Clive Oppenheimer

University of Cambridge (UK)

Clive Oppenheimer is recognized for innovations in remote sensing of volcanic gases and aerosol which have transformed the chemical surveillance of active volcanoes, and led to new and profound insights into the behaviour of degassing magmatic systems; for wider contributions to the understanding of the impacts of volcanism on climate, and the environment; and for his notable contributions to film, radio and popular writing that have reached audiences well beyond the realms of geoscience.
