Since late 2019, the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2; “covid-19”) had resulted in a severe global disruption, affecting all parts of the world and impacting nearly every aspect of life. This session is focused on both lessons learned from covid-19 response strategies that can be applied to volcanology, and how volcanic eruption pre-crisis planning and response, and volcanology more broadly has adapted in the time of covid-19. We particularly welcome contributions that focus on communication, crisis management, and interagency cooperation.
