	Smithsonian Institution - Global Volcanism Program - http://www.volcano.si.edu/ The Global Volcanism Program (GVP) seeks better understanding of all volcanoes through documenting their eruptions during the past 10,000 years.
	The Electronic Volcano - http://www.dartmouth.edu/~volcano/ A pioneer site started by Professor Dick Stoiber at Dartmouth College providing information on active volcanoes. Not well updated since 1997, but older information is excellent.

	Igneous Geochemistry - http://www.geokem.com/ Compositions of volcanic and other igneous rocks in a world wide data base.
	Volcano Expedition From the Fields of Costa Rica - http://www.sio.ucsd.edu/volcano/ Detailed reports of research findings, video of scientists in action, and photographs of a Scripps-sponsored volcano field trip.

	Granular Volcano Group - http://www.granular-volcano-group.org Site for understanding granular flows (pyroclastic flows), fluid dynamic, supercomputer modeling, grain features and behaviors in Volcanology, Physics and Geophysics.
	Lake Nyos, Cameroon, West Africa - http://pagesperso-orange.fr/mhalb/nyos/ Eruption of carbon dioxide from Lake Nyos killed hundreds. A controlled degassing experiment is planned to reduce this hazard.

	Killer lake Nyos in Africa - http://pagesperso-orange.fr/mhalb/nyos/nyos.htm Carbon dioxide gas outbursts from lakes Nyos and Monoun in Cameroon, West Africa, killed hundreds of people. A controlled degassing operation is scheduled to begin in January, 2001, for reducing the risk of future carbon dioxide suffocation from these killer lakes.
