YOU ARE INVITED TO ATTEND:

The Volcano Alarm:
Anticipating Eruptions

Moderator
Alex Halliday
Director, The Earth Institute of Columbia University

with
Einat Lev
 Lamont Associate Research Professor,
Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory

and
Terry Plank
Arthur D. Storke Memorial Professor
in the Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences,
 Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory

Tuesday, June 16, 2020
4:00 PM EST- 5:00 PM EST

Join the Earth Institute and the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory online for an Earth Institute LIVE conversation featuring Einat Lev and Terry Plank moderated by Alex Halliday, Director. They will be discussing volcanoes: how they impact our climate system, how they affect the 800 million people who live within reach of potentially catastrophic eruptions, and how much more there is to learn.

Einat Lev<https://columbia.us8.list-manage.com/track/click?u=377386977ee2638576d8685e5&id=1e77190096&e=75ac987d3a> is a Lamont Associate Research Professor at Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory, where she started as a postdoctoral fellow in 2009. Einat holds a BSc in Geophysics and Computer Science from Tel Aviv University and a PhD in Geophysics from MIT. She investigates the fluid mechanics and physical processes controlling volcanic eruptions, illuminating how the complex properties of magma and lava, along with variable eruption conditions, play a role on the outcome of eruptions. Her research relies on a range of research methods, primarily numerical modeling, fluid mechanics experiments using materials analogous to magma and lava, field surveys, and aerial photography. In addition to publishing in scientific journals, she has written for popular science blogs and radio interviews. Einat is passionate about science education and strives to bring the insights from basic research into applications that benefit society, and to expand the reach of science education to all sections of society.

Terry Plank<https://columbia.us8.list-manage.com/track/click?u=377386977ee2638576d8685e5&id=e5658ac6ee&e=75ac987d3a> is the Arthur D. Storke Memorial Professor in the Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences at Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory. She is a geochemist who studies magmas associated with the plate tectonic cycle and is known for her studies of subduction zones: the inputs on the ocean floor, the temperatures attained beneath volcanoes, the melting process in the mantle, and the water contents of magmas before they erupt. She graduated from Dartmouth College with a degree in earth sciences, and earned her doctorate from Columbia University in 1993. Plank received the Houtermans Medal from the European Association for Geochemistry, the Donath Medal from the Geological Society of America, and is a Fellow of the American Geophysical Union, the Geochemical Society, the Geological Society of America, and the Mineralogical Society of America. In 2012 she was named a MacArthur Foundation Fellow.
