The European Geosciences Union (EGU) General Assembly 2014, was held in Vienna between the 27 April - 02 May 2014.
This was the largest geoscience meeting to ever take place in Europe - attracting over 12,000 participants. An informal FUTUREVOLC meeting was held during the conference that was open to all FUTUREVOLC members and collaborators attending EGU.
The agenda items for this meeting included:
- Status of 18-month report
- Eruption exercise
- Response to volcanic unrest in Iceland
- Next FUTUREVOLC meeting – September 2014
Examples of presentations delivered at EGU, involving FUTUREVOLC members included:
