The coring campaign of the ExTRAP project - Exploratory study of Tephra Records in Azores Peatlands is ongoing on Pico Island. We are coring peatlands of the central highlands of Pico searching for tephra layers to help reconstruct the eruptive history of the island. Stay tuned for exciting results!

That's a warp on a very fruitful #IAVCEI2025 week in Geneva, Switzerland! Despite the heat wave across Europe, we hung on strong. It was great to catch-up with "old" friends, meet new colleagues and motivated ECRs. Thanks to everyone for the many interesting discussions about volcanoes 🌋

Using stochastic modelling to unravel the eruptive behaviour of the active central volcanoes of São Miguel (Azores) - Bulletin of Volcanology Island volcanoes often present incomplete or poorly preserved eruptive records, generating large uncertainties about their past behaviour. São Miguel is one such case, where three active central volca...

The authors comment, from a volcanological point of view and in light of current scientific knowledge, on the eruptive events described in the various texts. A “plot” woven with intrigue and power games! Available at Letras Lavadas bookstore in Ponta Delgada (São Miguel, Azores).

The book “O Vulcão da Urzelina de 1808 – Contributos documentais” reflects the joint work by Manuel Augusto de Faria, José Guilherme Reis Leite and Adriano Pimentel, where the authors transcribe and adapt official correspondence related to the 1808 eruption on São Jorge Island.

Slowly moving away from X (former Twitter) and giving a chance to Bluesky. Let's see what's up around here, volcano related stuff and other natural hazards
