From: Nico Fournier <n.fournier@xxxxxxxxxx>Call for papers: "Stress, strain and mass changes at volcanoes" JGR special section
************************************************************************************************
Dear colleagues,
We would like to draw your attention to a Journal of Geophysical Research special volume on "Stress, strain and mass changes at volcanoes". Following a very successful session at the IAVCEI2013 conference in Kagoshima and an exciting first set of contributors, we would now like to extend the invitation to contribute to any of you conducting research in this field.
The submission window is now open and will close in August 2014. Please note that submitted manuscripts will follow the regular JGR reviewing process. Manuscripts will be published online as soon as they are accepted and will become part of the volume upon publication.
Please find below the volume abstract and information from the AGU JGR website. Do not hesitate to contact us should you have any question or if you are interested in submitting a manuscript to this special section.
Regards,
Nico Fournier and Yosuke Aoki

Call for Papers for “Stress, strain and mass changes at volcanoes"
Submission acceptance begins 1 August 2013
Guest Editors: Nicolas Fournier and Yosuke Aoki
A major goal of current volcanological research is the identification of reliable precursors to the onset of unrest, or to changes in an ongoing unrest episode. The main objective of this special section is to highlight and integrate a wide range of observations and modelling of phenomena that may be linked to temporal changes in stress, strain and mass changes at varying timescales at active volcanoes. These include - but are not limited to - ground deformation approaches (e.g., GPS, InSAR), studies of variations in gravity and magnetic fields, analysis of changes in seismic wave speeds, earthquake fault and slip orientation, and seismic anisotropy analyses. Quantitative combinations of such techniques can yield unprecedented insights into magma migration through the edifice, volcano-tectonic interactions or hydrothermal unrest. Ultimately, they may not only improve our understanding of the processes controlling or accompanying volcanic unrest, but also guide the development of effective volcano monitoring strategies.
Manuscripts are to be submitted through the AGU's Geophysical Electronic Manuscript Submissions System (GEMS) Web site for JGR-Solid Earth. For additional information, please email Pamela Calliham at pcalliham(at)agu.org.
