*Invited speakers*


Dr. Jack Elston, President, Black Swift Technologies

Dr. Chad Hanson, AmeriFlux Technical Team, Oregon State University


Originating mostly from military applications, unmanned aircraft systems
(UAS) use in geoscience research is continuing to expand, given their
flexibility and usability. Even now advanced sensors are being miniaturized
and developed specifically for use on a UAS. High precision observations
can be used to track volcanic gases, map forest fires, measure river-ice
breakup, monitor critical infrastructure, and measure vegetation health.
The aim of this session is to bring together geosciences to present on the
newest UAS, payloads, and research. We invite contributions including those
in formal and applied science, system and sensor development and UAS
integration into manned airspace as well as in developing new missions and
ongoing campaigns to collect geoscience data. The session will bring
together leading experts in all aspects of UAS planning, regulations,
operations, data collection, processing, and analysis to initiate
discussions and share experiences for fostering cross-disciplinary research
and knowledge-transfer across the sciences.

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

Dear all,

We are delighted to announce that the the open access book *Observing the
Volcano World: Volcanic Crisis Communication* by Springer has just been
published, both online and as print.


*The content and ebook are available online with open access
on: https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-319-44097-2
<https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-319-44097-2> where you can
also order a hardback copy. We would like to say a huge thank you to the
100+ authors over seven continents who have contributed and assisted in
bringing this book to publication, and our sponsors who made the book open
access (see below). For those in the UK on Thursday 20th September, you are
welcome to attend a book launch event at UCL in London,
please email c.fearnley@xxxxxxxxx <c.fearnley@xxxxxxxxx> for more details.*
*As part of the Advances in Volcanology book series, this unique collection
brings together a wealth of undocumented knowledge to provide a platform
for understanding how volcano crises are managed in practice, and helps to
establish effective best practices.  Consequently the book brings together
over 100 authors from all over the globe who work with volcanoes,
ranging from observatory volcanologists, disaster practitioners and
government officials to NGO-based and government practitioners to address
three key aspects of volcanic crises.  *

The information and insights presented are essential to tapping established
knowledge, moving towards more robust volcanic crises management, and
understanding how the volcanic world is perceived from a range of
standpoints and contexts around the globe. Divided into three parts, the
book explores:

   - *Adapting Warnings for Volcanic Hazards* reviews the unique nature of
   volcanic hazards, which makes them a particularly challenging threat to
   forecast and manage, due in part to their varying spatial and temporal
   characteristics.
   - *Observing Volcanic Crises* presents lessons learned on how to best
   manage volcanic events based on a number of crises that have shaped our
   understanding of volcanic hazards and crises management.
   - *Communicating into the Future* discusses the diverse and wide-ranging
   aspects of communication involved in crises, which merge old practices such
   as oral traditions and art and dance, and new technologies such as social
   media and satellite technologies to accommodate an increasingly challenging
   and globalised world.

Subject: VOLCANO: Multiscale evolution of volcanic plumes (AGU session A073): 10 days left to submit and invited speakers announcement

 From: Thomas Aubry <thom.aubry@xxxxxxxxx>
***************************************************

Dear all,

Please consider submitting an abstract
<https://fallmeeting.agu.org/2018/abstract-submissions/> to the following
session at the 2018 AGU Fall meeting (10-14 December 2018, Washington DC).
Note that there is only *10 days left before the submission deadline!
( Wednesday, 1 August 23:59 EDT)*

*Multiscale Evolution of Volcanic Plumes: from Injection to Large-Scale
Transport and Impacts
<https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm18/prelim.cgi/Session/48643>*

Conveners: Valentina Aquila (American University), Thomas Aubry (Univ. Of
British Columbia), Verity Flower (NASA GSFC), Laura Kerber (NASA JPL)

Volcanic eruption plumes display a variety of environmental impacts,
ranging from deterioration of local air quality up to effects on the
global climate. To understand these ramifications, eruption source
parameters, plume development, and transport of volcanic aerosols and gases
must be ascertained. Incorporation of observed and modeled plume
characteristics into general circulation models (GCM) allow the long-term
effects of volcanic eruptions to be inferred. In this session we welcome
studies of the composition, distribution, transport, and microphysical
evolution of volcanic plumes, as well as their impacts on the environment
and climate, through remote sensing, plume models, GCMs, and Earth
System Models. This session provides a venue to present observational and
model studies of volcanic eruptions on a range of spatial and temporal
scales and encompassing both terrestrial volcanism and plumes observed on
other planets.


We are delighted to announce our two invited speakers and tentative titles
for their talks:

Elisa Carboni (University of Oxford, UK) : "Measuring volcanic plume from
space, using satellite thermal infrared spectrometer."

Matteo Cerminara (INGV Pisa, Italy): "Volcanic gas and ash distribution in
umbrella clouds: a 3D plume model linking eruption source parameters with
atmospheric emission profiles”


Please contact us if you have any question.


On behalf of the conveners,

Thomas

Subject: VOLCANO: 3 Phd positions at LMU exploring the role of geomaterials and magmatic activity on the emergence of life

 From: Bettina Scheu <b.scheu@xxxxxx>
***************************************************

*Three PhD Positions in*

*Exploring the role of geomaterials and magmatic activity on t**he
Emergence of Life*
*within the SFB/TRR *Emergence of Life with cross-disciplinary experiments

Do you want to find out how life could have originated on early Earth? With
this SFB (focused study group with 16 projects), we bring together both
young and experienced researchers to form a cross-disciplinary network for
experimentally Origins of Life research in Munich. We will integrate the
initial boundary conditions of early Earth from biophysics, geoscience,
astronomy and chemistry for innovative lab experiments.



All projects within this research initiative are interdisciplinary and
involve PhD students from the two core discipline represented by their PIs.
We have* three open PhD* positions (4-years funded) for the geoscientific
component of:

*Project 1:  Volcanic matrices to host autonomous DNA replication*

*This project is a collaboration between Bettina Scheu (Geoscience, LMU
Munich) and Dieter Braun (Molecular biophysics, LMU Munich).*



All evidence points to the fact that the first steps in the emergence of
life occurred on rocks and minerals. The physicochemical implications of
this have not been experimentally explored. The highly complex environment
of a variety of fresh, partially glassy volcanic rocks and ashes, as well
as their hydrothermally altered counterparts such as clays will lead to a
rich interplay between activating surface chemistry, volume
compartmentalization and thermally driven surface flows. On the other hand,
it has been shown that thermal gradients across pores filled with water is
capable to accumulate and replicate oligonucleotides by a combination of
thermal convection, molecule thermophoresis and protein-based replication.
Can these lab experiments be translated to real conditions in porous rocks
or sediments?

Volcanic rocks will be resynthesized and used to build microfluidic
chambers which are optically accessible. Under an applied heat flow,
thermophoresis and convection will be used to replicate and accumulate DNA
with the help of polymerase proteins.



*Project 2:  Profiling of meteoritic organic matter and the role of
metalorganic compounds*

*This project is a collaboration between Donald B Dingwell (Geoscience, LMU
Munich) and Philippe Schmitt-Kopplin (BioGeoChemistry, Helmholtz Center,
Munich).*



A high molecular diversity of extraterrestrial organic matter is found in
meteorites. As celestial bodies like asteroids or meteoroids undergo high
energy gradients within astrophysical environments chemical preservation of
life-relevant organic molecules must be operative under a wide range of
conditions. Recently thermostable organic compounds involving a novel
chemical class of organo-magnesium compounds (CHOMg) were observed in
meteorites.

In this project, CHOMg profiling will be expanded within terrestrial and
extraterrestrial magnesium silicate-rich environments (top-down approach).
In addition, we want to perform high energy experiments (high temperature
and pressure scenarios) in the lab to study systematically the formation
and stability of these CHOMg molecules (bottom-up approach). With this
combination we will better understand the role and influence of
organomagnesium chemistry and the stability of such complexes in organic
chemical evolution.



*Project 3:  Prebiotic synthesis in volcanic discharges: exposing porous
ash to volcanic gas atmospheres*

*This project is a collaboration between Bettina Scheu (Geoscience, LMU
Munich) and Wolfgang Eisenreich (Chemistry, TU Munich).*



During the last decade, the roles of volcanic ashes, and porous pyroclasts
or volcanic minerals as compartment provider and/or catalysts in the
formation of organic building blocks for life were controversially
discussed. This project aims at quantifying the role of geomaterials in
some settings and scenarios considered to contribute to the origin of life,
e.g. by creating and accumulating organic compounds, in particular the
discharge-induced interaction of ash and atmosphere, and the input and
interaction of such ash in hydrothermal settings.

A main goal of the project is to reveal the formation of biomolecules and
their precursors during volcanic eruptions involving electric discharges
and controlled atmospheres. Thereby, the role of geological or in situ
formed volcanic ashes and several gases of volcanic origin will be
determined by the multi-disciplinary approach. The potential catalytic
function of geological and in situ formed volcanic ashes will also be
elucidated under prebiotic hydrothermal scenarios.



For an overview over the entire SFB/TRR Emergence of life, please check our
preliminary website  www.emergence-of-life.de.

We seek 3 outstanding and highly motivated candidates, eager to work in a
highly interdisciplinary research group. Experience in experimental
laboratory work as well as in optical, petrological and geochemical
analysis (e.g. SEM, EMPA, xCT, XRF, XRD, Raman) will be beneficial for all
projects. Candidates should have a MSc in a relevant area (petrology,
volcanology, geophysics, Earth sciences).

All 3 PhD students will be hosted at the Department of Earth and
Environmental Sciences at LMU, Germany. Within the SFB/TRR excellent
interdisciplinary training, and networking activities are provided.

Please apply with a CV, transcript of academic record, publications,
motivation letter and 2 references to Bettina Scheu <b.scheu@xxxxxx>
<b.scheu@xxxxxx> and Donald B. Dingwell < <dingwell@xxxxxx>dingwell@xxxxxx>
<dingwell@xxxxxx>. Please indicate the project you apply to clearly If you
apply for more than one project clearly indicate your first and second
priority.

For questions concerning the entire project, please inquire with
dieter.braun@xxxxxx.

*Evaluation of the applications will start 07.08.2018*, until the positions
are filled. The projects can start immediately and are funded for 4-years.



Kind regards,
Betty Scheu

Subject: VOLCANO: Session on the biogeochemistry of caves

 From: Jen Blank <Jennifer.G.Blank@xxxxxxxx>
***************************************************

Dear Colleagues,

We'd like to bring your attention to the following 2018 Fall AGU Session.
We hope some of you will contribute!

*Session Title:* B011. Biogeochemistry of Caves (oral)

*Section/Focus Group:* Biogeosciences
*View Session Details: *https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm18/gateway.cgi
<https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm18/gateway.cgi%C2%A0>
Session Description:
Recent studies have revealed striking microbial species diversity among
caves with similar ages and provenance. Likewise, broad variation in
secondary carbonate and silica mineralogy has been noted and described.
Many questions remain concerning the origin of features that appear to form
a continuum between microbes and minerals. Geochemistry and isotope ratios
can help constrain an abiotic or biotic origin of these features.
Investigations of biomarkers such as lipids are helping to discriminate
community activity and composition. Cave water and surface water chemistry
can help predict the energy budget available to support life in these dark
environments and estimate the source of nutrients and water supplied
through fractures or conduits in cave walls and ceilings. We invite
contributions of studies of secondary mineralogy, hydrogeology, and
microbiology of caves and mines. We are particularly interested in
assessments of community diversity, biomarkers, and energy available to
support life in the subsurface.

 From: Gioachino Roberti <gioachino.roberti@xxxxxxxxx>
***************************************************

Dear colleagues,

Glaciovolcanism is back at AGU with the session:

*V038: ** The Emerging Multidisciplinary Science of Fire and Ice:
Understanding the causes, timing and consequences of planetary
glaciovolcanism*  <https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm18/prelim.cgi/Session/51233>
at this year's AGU Fall Meeting (10-14 December, 2018), which for the first
time takes place in Washington D.C.

Please consider submitting your abstract to this session .
The abstract submission
<https://fallmeeting.agu.org/2018/abstract-submissions/> is open and *deadline
is **Wednesday, 1 August 23:59 EDT*.

*Session Description:*
During the 2010 Eyjafjallajokull eruption in Iceland, the importance of
interactions between volcanoes and glaciers came fully into public view.
Quaternary glaciovolcanoes are found all over the Earth, including
Antarctica, South America, North America, Africa, Indonesia and Russia, as
well as on other planets (e.g., Mars), and they have impacted many
different parts of the cryosphere (e.g., permafrost to ice sheets).
Scientists from many disciplines study coupled volcano-cryosphere systems,
partly due to their potentially hazardous responses to global warming.
Thus, the timing is ripe for an integrative session on the processes and
implications of volcano-ice interactions.

We invite contributions at all spatial/temporal scales from field,
geochemical, and geophysical studies as well as experimental and numerical
simulations of specific glaciovolcanic phenomena. We also welcome reviews
such as impacts of magmatism on ice sheets and climate, hazards/risks from
changes to glacierized volcanoes, and advancements in our knowledge of
glaciovolcanism on Mars.


Best regards,

Cheers,

Gio

*Conveners:*

Andrew Binley – University of Lancaster

Mark Everett – Texas A&M University

Chuck Connor – University of South Florida

*Session Description:*

Volcanic environments present interesting geophysical challenges. The
complex terrain and inherently 3D subsurface require advanced near-surface
geophysical data acquisition and modeling, for example, to account for high
surface electrical resistivities or excessive seismic scattering. Due to
complexities at various spatial scales, geophysical method diversity and
multi-physics approaches are key for successful characterization. Volcanic
environments potentially offer geothermal resources. Acquiring a plurality
of geophysical data types can help assess the geothermal potential.
Volcanic geology can impact hydrology tremendously (e.g. dikes, chemical
alteration, fractures); improving hydrological models requires
hydrogeophysical data. Depending on the setting, volcanoes may be covered
by glaciers or experience permafrost conditions, adding complexity to their
geophysical characterization. We invite contributions covering all aspects
of near-surface geophysics, including theory, laboratory experiments,
modeling, inversion, field experiments, equipment, as well as hydrological
and geothermal applications. We would like the contributions to demonstrate
a connection, or discussion of the applicability, to volcanic environments.

 From: David Zakharov <davidz@xxxxxxxxxxx>
***************************************************

Dear all,


Please consider submitting your abstract to our session at the upcoming *AGU
2018** Fall Meeting in Washington DC*.


*V040: Triple isotopes of oxygen and sulfur in terrestrial systems*

https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm18/prelim.cgi/Session/45677


Recent developments in high precision isotope analysis allow the resolution
of systematic mass dependent variations in Δ17O, Δ33S and Δ36S of
terrestrial materials. This caused a rapid growth of publications and
emergence of labs with capabilities to produce high-quality triple isotope
measurements providing novel insights into geological processes. We invite
authors that work on theoretical and practical aspects of triple oxygen and
multiple sulfur isotope geochemistry to contribute their abstracts to the
session. The session is aimed to highlight research in the fields of
atmospheric and surface geochemistry, early Earth processes, paleoclimate,
mass spectrometry, water-rock interaction and other fields where triple and
multiple isotope proxies proved to be a powerful tool.
