Tempest Anderson

Tempest Anderson (7 December 1846–26 August 1913)) was an ophthalmic surgeon at York County Hospital in the United Kingdom, and an expert amateur photographer and vulcanologist.

He was a member of the Royal Society Commission which was appointed to investigate the aftermath of the eruptions of Soufriere volcano, St Vincent and Mont Pelee, Martinique, West Indies which both erupted in May 1902.

Some of his photographs of these eruptions were subsequently published in his book, Volcanic Studies in Many Lands.
