Preface

*Updates in Volcanology - Transdisciplinary Nature of Volcano Science* is a new addition to the successful Updates in Volcanology book series that includes three other volumes: *A Comprehensive Approach to the Volcanological Problems*, *New Advances in Understanding Volcanic Systems*, and *From Volcano Modelling to Volcano Geology*. These previous books discuss the evolution of volcano science in the last 10 years, providing unstructured snapshots of research outputs of a diverse array of subject areas. The evolution of book titles and their contents reflect the changes of research

Chapters from the previous three volumes in the series garnered many downloads and citations, including Web of Science citations (**Table 1**). While books are not measured and observed in the same way as scientific journals, it is evident that the

The main subjects of the previously published books indicate a general trend within volcano science toward more volcanic system-based research in which various disciplines are utilized to understand volcanism in general. The current volume is no exception. It provides interesting transdisciplinary aspects of volcano science.

The book *Updates in Volcanology - Transdisciplinary Nature of Volcano Science* is divided into five sections: 1)"Introduction"; 2) "Source and Magmatic Plumbing Systems"; 3) "Monogenetic Volcanism"; 4) "Complex and Polygenetic Volcanism"; and 5) "Volcanic Geoheritage and Geotourism." The seventeen chapters represent cover also a broad array of geographical array of works from Australia, Azerbaijan, Canary Islands (Spain), Chile, China, Colombia, Hungary, Mexico, Morocco, New Zealand, and Salvador. The chapters are a good mixture of technical papers and broad overviews of novel ideas. Overall, the book reflects well the current trends in volcanology, and we hope readers will find the information contained herein useful.
