Volcanology: The chemistry of volcanic gases and their environmental impacts. Discover Earth Sciences Lecture 3 Dr Emma Liu
Volcanoes are important to the geological evolution of our planet and its atmosphere. However, they also pose a range of hazards to society and the environment.
Chemistry can help us to understand why volcanoes show very different eruptive styles, forecast future eruptions and assess the impact of eruptions on air/water quality and climate.
Chemistry is so much more than test tubes and titration experiment, we can use it to solve big questions in Earth Sciences!
