• Atmospheric dispersion research and response

  and use of probabilistic dispersion forecasts. This involves quantifying the source, meteorological and impact uncertainties. Scientific collaboration and developments with a number of agencies (e.g. Public Health England) and UK universities (e.g., Reading, Bristol, Leeds and Cambridge). We are partners in the EUROVOLC project which aims to promote an integrated and harmonized European volcanological community.
