Vincy Voices - Lessons From La Soufriere Short Film

We're pleased to share this short film based on stories from the 2020/2021 La Soufriere eruption in St. Vincent and the Grenadines. Funded under the communications evaluation project in partnership with The Centre for the Study of Existential Risk (CESR) at the University of Cambridge, the film is meant to prepare other islands in the region for the threats associated with volcanic unrest. There are many stories still to be told, this is just the beginning. We hope you enjoy. Let us know in the comments below!

    How were the analysis of the eruption? That includes general chemistry of the tephras (mainly basaltic andesite? magma mixing?), thickness of pyroclastic flows and lahars, if any new land was formed out of those for the simplest parts of it. Will this new deep crater be filled with a new lake (that was 100% vaporised after the 1979 eruption)? Considering the cycle of this volcano, can it be expected to wait 60 years before a new dome is emplaced? The 1979 eruption was unusual because the dome came immediately after the explosions. So the 2020-21 eruption could be considered a return to form? Does anyone in the public know about the May 7th 1902 eruption (unlikely!!)?

    Thanks for the questions and comment. Yes the public knows about the 1902 eruption as we've done extensive outreach work over the past decade on island. There is an interactive exhibit called 'Soufriere Blow' that showcases details of that eruption and the 1979. With respect to the analysis, papers have been published and research will continue. You can visit uwiseismic.com/downloads/scientific-papers/ to view some of the work published. A special thematic series will soon be published that will be open access. Regarding Soufriere, we have to wait and see what cycle or patterns it will follow but the Centre continues to monitor it and the other volcanoes under our remit.
