increasing our knowledge about the nature of long-dormant volcanoes including their magma reservoir system, revealing eruption initiation processes, the processes, which control the eruption styles using volcano petrology studies

Understanding volcanic activities from source to surface, i.e from the magma generation through the magma reservoir processes up to the eruptions. Quantitative modeling of magmatic processes, Crystal-scal studies with thermobarometric calculations. Relationships between magmatic/volcanic activities and plate tectonic processes, geodynamic evolution.

Global impact of volcanic activities. Societal response to large volcanic eruptions. Outreach about volcanic eruptions and processes. Geoparks.
