We would like to draw your attention to the new session GMPV4.8/CL1.34 at the next EGU General Assembly (8-13 April 2018, Vienna):
“Arctic & Antarctic volcanism – magmatic, tectonic and palaeoenvironmental aspects & linkages”.
Conveners: Adelina Geyer, John Smellie, Kristin Vogfjord, Morten Riishuus
As a reminder, the deadline for abstract submission is 10 January 2018, 13:00 CET. You can submit your abstracts here: http://meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU2018/session/27177
Session description:
The Polar Regions contain an unusually broad diversity of volcanism, including subduction-related continental-margin volcanism & ridge subduction, oceanic volcanic arcs, mid-ocean ridges and ocean ridge—plume interaction. They also contain two of the world’s largest alkaline volcanic provinces; voluminous products of Jurassic & Cenozoic plume-driven continental breakup magmatism; and unrivalled & largely untapped terrestrial records of Neogene ice sheet interactions and climate during the Palaeogene ‘Hothouse’. Bipolar volcanism is thus widespread and situated at tectonically and environmentally strategic locations. The products are outstanding probes of the Earth’s inaccessible lithospheric interior, they accurately record Earth’s past climatic changes and the volcanic heat produced by subglacial and MOR eruptions has the potential to modulate cryosphere behaviour and influence future global change. Polar volcanic studies are thus crucial for a holistic understanding of the palaeoenvironmental, palaeoclimatic and geological evolution of our planet, in space and in time.
We invite contributions discussing recent advances in all aspects of Polar volcanism, particularly wide-ranging reviews of entire Polar-focussed volcanic topics or those discussing important regional or thematic issues. The goal is to host a broad-spectrum discussion at any scale. Of particular interest are possible linkages between Polar volcanism and crustal, lithospheric or mantle processes occurring at all scales up to planetary; and volcanism and environmental development, including the growth and stability of ice sheets and documenting the Polar hothouse world.
Bests Regards,
Adelina Geyer, John Smellie, Kristin Vogfjord, Morten Riishuus
