Marie Edmonds is Head of Department of Earth Sciences, holds a Chair in Volcanology and Petrology and Vice President and Ron Oxburgh Fellow in Earth Sciences at Queens’ College, Cambridge. She is part of the Cambridge Volcanology Group. Her research focuses on understanding the impact of volcanoes on our environment and on the habitability of our planet. Volcanoes are sources of pollutants and can impact our environment, society and economy in a range of ways. Volcanoes also provide us with nutrients critical for life, green sources of energy and sustainable resources. Marie’s research spans the boundaries between traditional disciplines, from deciphering the nature of the interior of the Earth, to magma transport and storage in the crust, to volcano monitoring, understanding ore deposits and the dynamic chemistry of volcanic gases in the atmosphere and climate.
