My current focus is how to provide the hydrostratigraphy of volcanic aquifers in Bandung area. The research is based on environmental isotope measurement in groundwater and morphometry. My work consists of hydrochemical measurements. I am using multivariate statistical methods to provides more quantitative foundation for the analysis and more insight into the groundwater behavior, especially its interaction with surface water. I use open source apps like R and Python to do the job. In my spare time, I also have a side project to promote open science in Indonesia's research workflow. One of my current focus is promoting INARxiv, as the first preprint server of Indonesia (osf.io/preprints/inarxiv) and serving as ORCID and OSF (osf.io) ambassador. Research interest: Hydrochemistry, multivariate analysis, and R programming. Blog: dasaptaerwin.net, derwinirawan.wordpress.com. (https://orcid.org/0000-0002-1526-0863)
What are the different types of remote sensing techniques used to study volcanic activity?
There are several types of remote sensing techniques used to study volcanic activity, including[1][2]: These techniques, when used in combination, can provide valuable data for…
What are the causes of magmatic eruptions?
Magmatic eruptions are caused by the decompression of gas within magma, which propels it forward. There are several factors that contribute to magmatic eruptions, including[1][2]:…
What are the differences of phreatic and magmatic eruption?
Phreatic eruptions are known for their sudden onset, often with few or no precursors. However, some potential warning signs include[1] : It’s important to note…
What are the causes of phreatic eruption?
Phreatic eruptions are caused by the interaction of magma with water, either in the form of groundwater or surface water. The primary causes of phreatic…
Introduction to phreatic eruption
Phreatic eruptions are steam-driven explosions that occur when water beneath the ground or on the surface is heated by magma, lava, hot rocks, or new…
What are the advancements of technology to predict phreatic eruption?
The advancement of technology in predicting phreatic eruptions has been a subject of extensive research in recent years. Various studies have highlighted the challenges and…
What are the challenges in predicting magmatic eruptions?
Predicting magmatic eruptions is a complex and challenging task due to several factors: Despite the many challenges that scientists face, they remain dedicated to making…
What are the limitations of using remote sensing to predict magmatic eruptions?

Turning (geo)science into policy
Why is it important to turn (geo)science knowledge into policy?
Author: Dasapta Erwin Irawan (This blogpost is a preprint version)
Turning geoscience knowledge into policy is important for addressing complex environmental and societal challenges. Geoscience knowledge can be used to support policy and practice through dialogue and partnerships between geoscientists and other stakeholders (Gill & Bullough, 2017).
