Home›Earth Sciences›VolcanologistsGroupVolcanologistsThis group collects the Earth Sciences subcategory's members whose defining work concerns volcanology: volcanoes, magma chambers, lava composition and the physical processes of volcanic eruption, from field observers who monitored active volcanoes at close range to the scientists who explained why and how magma reaches the surface. It is one of the subcategory's smaller groups, kept apart from Geophysicists And Seismologists, whose members study the Earth's interior and seismic activity broadly rather than volcanic activity specifically.FactsBrowse BySourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonField EstablishedWell-attested1841 1Browse ByAll VolcanologistsVolcanologists14 entriesVolcanologistsFilter Results14 entriesDisciplineAllGeochemistry (1)Geology (12)Mineralogy (2)Petrology (1)Volcanology (2)Zoology (1)Field (legacy)AllGeochemistry and volcanology (1)Geology (5)Geology, mineralogy, zoology (1)Mineralogy and geology (1)Petrology and geology (1)Structural geology, economic geology and volcanology (1)Volcanology, geology (1)EraAll1797 (1)1813 (1)1833 (1)1835 (1)1840 (1)1863 (1)1871 (1)1894 (1)1897 (1)1904 (1)1905 (1)1930 (1)1942 (1)1963 (1)InstitutionAllColumbia University (1)Massachusetts Institute of Technology (1)National Academy of Sciences (1)Royal Society (6)The Geological Society of London (2)In GroupAllVolcanologists (14)NationalityAllAustralia (1)France (1)Netherlands (1)United Kingdom (5)United States (6)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 14Aaron C.
