Colleagues,
Please consider contributing to the following session at the 2013 Fall AGU Meeting. Abstract deadline is Tuesday August 6.
Section/Focus Group:
Volcanology, Geochemistry, and Petrology (V)
Ocean Sciences (OS)
Tectonophysics (T)
Conveners:
• Adam Kent: Oregon State University adam.kent@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
• Erin Todd: United States Geological Survey etodd@xxxxxxxx
• Gene Yogodzinski: University of South Carolina gyogodzin@xxxxxxxxxxx
• Michelle Coombs: U.S. Geological Survey mcoombs@xxxxxxxx
Invited Speakers:

• Andrew Calvert: Simon Fraser University
• Terry Plank: Columbia University, Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory
• Brandon Schmandt: University of New Mexico
Session Description:
The dynamics of plate interactions play a key role in controlling magma genesis and evolution in subduction systems. The age and thickness of the subducting plate, convergence rates, sediment loads and lithospheric stresses can all play important roles in the controlling the compositions of arc magmas and their modes of transport and evolution from source to surface. The current GeoPRISMS focus sites of Alaska-Aleutian, Cascadia and Taupo-Tonga systems encompass a range of subduction styles. We seek contributions that focus on magma genesis, transport and storage, eruption dynamics and related Earth-surface processes in these subduction systems. Studies that link geochemical, geophysical and geologic observations or that highlight arc evolution or the role of volatiles are especially encouraged.
