Dear colleagues,



We would like to draw your attention to our AGU session: â??*T034.
Multidisciplinary investigations of the Aleutian-Alaska Subduction Zone*
<https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm19/prelim.cgi/Session/72464>â??. Recent
initiatives including EarthScope and GeoPRISMS have generated a wealth of
new data in the region, providing a unique opportunity for integrated
studies of this dynamic subduction system. We aim to highlight and
facilitate such studies by bringing together contributions from geology,
geophysics, geochemistry, volcanology, rock physics, geochronology,
tectonics, and geodynamics.

Please consider contributing to our session.

*Invited Speakers:*

Geoffrey Abers (Cornell University), Jessica Larsen (University of Alaska,
Fairbanks)



*Submission Deadline*: *31 July, 2019 at 23:59 EDT.*

Please submit your abstracts to:

https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm19/prelim.cgi/Session/72464



We look forward to seeing you in San Francisco!



Sincerely,

Xiaotao Yang (Harvard University)

Tamara N. Jeppson (Texas A&M University)

Julie Elliott (Purdue University)

Daniel J. Rasmussen (Lamont -Doherty Earth Observatory, Columbia University)

*Full Session Description:*

The Aleutian-Alaska subduction zone (AASZ) is marked by lateral variations
in the subducting and overriding plates, subduction obliquity, magma
composition, and eruption frequency. It is home to 54 historically active
volcanoes, a volcanic gap associated with flat slab subduction, and
abundant subduction-related seismicity. The AASZ is an ideal place to
address a variety of subduction-related questions, most effectively through
cross-disciplinary collaborations. This AGU session aims to facilitate
sharing of new data and results across disciplines to help elucidate AASZ
processes including but not limited to characteristics of the slab;
seismogenesis and fault slip behavior; upper plate deformation processes;
magma generation, fluid/volatile transport, and eruption processes; and
linkages between processes. We invite contributions investigating the AASZ
involving geology, geophysics, geochemistry, volcanology, rock physics,
geochronology, tectonics, and geodynamics, with a particular interest in
studies integrating results from multiple disciplines and/or across scales.
