************************************************************ From: Don R Baker <don.baker@xxxxxxxxx> ************************************************************ Hello, Please consider coming up to Toronto for Spring AGU and contributing to our special session: AGU Special Session V08: Advances in 3D Imaging and Analysis of Rocks and Other Earth Materials AGU Joint Assembly 2009, May 24–27, Toronto, Ontario, Canada (http://www.agu.org/meetings/ja09/) Abstract deadline: 4 March 2009 ________________________________________________________________________ Advances in 3D imaging and analysis of rocks and other Earth materials For more than a century, the analysis of rocks and other Earth materials has been based on observations and measurements in two dimensions using the petrographic microscope and more recently the electron microscope. Observing 3D objects using 2D sections inherently limits our ability to understand these materials. In recent years, several techniques have emerged that allow for imaging Earth materials in three dimensions, including x-ray, neutron, and electron tomography, confocal microscopy, and serial sectioning. We invite contributions addressing advances in imaging and analysis of Earth materials in three dimensions, including applications that make use of these techniques to unravel relevant geological processes. ============================================================== 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. ==============================================================
