Happy first birthday to Eruptions

Dr Erik Klemetti’s flourishing Eruptions blog is one year old today! In that year, Eruptions has become an essential resource for everyone interested in volcanoes and what they are up to. By way of a blogiversary tribute, here’s my choice of five great Eruptions posts:

• 194 years since the great Tambora eruption – 10 April 2009
• Discovery’s Top 10 volcanoes and MSNBC’s “volcanoes by dummies” – 27 March 2009
• Redoubt, oil and corporations: a tale of volcanic mitigation (or lack thereof) – 31 January 2009
• Repairing after eruption: the Waimangu Valley and Mt. Tarawera – 19 January 2009
• Condiments nail down Pliny’s Vesuvius eruption date – 29 September 2008

Happy Birthday to Eruptions, and congratulations to Erik on a year of well-deserved blogging success.
