Fall AGU Session: Bridging the Volcanic and Plutonic Perspectives of
Silicic Magma Evolution
*************************************************************************
From: Jorge Vazquez <jvazquez@xxxxxxxx>
Dear colleagues,
We would like to bring to your attention the following session to be
held during the Fall Meeting of the American Geophysical Union, December
11-15, 2006, in San Francisco, USA. The abstract submission deadline is
September 7. For more information: http://www.agu.org/meetings/fm06/
V10 Bridging the Volcanic and Plutonic Perspectives of Silicic Magma
Evolution
Technical advances in recent years have vastly improved our ability to
apply geochronometers and geothermometers to silicic magma systems, but
also raised questions as to what these dates mean in relation to the
long-term development and maintenance of silicic magma reservoirs. When
coupled with geothermometery, geochronology can potentially provide a
wealth of information on the thermal evolution of magma reservoirs. For
this session, we invite contributions that address new and innovative
techniques linking the plutonic and volcanic evolution of silicic
magmatic systems and their thermo-chemical evolution. We encourage
examples from both the volcanic and plutonic realms (or examples where
both are preserved), and studies that utilize a variety of techniques,
such as high-precision TIMS and/or microbeam dating of zircon (and other
magmatic accessory phases), Ti-in-zircon geothermometry, and use of
other thermochronometers to help constrain the T-t evolution of silicic
magma systems.
Sincerely,
