1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1 From: "Memeti, Valbone" <vmemeti@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Please consider submitting an abstract to the virtual Cordilleran Section meeting of GSA (Reno), May 12â??14. *T14. Igneous Minerals as Capsules of Length and Time-Scale Information for Magma Processes in Magma Plumbing Systems* *Endorsed by GSA Mineralogy, Geochemistry, Petrology, and Volcanology Division.* Vali Memeti, and Calvin Barnes *Description:* This session brings together scientists working on mineral-scale petrography, geochemistry, geochronology, and other approaches to examine types of magma processes and their length and time scales from the magma source region to the volcanic edifice to better understand the nature of magma plumbing systems and the processes defining them. The meeting will be virtual. However, we would like you to please note that: -the platform will be different from the GSA national meeting and will be focused on the ability of attendees to interact. This will be the case for oral presentations AND posters. -registration fees are low (e.g., $100 for professionals/ $25 for students if GSA members). -virtual field trips are FREE if you register for the meeting. -student career lunches and workshops will still be offered. -ours is one of many sessions focused on magmatic processes. There should be plenty of good science to keep us engaged. -even if virtual, the meeting platform provides an excellent way for students to present their research and get feedback. The abstract deadline is February 9th.
