********************************************************************* From: Johanna Schwarz <Johanna.Schwarz@xxxxxxx> ********************************************************************* IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science (EES) Now online and available for free: Proceedings of the COLLAPSE CALDERAS WORKSHOP held in October 2008 in Querétaro, Mexico. http://www.iop.org/EJ/toc/1755-1315/3/1 IOP Publishing is pleased to announce that the COLLAPSE CALDERAS WORKSHOP proceedings have been published as the third volume of the new open access IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science (EES). Caldera-formation is one of the most awe-inspiring and powerful displays of nature's force. Since volcanoes and their eruptions are the surface manifestation of magmatic processes, calderas provide key insights into the generation and evolution of large-volume silicic magma bodies in the Earth's crust. Despite their potentially ferocious nature, calderas play a crucial role in modern society's life. Collapse calderas host essential economic deposits and supply power for many via the exploitation of geothermal reservoirs, and thus receive considerable scientific, economic and industrial attention. This multi-disciplinary workshop with the title `Reconstructing the evolution of collapse calderas: Magma storage, mobilisation and eruption' covered five thematic topics: geology, geochemistry/petrology, structural analysis/modelling, geophysics, and hazards. The workshop represents the key activity of the IAVCEI Commission on Collapse Calderas in 2008. An editorial about the conference and all 32 proceedings articles are permanently free to read at: http://www.iop.org/EJ/toc/1755-1315/3/1 For any comments or queries about these proceedings, or for further information about the publishing in IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, please contact: Dr Johanna Schwarz Publishing Editor IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science IOP Publishing Dirac House, Temple Back Bristol BS1 6BE, UK Tel: +44-(0)117-930-1195 Fax: +44-(0)117-920-0710 E-mail: johanna.schwarz@xxxxxxx Web: http://conferenceseries.iop.org/ees ============================================= Meet us at stand 2153 at the AGU Fall Meeting 2008, to discuss the best publication options for your proceedings! ============================================================== To unsubscribe from the volcano list, send the message: signoff volcano to: listserv@xxxxxxx, or write to: volcano-request@xxxxxxxx To contribute to the volcano list, send your message to: volcano@xxxxxxxx Please do not send attachments. ==============================================================
