Colleagues,
We are pleased to present a 2-day workshop on the Magma Chamber Simulator (MCS) at the annual Geological Society of America meeting in Seattle. Please see below if you are interested in joining us.
Title: The Magma Chamber Simulator, a phase equilibria modelling tool for magma recharge, crustal assimilation and crystallization (RAFC)
Conveners/affiliations/emails:
Wendy Bohrson, Central Washington University, Bohrson@xxxxxxxxxx
Frank Spera, University of California, Santa Barbara, spera@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
Jussi Heinonen, University of Helsinki, jussi.s.heinonen@hel
Guy Brown, Rocking Hoarse Professional Services, guyanthonybrown@yaho
Description of workshop: The Magma Chamber Simulator is an energy- and mass-constrained computer code (Bohrson et al. 2014) that simultaneously models recharge/magma mixing, crustal assimilation and crystal fractionation (RAFC). The first day of this workshop will involve participants doing hands-on exercises that will familiarize them with running the Magma Chamber Simulator (input, steps to run code), and archiving and effectively utilizing output. The second day will involve modelling specific scenarios (e.g., RAFC, AFC, RFC) so participants can develop an understanding of how to effectively model RAFC using their own data or data provided by conveners.
If you are already familiar with MCS, but wish to gain more expertise, we will provide small group/individualized instruction during this workshop.
Undergraduate and graduate students are welcome.
When and Where: Friday and Saturday, 20 and 21 October, ~8 am to 5 PM, Sheraton Seattle (conference hotel)
Cost: $120.00. Register for the workshop via the GSA website.
