'Large volcanic eruptions and their environmental impact'
General Assembly, Perugia, Italy, 2-13 July, 2007
Dear Colleague:
We would like to bring to your attention the session JSV001 at the next
IUGG General Assembly in Perugia, 2-13 July, 2007, on 'Large volcanic
eruptions and their environmental impact', which is a joint symposium
between IAVCEI and IAMAS. We have two convenors representing IAVCEI
(Self, Isaia) and one from IAMAS (Graf).
There has recently been considerable publicity focussed on large-volume
eruptions, particularly explosive "super-eruptions". We invite
contributions that deal with topics such as:
- Factors that contribute to the accumulation of large, eruptible magma
bodies, and the evolution and dynamics of such bodies.
- Volcanology of large volume eruptions(effusive and explosive),
including potential sites of future eruptions, and eruption prediction.
- Scaling problems going from known small eruptions to super-eruptions.
- Field-based studies of the climatic and environmental impact of large
eruptions.
- Atmospheric model-based assessments of the climatic and environmental
impact of large eruptions.
We welcome your contribution to the session. The conference website is:
http://www.iugg2007perugia.it/, and on-line abstract submission is now
active. The abstract deadline is 31 January, 2007. If you have any
questions, please contact one of the convenors.
