Dear colleagues,
Apologies for
cross-posting. We would like to draw your attention to the following
session at the AGU2016 Fall meeting (San Francisco, 12-16 December
2016):
V021: New insights on igneous and metamorphic processes from non-traditional thermobarometers and geospeedometers
Session Description:
Within the last decade,
a variety of new techniques have emerged to better constrain the
formation history of minerals and rocks from the shallow crust to the
mantle. These approaches utilize experimentally- and
empirically-determined thermodynamic, kinetic, and physical properties
to retrieve information on the conditions and rates of igneous and
metamorphic processes. The introduction of new techniques has
necessitated
a re-evaluation of results from conventional approaches and also opens
the possibility to add new insights to previously-studied problems. We
welcome presentations on the development and application of emerging
techniques for quantifying the pressure, temperature,
and/or temporal history of geologic events. Presentations on the
development of such non- traditional thermobarometers and
geospeedometers, and comparisons of results with more established
techniques in both nature and experiment are especially welcome.
Conveners: Steve Kidder, Matt Kohn, Jay Thomas, Will Nachlas
Invited Speaker: Mark Ghiorso
Session ID#: 13387
We hope that you will
consider submitting an abstract to this session. The abstract submission
deadline is Wednesday 3 August, 11:59 pm EDT.
Sincerely,
Steve Kidder
