Physical processes involved with volatile cycling in subduction zones - Invitation to contribute papers
From: Georg Zellmer <gzellmer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
****************************************************************************************
Dear colleagues and friends,
The Geological Society of London has recently accepted our Special Publication proposal on "The Role of Volatiles in the Genesis, Evolution and Eruption of Arc Magmas", with paper submission target date in mid 2013.
The book will tentatively be divided into three sections:
A. Volatiles in the subducting slab, mantle wedge and overriding crust
B. Volatile-controlled subvolcanic processes and eruption triggering
C. Magmatic volatile release into the atmosphere
Our present set of contributions are dominated by geochemical perspectives. We are therefore looking for a few additional papers regarding the physical processes involved with volatile cycling in subduction zones, to gain a somewhat more balanced approach.
If you think that you can provide some insights on the physics of the volatile transfer from subducting slab through mantle wedge and overriding crust into the atmosphere, or any part of this pathway, please feel free to suggest a contribution by emailing a tentative list of authors, tentative title, and a short abstract.
In the GSL Special Publications series, accepted papers can be published online before the book is complete, so that to become available, early submissions do not have to wait for the slowest contributing authors. Further, these volumes are now included in the ISI Web of Science, which will reference GSL SPs from 2008 onward. Scopus also references GSL SPs. Three (3) free colour figures are allowed in the print version for each paper, and any number of figures can be in colour for free in the online version. Submission is done online, and GSL allows for publication of electronic appendices. For an idea about the format of GSL SPs, you may check the following volume as an example: http://sp.lyellcollection.org/content/vol304/issue1/
Best wishes,
Georg Zellmer
