Dear Colleague,

We would like to encourage you to contribute with a presentation to the
session on

*Volcanic Processes: Tectonics, Deformation, Geodesy, Unrest *
(GMPV5.1/G3.10/NH2.5/TS10.2)

at the EGU Meeting, 7 - 12 April 2019, to be held in Vienna, Austria
(*https://www.egu2019.eu
<https://www.egu2019.eu/>*).

This session embraces studies in Structural Geology, Tectonics, Geodesy,
Monitoring, Unrest, Modelling, Volcanology and Petrology.

A description of the session is provided below.

Deadline for receipt of abstracts is 10 January 2019.


We look forward to meet you in Vienna.

Thank you.

Best regards,

Valerio and the co-conveners




SESSION INFORMATION

*VOLCANIC PROCESSES: TECTONICS, DEFORMATION, GEODESY, UNREST.*

The session deals with the documentation and modelling of the tectonic,
deformation and geodetic features of any type of volcanic area, on Earth
and in the Solar System. The focus is on advancing our understanding on any
type of deformation of active and non-active volcanoes, on the associated
behaviours, and the implications for hazards. We welcome contributions
based on results from fieldwork, remote-sensing studies, geodetic and
geophysical measurements, analytical, analogue and numerical simulations,
and laboratory studies of volcanic rocks.


Studies may be focused at the regional scale, investigating the tectonic
setting responsible for and controlling volcanic activity, both along
divergent and convergent plate boundaries, as well in intraplate settings.
At a more local scale, all types of surface deformation in volcanic areas
are of interest, such as elastic inflation and deflation, or anelastic
processes, including caldera and flank collapses. Deeper, sub-volcanic
deformation studies, concerning the emplacement of intrusions, as sills,
dikes and laccoliths, are most welcome.


We also particularly welcome geophysical data aimed at understanding
magmatic processes during volcano unrest. These include geodetic studies
obtained mainly through GPS and InSAR, as well as at their modelling to
imagine sources.


The session includes, but is not restricted to, the following topics:

   - volcanism and regional tectonics;
   - formation of magma chambers, laccoliths, and other intrusions;
   - dyke and sill propagation, emplacement, and arrest;
   - earthquakes and eruptions;
   - caldera collapse, resurgence, and unrest;
   - flank collapse;
   - volcano deformation monitoring;
   - volcano deformation and hazard mitigation;
   - volcano unrest and related monitoring;
   - mechanical properties of rocks in volcanic areas


*CONVENERS:*

Valerio Acocella, Agust Gudmundsson, Sigurjon Jonsson, Michael Heap,
Virginie Pinel.
