VHub - New online resource for the volcanology community
 

VHub is an online resource for collaboration in volcanology research and risk mitigation. VHub provides easy mechanisms for sharing tools to model volcanic processes and analyze volcano data, to share resources such as teaching materials and workshops, and to communicate with other members of the volcanology community and with members of the educational and stakeholder communities. Volcanologists can use VHub to collaborate with people around the world, and can have full control over the privacy of that collaboration. VHub is provided at no cost for users.
   
The VHub mission is to build a virtual organization that enables collaboration across geographic and economic boundaries, and that promotes integration between basic volcanology research and real-world risk mitigation.
The International Association of Volcanology and Chemistry of the Earth's Interior (IAVCEI) a new Early-Career Group for all those that are active within this area of science.
