Dear Colleagues,

Please consider submitting an abstract to the following session to be held
at the AGU Fall Meeting in Washington, D.C., on December 10-14, 2018:

*V006: "Applications of Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) to the study of
volcanic systems"*

*Session Details and Abstract Submission*:  https://agu.confe
x.com/agu/fm18/prelim.cgi/Session/47395

*Deadline for all submissions is Wednesday, August 1 at 23:59 Eastern US
Time.*

*Session Description:*
Observing volcanoes and collecting near-vent measurements can be both
difficult and dangerous. Eruptive activity may prohibit access to regions
near the volcano or destroy deployed equipment. Other locations can simply
be impractical to reach. Thus, volcanoes are often monitored and studied
with an incomplete data set. Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS), commonly
referred to as drones, are now bridging the gap between direct and remote
measurements by enabling observations and in-plume measurements from a safe
and accessible distance. Recent developments in UAS technology, matched by
a drive towards increasingly lightweight and compact sensor payloads, have
made their use more accessible to new users while simultaneously increasing
their capability in terms of flight time, range, and instrumentation. To
bring together the growing community of researchers using, or seeking to
use, UAS methods to observe volcanoes, we invite submissions to this
session describing novel applications of UAS to topics related to volcanic
processes.

*Conveners:*
Brett Carr (Columbia University), Emma Liu (University of Cambridge),
Danielle Moyer (Drexel University), Felix von Aulock (University of
Liverpool)



Sincerely,

Brett Carr

Dear Colleagues,



The GMPV Division of EGU and VGP Section of AGU have created a new Joint
Session Series, which allows a series of consecutive sessions to address a
well-defined timely topic at the EGU General Assembly and AGU Fall Meeting.
Here is a brief FAQ to introduce the Series.



Why are we introducing the GMPV-VGP Joint Session Series? We believe there
are some topics which can really benefit from the attention of the full
breadth of AGU and EGU communities, and wish to encourage a bottom-up
process whereby such sessions can be proposed in a coordinated manner.



What are Joint GMPV-VGP Session Series? Coordinated by the VGP section of
AGU and GMPV Division of EGU, the GMPV-VGP session series is a sequence of
science sessions conducted consecutively at EGU General Assembly and AGU
Fall meetings, for 2 or more meetings. Thus in the current call we ask for
sessions that will be held in EGU2019, followed by AGU2019, and potentially
also EGU2020 and AGU2020.



What is the purpose? The purpose of the joint sessions is therefore to
focus the attention of the scientific community on an important, quickly
evolving subject, and thereby facilitate scientific progress. The series
may allow the full implications of a breakthrough in one sub-discipline to
be explored in other sub-disciplines, for example.



How can I propose a joint session? Identify a timely research area that
would benefit, and coordinate with colleagues to produce an outline of
conveners for each session, then complete the attached application form and
send to the GMPV division president gmpv@xxxxxx and VGP section president
manga@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx by 31 July.



How are proposals assessed? They will be examined in terms of their science
quality, likely impact, multidisciplinarity and organisation by the science
teams from both divisions.



Do all the same conveners have to be present at each meeting? No, but some
overlap is welcome, and a clear plan for who will be convening which
session and why is part of the proposal process.



Why should I do propose something? These will be high visible sessions
which will attract a lot of attention from the VGP/GMPV community. You will
be able to make quicker progress in a cutting-edge area of science.



When should I send the application form? *By the end of the deadline which
is 31 July.*



How will this work in the programme organisation? Selected Session Series
will be highlighted as such in the scientific programmes of the meetings,
and given a particular focus in communications from GMPV and VGP.





Best,



Mike Burton and Michael Manga



GMPV President and VGP President

Dear Colleagues:


Please consider submitting an abstract to the Fall AGU Meeting Special
Session *V010* entitled *“Bridging the gap between field- and
laboratory-based studies of effusive and explosive volcanism through
large-scale experiments”.  *See details below.



*Section/Focus Group:* Volcanology, Geochemistry and Petrology
*View Session Details: **https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm18/gateway.cgi
<https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm18/gateway.cgi>*

*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
<https://fallmeeting.agu.org/2018/abstract-submissions/>* 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.

************************************************************
***************************************************

Dear Colleagues,

We would like to draw your attention to the following 2018 Fall AGU session:

*PA072: The hazards of hazard communication: Importance, rewards and
challenges of science in the public sphere*
*https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm18/prelim.cgi/Session/49716*
<https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm18/prelim.cgi/Session/49716>

Accurate public communication of hazards science is critical; it can
deliver timely information to emergency planners, improve public confidence
in science, disseminate scientific findings and demonstrate the importance
of science to society. However, scientists are often reluctant to publicly
communicate science. Stories about misrepresentation, trolling, and
sensationalized reporting deter potential communicators from entering into
the public sphere.

This session aims to explore the concerns surrounding public communication
of hazards and work towards finding solutions to some of the more common
issues. The goal is to facilitate community-wide discussion about how we
can more accurately, effectively and responsibly communicate science to a
broad audience using various media and communications partnerships. We
welcome in particular submissions that explore research-based evidence and
personal case studies of both the challenges and rewards of communicating
science through social media, mass media, institutional communications
teams, and more, with a focus on lessons learned and best practices.

We look forward to your contributions to our session.


Best wishes from session conveners,

Wendy Bohon (IRIS) and Beth Bartel (UNAVCO)

Description:  Knowledge of the multiple interactions among ocean, land and
atmosphere is essential to understand many critical geohealth issues,
including the outbreaks of infectious diseases and health impacts of air-
and water-borne pollutants and pathogens . Encouraged in this session are
observational and modeling studies of key processes of the Earth system
(ocean, land, atmosphere) and how these processes interact to affect human
and ecosystem health. Topics of interest include 1) linkages and feedbacks
between land surface to atmospheric composition and human health; 2) field
measurements and satellite remote sensing of land surface processes,
aerosols, and other key Earth system components directly related to human
health; 3) land degradation, soil erosion and airborne and waterborne
pathogens and implications on human health; 4) regional and global public
health effects of changing climate and land surface; and 5) health effects
of human exposure to naturally-occurring earth materials.

Dear Colleagues,



The Local Organizing Committee is happy to announce that the website and
registration is open for the IAVCEI 5th Volcanic Geology Workshop – IAVCEI
5VGW that will be held at the Massey University in Palmerston North and
Ohakune, New Zealand between 25 February – 4 March 2019.



The IAVCEI 5th Volcanic Geology Workshop consists of an on-campus workshop
(one day) with presentations and discussions and field trip (six days) to
the Taupo Volcanic Zone active and young volcanic terrains.



Building on the learnings of previous workshops, the Fifth Volcanic Geology
Workshop will provide field-based experience for the participants to see
the volcanic facies architecture of active but long-lived intermediate
composite to silicic caldera volcanoes in an atypical arc setting along the
Taupo Volcanic Zone in New Zealand.



Participants will visit iconic locations from where basic concepts in
volcanology emerged such as ignimbrite depositions, volcaniclastic
sedimentary respond to major volcanic eruptions, ring plain concepts of
stratovolcanoes, volcano collapses and their landscape modifying effects,
small volume monogenetic volcanism associated with central volcanoes and
application of tephrastratigraphy and chronology in development of mapping
units.



The single day workshop will be arranged into 3 major themes:

1)  Volcanic Geology of Ancient [pre-Pliocene] Terrains

2) Volcanic Geology of Modern (post-Pliocene] and active settings and

3) Volcanic Geology and Geological Mapping



Each of these themes will be introduced by an invited 30 minutes plenary
talks [invitation to deliver these talks will be communicated directly with
the potential presenters]. Each of the themes can allow 12 presentations
that will be selected by the Scientific Advisory Board. The selected
presenters will have a 5 minutes, 2 slide Power Point option to introduce
their work to the audience that will be followed by round table discussions.



The 6 days long fieldtrip will take the participants to the Ruapehu
volcano, Tongariro Volcanic Complex, Taupo caldera and Taranaki volcano.



For more information and registration please visit the IAVCEI 5VGW website



www.massey.ac.nz/IAVCEI2019



Please note that registration is open ONLY for IAVCEI members and the
maximum number of registration is limited in 50, so please consider your
participation and complete your registration as soon as possible.
