This page outlines the resarch of the Mineralogy, Volcanology, Geochemistry and Petrology Research G

The Mineralogy, Volcanology, Geochemistry and Petrology Group at Missouri State University interests include applying isotopes to conventional and novel topics in earth science and related fields. Our research centers on the behavior of magma in and on the Earth's crust as deduced from field relationships and the chemical analysis of rocks and minerals. Our work stands to further the understanding

Folks coming on re-opening weekend should expect lots of traffic, very limited parking, long lines, and large crowds throughout the park. And don't forget to bring 3-4 quarts of drinking water, there is no potable water in the park.
