Greg's research projects

Taming the Ring of Fire: Real-Time Volcano Eruption Monitoring

Volcán de Fuego (or the "Volcano of Fire") in Guatemala is a very active volcano, typically having small explosions each day. During periods of increased activity, the volcano can erupt violently, threatening thousands. With better monitoring, scientists could suggest more accurate, and timely, evacuation plans.
