Waves in volcanic and glacial conduits
Event Start:

Event Information:
Geological fluid mechanics is a strange brand of physics: research problems often involve spatial scales that we can see and interact with directly, but dynamics that are 'hidden' in the sense that they involve timescales outside the human experience or initial and boundary conditions that are challenging to constrain. In this talk I will discuss a particular outstanding problem in volcano and glacier science: inferring the geometry of and fluid motion within conduit and crack structures beneath the surface of the Earth.
