ABSTRACT

Dr. Gro Birkefeldt Møller Pedersen, Nordic Volcanological Center, University of Iceland:

Mapping and monitoring of lava flows is important from a hazard perspective. Not only in order to warn the near-by population, but also to improve the understanding of lava emplacement, which is necessary for lava flow modelling. This talk will focus on how remote sensing data is implemented to study present day emplacement of lava flows, as well as improve mapping of historical lava flows with a temporal remote sensing archive stretching back to 1945.  Examples will be given from the Holuhraun eruption (Aug 2014- Feb 2015) and the five most recent Hekla eruptions (1947-48; 1970, 1980-81, 1991, 2000).

Alle er velkommen.
Kaffe og kage som sædvanligt.
