Please join Professor Black for a new proposed monthly reading group that brings together Earth scientists and geographers at CUNY to discuss shared research interests. An initial theme could be “Volcanoes, Climate, and Society,” but this could easily evolve, for example to emphasize readings of manuscripts or proposals in progress.

The main goal is to bring graduate students and faculty together for an informal hour or so of lively discussion. With this in mind, what about a first meeting on April 21 at 7:15 PM at the Graduate Center, following Maria Tzortziou’s seminar and the wine and cheese social? We can discuss the attached paper as an introduction to the relationship between humans and volcanoes.
