[For eligible students, the studentship covers home tuition fees plus an annual tax-free stipend.] This PhD studentship at the University of Exeter focuses on how magma-mush processes influence volcanic unrest . The project addresses a major challenge in eruption forecasting and hazard assessment: understanding how subsurface magma movement, accumulation, and heterogeneity shape surface deformation and seismic signals before eruptions. The student will develop and apply new numerical models of m...
