Shawn Willsey

Field-based geology education and commentary focused on active Earth processes — especially real-time geologist analyses of volcanic activity (eruptions, lava fountains, magma intrusion) and seismic events (earthquake swarms). Videos combine on-site rock/roadcut fieldwork and lecture-style explanations, often applying satellite imagery and monitoring data to interpret ongoing events in the western US and internationally (e.g., Hawaii, Iceland).
