🚨 How far are volcanologists from volcanoes? πŸŒ‹πŸš¨ Check out our new paper here: link.springer.com/article/10.1....
What started as a conversation about whether we at @exeter.ac.uk (in Cornwall, UK) are further from volcanoes than our global colleagues turned into an exploration of a fruitful data set!

Um, ok I made a science communication starter pack. Be our friends, might learn something wild and new.
