI_official. I am very honoured of this price rewarding of all the work made with @hphtlab @LMU_Volc @CorCima Nemoh, and so many others. Thank you so much to everyone involved in these projects! 🌋⚡

[Corrado Cimarelli @CorCima]

And against all technical hurdles, I managed to pack four years of research of our group @voltaic_eu @LMU_Volc and collaborators in 12 minutes invited talk ... with @C_MarieSmith @volcaniclastic @Martin_W_Airey @soenke_volc

[Voltaic @voltaic_eu]

And also this one, with our English collegues :-)

[Corrado Cimarelli @CorCima]

Happy to see our latest paper with Keri Nicoll @Martin_W_Airey, @voltaic_eu, @karen_aplin on #volcanicplume #electrification mentioned in @NewsfromScience.

Did I forgot to tell you that the first Voltaic-EU paper was out?

Experiments showing that grainsize distribution, burst pressure and mass of ash all influence the electrical activity of a volcanic jet, but all in a different way...

[Corrado Cimarelli @CorCima]

Another impressive example of #volcaniclightning accompanying the current eruption of Anak Krakatau. #Bogoslov was almost exactly a year ago, in between several other volcanoes lightened the sky #Fuego, #Ambae .... and the usual suspect #Sakurajima we study with @voltaic_eu

[Corrado Cimarelli @CorCima]

“Surtseyan”-like jets at #AnakKrakatau reveal possible magma-water interaction associated with intense electrical discharges. What role plays water in plume electrification? Is it increased fragmentation the only trick? We urevel this with @soenke_volc experiments @voltaic_eu

[Corrado Cimarelli @CorCima]

Glad to be back at @NatGeo HQ in #WashingtonDC with @LMU_Volc new colleague and friend @AriannaSoldati for the @NatGeoExplorers #lightning talks. #AGU2018. #volcanoesrock #vivalitalia @voltaic_eu

[Voltaic @voltaic_eu]

Well done @soenke_volc ! (Spoiler alert : it's very good and super exciting !)

[Sönke Stern @soenke_volc]

Finally free. Thesis done! @CorCima #volcano #lightning

@C_MarieSmith Symbol and wingdings ?

⚡️Des éclairs dans un nuage de cendre. Ce phénomène impressionnant, c'est un orage volcanique. ⚡

[Voltaic @voltaic_eu]

@C_MarieSmith As long as your manuscript is not 99% Wikipedia, I guess it's fine...

[Voltaic @voltaic_eu]

Should also work for #volcanic #lightning ...

[Voltaic @voltaic_eu]

Voltaic-EU was right on time at #Sakurajima! Cameras and sensors set, and a nice 4.7 km #volcanic #plume with #shockwaves and #thunder!

[Voltaic @voltaic_eu]

@CorCima @IAVCEI_official @LMU_Volc And then all the crew will go supporting @equipedefrance for the world cup final !
