Subject: AGU Fall Meeting Session V012: Chemistry, Mechanics, Geophysics, and Timescales of Magmatic Processe
************************************************************ ****************************** *********************
Dear colleagues,
We urge you to consider submitting abstracts to AGU Fall Meeting session V012: Chemistry, Mechanics, Geophysics, and Timescales of Magmatic Processes, using the following link: https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm18/prelim.cgi/Session/54000
Revealing the volumes, mechanics, chemistry, and temporal evolution of magma bodies in the Earth’s lithosphere, and how they contribute to its architecture and dynamics requires integration of multiple types of observations, and cross-disciplinary collaboration among geologists, geochemists, petrologists, geochronologists, volcanologists, and geophysicists. We aim to bring together researchers from across these disciplines to probe questions including how we:
- detect magma bodies and determine their volume and geometry
- quantify time-integrated chemical, mechanical, and thermal processes
- determine the frequency of magma injections, dykes, and/or melt extraction events
- interrogate minerals, glasses and melts, or volatile emissions, to constrain the timescales and location of magmatic processes
- decipher signs of volcanic unrest with respect to magmatic processes
We encourage researchers using field studies, geophysical observations, laboratory analysis, modelling, and/or experimental simulations on any scale to better understand magmatic processes to submit contributions to this session.
Conveners:
Mattia Pistone, University of Lausanne
Benoît Taisne, Earth Observatory of Singapore, NTU Singapore
Brad S Singer, University of Wisconsin-Madison
Meredith Townsend, Brown University
For the first time, the AGU Fall Meeting will be held in Washington, D.C., where we will mark the launch AGU’s Centennial. A wide variety of events are being planned that will take advantage of this special location that will showcase our science to the U.S. and international policy community, students, and public); leverage the local scientific community, including events with the Smithsonian, National Academies, and others; and, offer field trips to view the local geology and research institutes. The Fall Meeting will also offer more workshops as well as new Tutorial sessions to help students and researchers learn about new approaches and techniques and introduce exciting science in other disciplines.
Additional information, including everything you need to know about abstract submission is here: https://fallmeeting.agu.org/2018/ . Please consider submitting an abstract and/or attending to help show “What Science Stands For” and to join in an exciting and informative start to AGU’s Centennial. Submissions received by the early deadline of 25 July have a chance to win a $100 US gift card.
Looking forward to receiving your contributions and seeing many of you at the AGU meeting,
