And by no means least we shall round of the talks with Nemi Walding from the University of Hull (Catastrophic Flows). Nemi will be exploring the transport, deposition and erosion of pyroclastic sediment during explosive eruptions.

Our fourth speaker will be Joel Lozano of the University of Durham (Durham Earth Science). His presentation will take us back to the Permian and to the Zechstein Sea not only to look at the depositional history but also explore the potential these rocks have for CO2 storage.
