Dear Colleagues:
Please consider submitting an abstract to the Fall AGU Meeting Special Session V010 entitled “Bridgin
Section/Focus Group: Volcanology, Geochemistry and Petrology

Co-Conveners: Jeffrey Karson (Syracuse University), Benjamin Edwards (Dickinson College), Arianna Soldati (University of Missouri), Ulrich Kueppers (Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich)
Session Description:
Effusive and explosive volcanic eruptions are the result of a complex interplay of numerous physical and chemical parameters that can be difficult or dangerous to quantify in the field. Accordingly, the past decade has seen many efforts to bridge the gap between observational field volcanology and laboratory-based analog and numerical studies. Some of the most promising avenues are large-scale (decimeters to meters) experiments designed to simulate natural magmatic processes including magma ascent, eruption and transport. For this session we solicit contributions on the latest designs for such large-scale experiments and their findings. Presentations may cover any type of volcanic process and/or studies focused on understanding how scaling laws determine the applicability of extrapolating experimental results to natural-scale phenomena.
Comments:
We are currently discussing the possibility of presenting large-scale (meters) lava flow demonstrations at the AGU Fall meeting with representatives of the AGU and Convention Center. If successful, we will try to link this special session to those demonstrations.
The abstract submission site will open on Wednesday, 13 June. The deadline for all submissions is Wednesday, 1 August 23:59 EDT. Abstracts will not be accepted for review after this date.
