Dear colleagues,
Many of
you probably know something about the plumbing in your house. But how
about the plumbing of a volcano? Now is your chance to share your
knowledge, be it from geophysical experiments, geological field
investigations, remote sensing, or modeling studies!
AGU session V035. Volcanic plumbing systems
Crustal
magmatic plumbing systems at restless and erupting volcanoes are well
manifested in geophysical and geochemical data and yield insights into
the characteristics of magma storage and transport. At extinct systems
that have been exposed by erosion, geological studies provide direct
evidence of the shapes and sizes of subvolcanic feeders while also
preserving the end result of dynamic subsurface processes. While
geophysics and geochemistry are increasingly used in concert to
investigate active volcanic systems, synergy with geologic studies of
extinct volcanoes is lacking. We aim to address this discrepancy by
bringing together scientists from all disciplines to focus on the
general problem of understanding shallow volcanic plumbing systems, and
we hope to foster discussions that will lead to a better appreciation of
how investigations of active and extinct systems can inform one another
and result in a more complete understanding of the characteristics of
shallow magma storage and transport.
