The JKASP-2009 meeting will be held in Fairbanks, Alaska during the

The Kurile-Kamchatka-Aleutian volcanic arcs are among the least
understood in the world. Yet, their high level of activity and
continuity across continental and oceanic lithosphere provide an
exceptional opportunity to understand the linkages among tectonism,
magma genesis, and eruption that characterize subduction zones. This
continuing series of meetings seeks to build a vital international
geoscience community in the North Pacific, while at the same time
drawing upon insights from workers in other areas. A special emphasis
of the forthcoming meeting will be on the hazards posed by arc
volcanism and great subduction zone earthquakes (including tsunamis).
The intent of the meeting is to nurture productive collaborations in
monitoring of and research into subduction zone processes, both
between geoscientists in Alaska and in the remainder of the United
States, and between those of the US and its North Pacific neighbors.
