Make sure that you have completed the case study sheet on the 1980 eruption of Mt St Helens by next wednesday . The sheet is available to download below for those of you who have lost it…
Useful links: good old Wikipedia ; an interesting virtual tour of the current crater.
I have also embedded a decent Youtube clip below (sounds like somebody’s school project… take note you lot.)
