Collaborative Research: Seismic Reflection Imaging of Volcanic Cycles at the East Pacific — NSF Award to Woods Hole Oceanographic
Volcanoes on land are often in remote locations making studying them challenging. This study will focus on the volcanically active East Pacific Rise which observations show could erupt soon. The project will image the magmatic system at a location where previous data was collected in 2008. This will allow a unique time

| Abstract | Volcanoes on land are often in remote locations making studying them challenging. This study will focus on the volcanically active East Pacific Rise which observations show could erupt soon. The project will image the magmatic system at a location where previous data was collected in 2008. This will allow a unique time-lapse study of how the melt bodies have evolved over decadal timescales. This study will advance understanding of volcanic systems in the oceans and on the land and will provide t |
