AGU 2010 Session: V11 Volcanism at Chaitén Volcano

Dear all,
Please consider submitting relevant abstracts to the following Fall AGU session:
V11: The Causes and Consequences of Rhyolite Volcanism at Chaitén Volcano, Southern Chile
The May 2008-present eruption of Chaitén volcano, Chile, is the first high-silica rhyolite eruption to have been monitored, and the only one to be witnessed and well described in decades. Hence, abundant new data has emerged concerning eruption mechanisms at silicic volcanoes and the immediate impacts of Chaitén's eruption on surrounding ecological and fluvial systems. This session will foster multidisciplinary exchange among workers researching this unique volcano. We encourage papers that synthesize eruption monitoring, biological, hydrological, remote sensing and geological field observations, laboratory investigations, and synoptic studies of the current and pre-historic eruptions at Chaitén.
Conveners: Jonathan Castro (Monash University; jonathan.castro@xxxxxxxxxx), John Pallister (USGS; jpallist@xxxxxxxx), Alvaro Amigo (SERNAGEOMIN; aamigo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx), Fred Swanson (Forestry Sciences Lab, OSU; fred.swanson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx)
Abstract submissions are open from 21 July to 2 September. Please see the AGU website (http://www.agu.org/meetings/fm10/) for more details. Looking forward to seeing you at AGU.
Regards,
Jon, John, Alvaro, and Fred
