GMPV ECS Campfires – Mineralogy Meets Soil Science: Remediation, Weathering Processes and Interactions

GMPV ECS Campfires Team December 2, 2025

How do minerals shape the future of soils, and how do soils drive mineral transformations? This campfire highlights remediation strategies, contamination hazards, and mineral–soil interactions that control water quality, carbon storage, and ecosystem health. Join us on Wednesday, December 17th @ 11 am CET to explore how weathering, organo-mineral processes, and innovative approaches help tackle po ...[Read More]

Thermobarometry: a bit of background Being able to understand the eruptive style of a volcano, how the eruptive behavior can evolve over time and managing to better interpret the signals that a volcanic system gives us before an eruption are of fundamental importance for mitigating the risk associated with eruptive activities. In this context, it is extremely important to understand trans-crustal ...[Read More]
