Dear colleagues,
We would like to draw your attention on our session at the next Fall AGU meeting (15-19 December 2014, San Francisco). The session is entitled "Estimating the durations and rates of magmatic processes using geochronology"
We welcome a broad range of contributions that utilize our ability to accurately and precisely measure time throughout geological history, with a specific emphasis on the Cenozoic and Quaternary. We also encourage contributions focusing on instrumental and analytical advances, or on improving and quantifying accuracy, precision and reproducibility.
The AGU abstract submission tool is now open. Abstract submissions close on 6th August 2014 at 23:59 (23:59 EDT/03:59 +1 GMT)

Session ID#: 2820
Session Description:
This session aims at highlighting recent advances in geochronology, particularly in estimating the duration of magmatism, the rates and the tempo of magma emplacement in the Earth’s crust, as well as in gaining insight into and quantifying the physical characteristics of magma. We welcome a broad range of contributions that utilize our ability to accurately and precisely measure time throughout geological history, with a specific emphasis on the Cenozoic and Quaternary. We encourage contributions focusing on instrumental and analytical advances, or on improving and quantifying accuracy, precision and reproducibility. Topics may include innovative applications for a range of bulk and in situ dating techniques, such as, e.g., U-series, U/Pb, Ar/Ar, 14C, Rb/Sr, Re/Os, and/or intercalibrations between these and other techniques. We especially encourage contributions that combine radio-isotopic dating with chemical and isotopic information to reconstruct the temporal development and chemical-physical evolution of magmatic systems at a variety of scales.
