28th International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics (IUGG), Berlin, 11 – 20 July 2023

 

INHIGEO sponsors a History of Volcanology session at the 28th IUGG General Assembly. This cross-disciplinary symposium forms part of INHIGEO’s outreach activities where we interact with scientific congresses in order to raise awareness of the history of our science.

 

V10 History of Volcanology and Historical Volcanology (chaired by Claudia Principe and Martina Kölbl-Ebert)

 

The history of volcanology is the history of ideas and processes that investigate the reason volcanic events occur and the physical processes that regulate them. The maturation and changes of these ideas over time have made volcanology the science we know today. While the term historical volcanology must refer to the use of historical data, be it documentary or figurative, for the description of volcanic phenomena, for example through the description of eruptive phenomenologies, their products, and the resulting morphologies in written texts and pictorial works. In both cases, these disciplines require a marked multidisciplinarity, historical and volcanological approach, and aim to reconstruct volcanological processes and events of the past. Contributions from both of these points of view are welcomed.
