Tephra Impact Lab - Taupo Volcano
06 Dec 2011 | Contributor(s): Tom Wilson, Leah Michelle Courtland
This lab requires students to produce a pre-eruption tephra risk assessment for Taupo volcano, using Tephra2. It requires students to consider the eruptive history of Taupo volcano and a volcanic unrest scenario is provided, so that students must decide what magnitude and style of eruption is...
