AGU 2010 Session: V26 The Constraint of Magma and Gas Transport by Geophysical and Geochemical Data
From: Fred Witham <fred.witham@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Dear colleagues,
We would like to announce and invite submissions to the Fall AGU session:
V26. The Constraint of Magma and Gas Transport by Geophysical and Geochemical Data
Conveners: Fred Witham, Thierry Menand, James Hammond (University of Bristol); Juliet Biggs (University of Oxford)
Theoretical, computational and analogue models have elucidated the mass transport processes in volcanic systems. Validation of these models is of utmost importance to improve volcano monitoring and hazard assessment strategies. Geophysical techniques (e.g. seismology, INSAR, strain measurement) and geochemical measurements (e.g. gas fluxes and compositions, melt inclusion chemistry) have the potential to constrain models of magma and gas transport.
Data acquisition techniques should be tailored to the needs of modellers. Likewise, models should seek to incorporate and test against field data. Through the trans-disciplinary exchange of ideas we aim to identify strategies to better unify these complementary fields. We particularly seek applications highlighting how the integration of models and data from all volcanological disciplines has been performed, and how it could be improved in the future.
Index terms: 8430, 8419, 8494, 0545, 7280
Abstract submissions are scheduled to open on 21 July and close on 2 September. Please check the AGU website (http://www.agu.org/meetings/fm10/) for updates.
Best wishes,
Fred, Thierry, James and Juliet
