Dear colleagues,


As reported and advertised in this listserve by Kristina Walowski and Kenny Befus (thank you for being so inclusive), this next AGU in New Orleans there will be four sessions dedicated to fluid, melt, and mineral inclusions (or a combination of them):

1-Spectroscopic analyses of mineral inclusions for petrologic investigations 
2-Earth’s volatiles fluxes preserved in fluid and melt inclusions   (this is the one I co-convene)
3-Microscale archives of macroscale igneous processes   
4-What can inclusions tell us?  
 
GSA will also host a session dedicated to the fluid and melt inclusion technique.

There is only one day left to submit an abstract to this session. Below you can find the specifics of our session.



Kind regards,

Rosario




GSA: T152. Fluids and melts in geologic systems
Conveners: Pilar Lecumberri-Sanchez, Matthew Steele-MacInnis, Rosario Esposito, Andras Fall


Invited speakers: Jim Webster (American Museum of National History), Martin Appold (University of Missouri) and Don Hall (Fluid Inclusion Technologies, Schlumberger).


Fluids provide the most efficient mean to transport heat and matter within Earth's crust. The chemical nature and physical properties of these fluids is highly variable encompassing compositions that include aqueous, hydrocarbon and silicate fluids. Fluids occur in one way or another in most geological settings and are a very powerful tool to interpret geological conditions (e.g.: as thermobarometers, recording magma degassing, or oil migration). In addition, fluid-fluid and fluid-rock interaction is key to interpretation of geological processes such as magmatic evolution, ore deposit formation and oil generation. While many of these processes occur in the realm of one of these fluid types, many critical processes occur at the interface between several of them (e.g.: magmatic-hydrothermal transition/magma degassing or aqueous-hydrocarbon migration). This session will explore recent experimental, theoretical, and analytical advances in processes related to geologic fluids.
