RESEARCH
Current Research Activity
My physical volcanology research work is centred on (1) quantifying the processes involved in
explosive volcanic eruptions, and (2) understanding the patterns of behaviour of erupting
volcanoes. This has involved assembling detailed field-based case studies, supported by
laboratory studies of particle size, shape, vesicularity and crystallinity, and collaboration with
computational modellers. My hazard research looks at knowledge, perceptions and preparedness
for a range of natural hazards including tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, flooding and climate-
induced rise of sea level.
1. Dynamics of the ascent, degassing, & eruption of magma
To create a catalogue of intensely studied classical historical eruptions linking data sets for:
(1). Field constraints on changing mass eruption rates, eruptive intensity and style
(2). SEM and XRCMT measurements of size, shape and number of vesicle and
microlites/microphenocrysts.
The broad aim of this project is to document eruption processes and rates in real time with high
spatial and temporal resolution, and, in parallel, quantify the diversity in the mixture of juvenile
4
pyroclasts that emerges from an eruptive vent and use this data to constrain and validate models
for ascent and degassing of magma prior to explosive eruptions.
The principal projects are based at: Kilauea (1959, 1969, 1982, 1983-86, 2011 and 2008-2018
eruptions), Taupo (New Zealand), Novarupta (Alaska), and Askja, (Iceland) calderas, fissure
eruptions at Laki and Eldgjá (Iceland), and composite volcanoes of Ruapehu (1995-96 eruption),
Havre (Kermadecs), Vesuvius (79 AD eruption), Hekla, Grímsvötn, Eyjafjallajökull (Iceland),
Etna (122 BC, 1990, 1995, 2001, 2002), and Stromboli (2002, 2003, 2008, 2014-).

2. Explosive volcanism: Complex depositional processes
Extremely proximal exposures of pyroclastic deposits are rarely preserved but offer insight into
transient, impulsive and sectorally-confined processes of transport and deposition in the lower
portions of eruptive plumes. With co-workers I have completed very detailed field stratigraphy
coupled with laboratory studies of grain size and particle types which we are now modelling with
the assistance of modellers at Instituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia, Pisa, University of
California, Berkeley, and Rice University. Current projects are: the 17 June 1996 Ruapehu fall
deposit, the Tarawera 1886 scoria fall, the 2011 Grimsvötn, and 2010 Eyjafjallajökull fall
deposits, and five subplinian to Plinian fall deposits at Hekla volcano.

3. Natural hazards & society
This is designed to be an interface between physical science and the community (and particularly
emergency managers). It is a major long-term alliance with first the Institute of Geological and
Nuclear Sciences in New Zealand and currently several US partners including FEMA.
It looks at quantitative evaluation of (i) hazards, (ii) impacts, (iii) perceptions and awareness, (iv)
affective reactions and (v) societal and organisational behaviours during crises linked to hazard
events, using a range of social science approaches.
It is growing rapidly as a result of long term funding of the National Disaster Preparedness
Training Center (NDPTC), in the School of Social Sciences at University of Hawaiʻi, via
Department of Homeland Security funding since 2009. Current projects include:
(1) Public reaction in Hawaii to warnings and alerts of the March 2011 Tohoku tsunami.
(2) A longitudinal assessment of perceptions of tsunami risk in 7 US communities.
(3) An evaluation of reaction to precursors of the December 26, 2005 tsunami in Thailand.
(4) Public attitudes and behaviour during volcanic crises at Kīlauea and Mauna Loa in Hawai’i.
(5) Processes and impacts of lava flows during 2014-2015 and 2018 volcanic crises in Puna,
Hawaiʻi.
As part of this commitment to hazard science, I developed the FEMA Volcanic Crises
Awareness course with colleagues at 4 USGS Volcano Observatories, and a ‘Science of
Disasters’ advanced training course for senior emergency managers with Professor Karl Kim, the
executive director of NDPTC.

A second thread to this research has been two NSF Hazard SEES awards in 2012-2014, and
2015-2019, looking at all physical and social aspects of volcanic crises, integrating the
disciplines of geology & geophysics, psychology & planning, mathematics & statistics,
computational modelling, and cyberinfrastructure. The second study involves seven institutions:
USGS, UHM, University of California - Berkeley, University of Washington, and Duke and
Marquette universities, and is led by University at Buffalo.

4. Catastrophic flooding and sedimentation following large explosive eruptions
The most widespread and enduring problems associated with large explosive volcanic eruptions
are the lahars and floods that occur for years to decades after the eruptions, as highlighted by
the continuing financial and human costs at Pinatubo since the 1991 eruption. Our work
involves detailed studies of a major lahar triggered by dam collapse in New Zealand in 2007 in
New Zealand.

TEACHING
Undergraduate/postgraduate teaching
GG 300 Volcanology
Third –year undergraduate class. The class includes 4 field trips and 2 field-based research
exercises. Enrolment has increased by a factor of 2.7 since 2000 and is now the largest class
above 100 level in Geology and Geophysics at University of Hawaii.
GG601 Quantitative explosive volcanism (co-taught with Sarah Fagents).
Postgraduate class. The class focuses on computational models of eruption processes using
examples form two natural field laboratories: Kilauea volcano, Hawaii and Taupo Volcanic
Zone, New Zealand. Modules include
classes on ascent and fragmentation of magma, and transport and deposition of
pyroclasts.
A 5-day field workshop using field techniques on Kilauea focusing on the 2008-2009,
1969 and 1959 eruptions
A 12-day field workshop to Taupo Volcanic Zone., New Zealand
PLAN 671/GG 604: Disaster management: Understanding the nature of hazards
Graduate level class, taught both in Geology & Geophysics and the School of Social Sciences.
This class is based around extended analyses of 4 natural disasters, currently Hurricane Katrina,
the Tōhoku tsunami, the Kobe earthquake and the Pinatubo eruption. It also contains a 2-day
field excursion to the Big Island of Hawaii and a 4-hour long simulation of a major volcanic
eruption at Mauna Loa volcano. PLAN671/GG 604 looks at the physical processes involved in
hydrological, meteorological and geological hazards and the social constructs that determine the
scale and nature of their impacts on society. It also introduces attempts to mitigate risk via either
social intervention, or engineering and land use planning.
