Grant Title: The excess gas paradox at volcanoes: does CO2 favor gas accumulation in mafic magmas?   Award Abstract: The forecasting of volcanic eruptions is vital for ~1.1 billion people living near volcanoes worldwide and remains quite challenging. Volcanologists strive to forecast the likelihood, size, and style of eruptions. Many eruptions emit an excess amount of volcanic gases that is greater than the volume of erupted magma. We do…
