This National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Earth Sciences Project Grant award for $180,000 from April 1, 2024 to March 31, 2026 will support research to develop a new "Eruption Stability Diagram" classification system for volcanic eruptions. The objective is to better understand and predict the evolution of volcanic hazards, such as ash clouds and pyroclastic density currents, by accounting for the effects of varying eruption rates and micrometer-scale processes. The research will involve laboratory experiments, computer simulations, and collaborations with researchers from the University of Oregon, Smithsonian Institution, University of Edinburgh, and University of Clermont Auvergne. The project aligns with the NSF Geosciences program's goal of expanding fundamental knowledge and understanding of the Earth system through basic research.
