Volcanic Notes
Western District Volcanic Province, Victoria, Australia.
The CD-ROM (from which these files are derived) contains a variety of handouts and other material describing volcanic features in the Western District of Victoria, Australia. These are mainly in PDF format. A detailed list of contents appears later on this page.
The Handouts are intended for the "intelligent layman", and permission is given for Tourist Information Centres and Schools etc. to print copies of these for free distribution to their customers or students.
The Slide Show comprises a PDF fie of "speaker notes" of a training session given to the volunteers at the Penshurst Volcanic Discovery Centre in April 2008. Permission is given for these images to be used by teachers in lessons at their school. Note that some of these images are not my own, and contain copyright notes referring to other authors.
If you wish to reproduce all or part of any of these documents or images in any "published" form (i.e. not for individual or student use) please contact me at the address given below to discuss copyright etc.
