Plenary Speaker Lockwood to Address Materials Aspect of Volcanoes at MRS Spring Meeting "Volcanoes have been my professional focus and passion for over 20 years," said volcanologist John P. "Jack" Lockwood, President and Chair of the Board of Geohazards Consultants International, Inc. (GCI). Lockwood will present his plenary talk, "Volcanoes: The Ultimate Materials Source," on Monday, April 13 at 6:00 p.m. in Salon 7, San Francisco Marriott, at the 1998 MRS Spring Meeting in San Francisco. In more than 15 years of volcanic-crisis and disaster assignments with the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and the USAID Office of Foreign Disaster Assistance (OFDA), Lockwood has studied dozens of volcanos, from Gamalama and Nyragongo to Mt. Pinatubo. Among his clients are the U.S. Air Force, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration (NOAA), and the U.S. Agency for International Development. In addition to overseeing the operations of GCI, a field-oriented company
based in Volcano, Hawaii, specializing in geohazards appraisals and risk reduction studies, especially in remote or less-developed areas, Lockwood serves as a technical advisor to media projects in film, video, and print. He was the lead scientific consultant for the recently released Universal Pictures film Dante's Peak. Lockwood holds a bachelor's degree in geology from the University of California— Riverside, and earned his PhD degree in geology from Princeton University in 1966. Since 1980 he has been an Adjunct Professor at the University of Hawaii, teaching volcanology classes. He is a fellow of the Geological Society of America, and a member of the International Association of Volcanology and Chemistry of the Earth's Interior, the American Geophysical Union, and Sigma Xi.
