Goldschmidt 2012, Session 4b - The occurrence, genesis and evolution of alkaline magmas
From: Glenn Gaetani <ggaetani@xxxxxxxx>
*****************************************************************************************
Dear Colleagues,
I would like to bring to your attention session 4b "The occurrence, genesis and evolution of alkaline magmas" at the Goldschmidt Conference being held in Montreal on 24th-29th June. The keynote speaker for the session is Sébastien Pilet from the University of Luasanne. A summary of the session is as follows:
Alkaline volcanism occurs in oceanic and continental intraplate and rift settings and more rarely along convergent margins. In the session we will examine the similarities and differences in the occurrence, genesis and magmatic evolution of alkaline magmas from geochemical, petrologic and geophysical perspectives. We encourage contributions that involve a range of different approaches to understanding alkaline magmas including field studies, experiments, geochemical and isotopic measurements, and numerical modeling.
We hope that you will consider submitting an abstract to our session. The deadline for abstract submission is 1 February. Submission details are available at http://www.vmgoldschmidt.org/2012/abstracts.htm
