Benjamin R. Edwards studies the interactions between volcanoes and ice, examining how glaciers and eruptions influence each other over time. His work spans field studies of glaciovolcanic deposits, how melting or growing ice sheets affect magma storage beneath volcanoes, and how volcanic activity can change glacier movement, with case studies in Iceland, Chile, Alaska, and Canada.
