Hi John, Thank you for sharing your superb experience on Mount Erebus! -Great images of the lava lake in one of your recent posts! -John, you may have previously addressed this, so I apologize if that is the case, but have you/Dr. Phillip Kyle observed evidence/is there any MEVO II seismicity variation evidence that would support pronounced or accelerated seasonal seismicity during the Austral Spring/Summer that might correlate with climate change?

Thank you once again and Happy Holidays to you John, to Dr. Kyle, and to your entire research team. Be Well, Ben Smith Environmental Science teacher Peninsula High School California

Hello Ben,
Thanks for the comments.  At this time, and in this location, we have not observed any measurable relationship between the seismic activity of the mountain with climate composition.  If you have any more focused questions, we may be able to  provide better informatio.  In the meantime, thanks for getting involved, have a wonderful holiday season, and give our best to the students.
Cheers,
John
