IAVCEI 2025! 🌋

Join us in person and online at the IAVCEI Scientific Conference.

Session 3.5 Volcanic sedimentology and geomorphology: Understanding surface and subsurface processes in driving volcanic landscape evolution and hazards
Room 280, Tuesday, Plus 32 posters from 16.30-18.30

Thank you to everyone who attended the workshop and a big thanks to the amazing organising committee 🌋🇭🇺

Day Five (the final day!): On our final day we visited Egerszalók caves where we learnt and discussed about geo-cultural heritage. This gave us an insight into how ignimbrite material allowed people to move into caves as homes.
April 14, 2025 at 1:43 PM
Day Four: Today we explored the Demjén ignimbrite from east to west. First we saw it outcropped in a quarry with some fantastic elutriation pipes
April 11, 2025 at 6:59 AM
Day 3: We started off the morning with a bonus stop to look at some lovely submarine deposited accretionary lapilli. Check out the beautiful cored acclaps with a pumice centre 🌋
April 9, 2025 at 7:37 PM
Day 2: Today we travelled north into Slovakia 🇸🇰 where we observed a basaltic diatreme section and had lots of discussions surrounding maar formation and infill

Then we explored a tuff ring with a castle on top! Look at those baked clasts 🌋😍
April 8, 2025 at 7:57 PM
Day One: Today on our field trip we visited Sámsonháza and saw this amazing outcrop! We looked at the contact between andesitic sills, volcaniclastics, and peperite 🌋

Lots of good rock chats and some great local food! Bring on day 2!

We are in Budapest for our field workshop! Over the next few days we will be travelling around Hungary looking at volcaniclastics and sedimentary successions 🌋🇭🇺

This morning we have had talks form Orsolya Sztanó and Szabolcs Harangi from Eötvös University Budapest giving us an overview of the area

Meet Dr Andrea Di Capua! 🌋
 
After completing his PhD looking at the control exerted by volcanism and tectonics on basins, Andrea has gone on to look at how these processes impact sedimentary environments.
