Dear Colleagues
On behalf of the hosting geochemical community from the Institute of
Volcanology and Seismology and Russian Academy of Sciences (RAS) we are
happy to invite the international geochemical scientific group working on
volcanic gases to participate in the 2011 Gas Field Workshop to be held in
Kamchatka, Russia, in August-September 2011.
The main topics of the workshop are the intercomparison of results of the
simultaneous geochemical sampling, remote sensing methods and discussions of
the current theories and observations related to volcano degassing.
The program will include a short scientific meeting focused on geochemistry
of volcanic gases and fluxes of magmatic volatiles through volcanoes. The
main topics will be:
*Conference*
1. New techniques, including direct sampling, “multigas” and automation
approaches, remote field spectroscopy, satellite imaging for measurement of
volcanic gas and aerosol composition, measurements of fluxes in fumaroles,
diffuse emissions and plumes.
2. Modeling frameworks for interpretation of volcanic (magmatic) and
hydrothermal fluid geochemistry
3. The effect of volcanic plumes on atmospheric chemistry; hazards and
environmental and human health impacts of volcanic degassing.
4. Modelling approaches related to plume-atmosphere interaction.
*Field*
1. Direct sampling of fluids emitted from fumaroles.
2. Measurements of soil degassing
3. Plume measurements
We invite you to download the first circular, where you can find full
