Introduction -- How do volcanoes work? -- Forecasting eruptions -- How do Earth systems interact with eruptions? -- Strengthening volcano science -- Grand challenges in volcano science. "Volcanic eruptions are common, with more than 50 volcanic eruptions in the United States alone in the past 31 years. These eruptions can have devastating economic and social consequences, even at great distances from the volcano. Fortunately many eruptions are preceded by unrest that can be detected using ground, airborne, and spaceborne instruments. Data from these instruments, combined with basic understanding of how volcanoes work, form the basis for forecasting eruptions--where, when, how big, how long, and the consequences."--Publisher's Web site |
