Description: Volcanism has long been recognized as a driver of short-term (<10<sup>6</sup> yrs) and longterm (>=10<sup>6</sup> yrs) environmental change. Gaseous and aerosol emanations, the varying pressure of glacial loading, the recycling of seafloor carbonates have all been linked to Cenozoic climate evolution, whereas oceanic circulation and chemistry may be influenced by emplacement and erosion of large volumes of volcanic rocks. We invite papers on all aspects that relate volcanism and its products to the mechanisms of the ocean-atmosphere systems that shape the environment on Earth. Contributions that highlight causative links and assess the magnitude of the volcanic influence on environmental, and consequent biotic changes, throughout geological time are particularly welcome.
