Tomofumi Kozono studies volcanic phenomena with theoretical and numerical approaches based on fluid dynamics. In particular, he is working on the basic physical processes that control the dynamics of magma ascent in volcanic conduits. He also manages the Japanese website of IVHHN and is standing in for Dr Yasuhiro Ishimine who has moved to a postdoctoral position at RIKEN (The Institute of Physical and Chemical Research) in Saitama, Japan to conduct computer simulations of fluid flows and particle deposition in the human lung.
