Welcome to the “I Am A..." series, a whiteboard animation video series highlighting USGS careers.
I Am A...Volcanologist
Detailed Description
Welcome to the “I Am A..." series, a whiteboard animation video series highlighting USGS careers. The concept is to show "what society (or my mom) thinks I do" compared with "what I really do." One image captures a more whimsical representation of a "scientist" in a particular field and the second demonstrates a more accurate representation of what that professional really “looks” like at work.
This video is about a volcanologist (i.e. someone who studies volcanoes and eruptions).
Volcanologist:
Vulcan = Roman god of fire
vulcano = “burning mountain”
-ology = “study of”
-ist = “person”
(i.e. “studier of burning mountains”)
