Congratulations to Shreya Kanakiya for publishing her first paper of her PhD thesis! This is one of many to come …

Her Geophysical Research Letters publication entitled The Role of Tuffs in Sealing Volcanic Conduits describes how acid-sulphate alteration aids the sealing of a volcanic conduit. She presents evidence of how this type of hydrothermal alteration has significantly different effects on the physical properties of conduit rocks at Whakaari/White Island volcano.
