Science Week 2018: Volcanoes without Borders: Seismically imaging beneath Paektu/Changbaishan Volcano, North Korea/China

When:
Venue: Birkbeck Clore Management Centre

No booking required

Speaker: Dr James Hammond Senior Lecturer in Geophysics

Mt. Paektu/Changbaishan Volcano lies on the border of North-Korea and China. Despite being responsible for one of the largest eruptions in the last few thousand years, it has been little studied due to its location. This talk describes how a unique collaboration was developed between North Korean, Chinese, UK and US scientists and what it can tell us about past, present and future activity of the volcano.

This event is free and open to the public but you need to book your place through Eventbrite.
