Hello Folks,

Justin Filberto  (jfiliberto@xxxxxxxxxxxx) and I have organized and are
currently co-editing a thematic issue in American Mineralogist in memory of
Jim Webster for 2020 - 2021.

Experimental and Petrologic Investigation of Halogens, Sulfur, and Other
Volatile Species in Igneous Systems: In Honor of Jim Webster

Jim Webster devoted his professional career, both in the lab and in the
field, to a broad study of halogens, sulfur, and other volatile species in
igneous environments, which included plutonic, subvolcanic, and volcanic
processes. As an experimental petrologist Jim contributed to our
understanding of volatile processes in igneous melts and what minerals from
these melts, such as apatite and micas, can tell us about these processes.
In the field Jim focused on understanding the role of volatiles in volcanic
systems and in plutonic systems, such as granites, in part through the
study of apatite mineral chemistry and melt inclusions and how this related
to the genesis and evolution of the original magmatic systems. In the case
of volcanic systems this also included studies of outgassing during
eruptions and subsurface volcanic processes.

For this special volume of American Mineralogist in honor of Jim, we invite
all researchers interested in the role of volatiles in igneous process -
geochemical, mineralogical, and petrological to contribute their studies.
This includes both field studies and lab based studies including
experimental petrology.  Papers on apatite- or mica-based research of any
sort are especially welcome.

Submission dates are any time from now up through the end of 2021 and may
be extended further depending on the interest expressed for this thematic
issue.

When submitting your article to American Mineralogist follow the
regular procedure and then choose from the Special Section in the menu - â??
Experimental and Petrologic Investigation of Halogens, Sulfur, and Other
Volatile Species in Igneous Systems in Honor of Jim Webster â??.  Your
article will then become part of the thematic collection.  Other than that
- submission procedure, peer review, etc. is the same as for any other
paper submitted to American Mineralogist.  More information can be found
here: http://www.minsocam.org/MSA/AmMin/special-collections.html .

Submissions will be accepted up through the end of 2021, which may
be extended depending on how many submissions we get.

If you should have any questions regarding the suitability of your
contribution for the thematic issue - please feel free to contact either
Justin or myself.

sincerely yours,

Daniel Harlov and Justin Filberto


P.S.  A session in honor of Jim Webster, which reflects the thematic issue,
titled â?? The Role of Halogens, Sulfur, H2O, and CO3 in Volcanic and
Plutonic Systems (A Session in Honor of Jim Webster) â?? is being convened at
the 2021 Goldschmidt Meeting in Lyon, France (
https://2021.goldschmidt.info/goldschmidt/2021/meetingapp.cgi/Session/2072).
Papers submitted to this session would be ideal as papers for the thematic
issue in American Mineralogist.  So please consider submitting papers to
both.
