We invite you to submit an abstract to the Active Lava Lakes session (session II.3) at the IAVCEI 2017 Scientific Assembly in Portland, Oregon on August 14-18.
Active lava lakes are the exposed top of a volcano's magmatic plumbing system. As such, they provide a valuable opportunity to observe directly volcanic processes that normally occur underground and out of sight. The complex behaviour exhibited by these lakes is undoubtedly caused by a combination of shallow processes occurring within the lake itself, and forcings from deeper processes occurring in the conduit and magma chamber(s) below. Deconvolving these different influences on lava lake behaviour is crucial to fully utilize them as a “easy access” laboratories for understanding volcanic behaviour more generally.
This session welcomes studies on all aspects of active lava lakes, both terrestrial and planetary.
Abstracts may be submitted here: http://iavcei2017.org/
The submission deadline is March 17, 2017.
Conveners:
