*********************************************************** From: Alison Shaw <ashaw@xxxxxxxx> *********************************************************** Dear Colleagues, We would like to draw your attention to the following session at the GAC-MAC/AGU Joint Assembly to be held in Toronto, May 24-27, 2009. Title: Earth’s Carbon Cycles: Sources, Sinks, Pathways, and Fluxes This session will address a renewed general interest in Earth’s carbon cycles using an Earth System Science approach. Carbon sources, sinks, reaction pathways, and fluxes will be discussed across multiple disciplines. This session will focus on, but is not limited to, identifying and quantifying mantle and crustal carbon reservoirs, biogenic and abiogenic reduction and oxidation reactions, and carbon sequestration processes, as well as the carbon fluxes between these sources, sinks and pathways. Studies using geochemical, experimental, geodynamical modeling, and molecular approaches relating to characterizing carbon sources, fractionating processes, recycling pathways and how carbon reservoirs have evolved through time, are all encouraged to apply. Our invited speakers include: 1) Steven B. Shirey of the Carnegie Institution of Washington 2) Thomas Stachel of the University of Alberta 3) Marc Hirschmann of the University of Minnesota 4) Everett Shock of Arizona State University Abstracts must be submitted no later than 4 March 2009, 2359 UT. Late abstracts will not be accepted. Complete submission guidelines can be found on the 2009 Joint Assembly Web site: http://www.agu.org/meetings/ja09/program/abstract_submissions.php Hope to see you in Toronto. Cheers, Alison Shaw and Penny Morrill ============================================================== 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. ==============================================================
