************************************************************************************************
Dear Colleagues,
We invite you to
consider submitting an abstract to the fall American Geophysical Union
session titled “Thermal Modeling of Terrestrial and Planetary Bodies”
(P030). We are excited to be convening this session, as it gives us all
an opportunity to share our science results and techniques with the
broad thermal modeling and thermal remote sensing community. Our hope
is that this session will foster communication and collaborations
between sub-disciplines, and those working on various planetary bodies,
including Earth. The planned foci of this session are four aspects of
thermal modeling: thermal inertia, ice stability and ice related
processes, volcanic processes (i.e., thermal emission, eruption rates,
lava cooling rates, cryovolcanism), and thermal modeling techniques in
general. Please see the below description for additional details, and
thank you in advance for your consideration.
AGU SESSION DESCRIPTION: Thermal modeling techniques
are used to understand a broad range of geologic and atmospheric
problems on solid planetary bodies, including but not limited to, Earth,
Europa, Io, Mars, and Titan. Examples of such problems include the
cooling of lava flows, volcano/geothermal monitoring, surface and near
sub-surface physical properties, crater deformation, and ice-rock
interactions. The techniques used to address thermal modeling-related
questions are often applicable across many disciplines, datasets, and
topics. By sharing scientific results and thermal modeling techniques
and applications from a broad range of sub-disciplines, we will foster
interdisciplinary collaboration and cooperation within the diverse
thermal modeling community.
