OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Risky Mountains in Paradise: Navigating the Volcanic Tapestry of Island Life

In this talk Richie will share examples and lessons learned during his work in the region directed at reducing risk from volcanic activity. This includes, developing innovative, cost-effective monitoring solutions, engaging with communities, advancing knowledge of volcanic systems through partnerships with research institutions, and embracing new technologies
