The volcano seismologist

Fly Bar
January 30, 2014 by ScientistsInc in Season 1

Mel Rodgers is a volcanologist who studies the earthquakes generated by volcanoes, in order to predict potential eruptions better. Mel's work requires her to spend a lot of time in close proximity to volatile, active volcanoes – even sacrificing her favorite sweater to collect a sample of rock from a lava flow. Can't handle the heat? Get out of the volcano... and listen to Mel's story in this podcast.

Many thanks to the hospitality of The Fly Bar Tampa.

And many more thanks to the talented and handsome Mathew Halpern for the music featured in this podcast. You can listen to more of his music on SoundCloud as Cole Mathews and as himself, Mathew Halpern. You can follow Mathew on Twitter as @MathewHalpern.
