Centre for the Observation and Modelling of Earthquakes, Volcanoes and Tectonics
Abstract
The Centre for the Observation and Modelling of Earthquakes, Volcanoes and Tectonics (COMET+) represents the Dynamic Earth and Geohazards research group within the National Centre for Earth Observation (NCEO)'s Theme 6 during NCEO phase 1. NCEO phase 1 was is funded by the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC). NCEO phase 2 no longer has the theme 6 within its remit, though COMT+ continues within NERC.
COMET+ involves scientists from the University of Oxford, University of Cambridge, University of Leeds, University of Bristol, University oSf Glasgow, University of Reading, and University College London. We aim to combine satellite observations of Earth's surface movements, topography and gas release with terrestrial observations and modelling to advance understanding of the earthquake cycle, continental deformation and volcanic eruptions, and to quantify seismic and volcanic hazards.
