Cool blog post by @smakris.bsky.social on a super collaborative project to learn more about eruptions and pyroclastic density currents at Volcán de Fuego in Guatemala. Was great to join in the field--now looking forward to helping with paleomagnetic analyses soon!

Back from fieldwork in Guatemala looking at PDC deposits from Fuego for our @ukri.org project exploring generation mechanisms. We had a great time in the field as a team bringing together many skills and experiences. Excited to continue working on this also with those who weren’t in the field!

It's my turn in #IAVCEI2025 today! 🌋 I will be presenting a talk on granular flow experiments focusing on PDC processes at 16:00 in room R380.
