  Angela Diefenbach (106.30 KB)
  
  Western Washington University graduate student Angela Diefenbach is pioneering a new method for the study and evaluation of active volcanoes and their risk for eruption. Diefenbach is using a technique called photogrammetry that involves taking pictures of an active volcano and using commercially available software, plot points on the pictures that the software is able to evaluate and turn into a three-dimensional model. The model can then be compared to past models to determine its volume and rate of growth, key indicators of volcanic activity.

  Combatant Col (1.72 MB)
  
  Geology Professor Doug Clark is working, along with colleagues from the UW and a number of Canadian universities, to conduct climate-change reasearch atop B.C.'s Mount Waddington. Clark spent part of the summer of 2007 doing research using ice coring and ground-penetrating radar on a broad, flat expanse of ice called the Combatant Col; the ice, nearly 600 feet thick, holds climate data for the past 1,000 years. This summer, Clark hopes to return and retrieve a sample core from the surface to the bedrock beneath.
