Lisbon Session
Our Lisbon session was held on 15 September, from 9am to 4pm, as the Subcommission Symposium
SSA-1: Advances in modern volcano seismology
Conveners:
in which we presented, together with original and new material, also the results and initiatives of our group from the last few years in a series
of review talks. Please refer to the ESC Assembly website for further information: http://www.igidl.ul.pt/esc2000/
Here you can find a spreadsheet in XLS format, containing the complete
list of participants to the Lisbon General Assembly (i.e., not only
the ones participating in our session).
The first session was organized in the framework of the XXVII
General Assembly of the European
Seismological Commission, which took place during September 10 - 15, 2000, in Lisbon.

Participants, Programme and Abstracts
A full list of the participants in both sessions.
The program for the Sao Miguel Session can be found here.
Abstracts for the Sao Miguel session are here.
The program and the abstracts of the Lisbon session were published in
the paper Proceedings of the ESC General Assembly.
With respect to the official printed program, we had a couple of modifications:
- the paper by Lombardo et al. was moved to the Sao Miguel session
(see below).
Accommodation and Location
On 16 September, we moved to the island of Sao Miguel,
in the Azores archipelago, for the rest of our workshop. As usual for our meetings, we stayed all together at the same hotel, which in this case was:
Hotel Bahia Palace
Conference Fee
As in all previous editions, NO FEE was required to participate. The costs were therefore limited to travel, food and lodging. This made possible the participation of students and young researchers as well. In this edition actually a small FEE was introduced: every participant had to bring a bottle of local wine from his/her own country. This allowed us to organize the first geophysical wine tasting session...
Excursions and Field Trips
We meet at volcanoes in order to visit them! The colleagues of Azores University Centre of Volcanology organized several fieldexcursions. We managed to visit the three main volcanic complexes of the island; Fogo, Sede Cidades and Furnas.
You can have a look at these wonderful green volcanoes on the website Stromboli On Line. During one of the field trips, a group photo was shot, that you can see above, courtesy of the author, Marco Fulle.
- the paper by Del Pezzo et al. was cancelled.
