*IAVCEI/IACS VIIC Seminar: Tuya Talks by Alastair Hodgetts and Ben Edwards*



14th September, 2021 | 6a PDT | 9a EDT | 2p BST | 10p JST | 3a HST



Alastair Hodgetts | University of Birmingham | The Thórólfsfell tuya, South
Iceland â?? A new type of basaltic glaciovolcano



This talk will examine the first description and interpretation of
Thórólfsfell, a basaltic tuya on the southern flank of Tindfjallajökull
central volcano, S. Iceland. This asymmetrical, effusion-dominated
glaciovolcano is constructed of an unusual set of lithofacies, unlike other
tuyas described elsewhere, and displays no evidence for substantial and
sustained meltwater accumulation. The atypical eruptive and
glacio-hydrological conditions responsible will be explored and comparisons
to other effusion-dominated tuyas (in Iceland and elsewhere) will allow us
to question whether effusion-dominated tuyas are perhaps more diverse and
varied than currently thought? A criterion for identifying other
Thórólfsfell-type tuyas will be outlined and compared and contrasted to the
â??classicâ?? tuya model.



Ben Edwards | Dickinson College | Trouble with tuyas? Some thoughts on
scholarship and definitions for the â??newâ?? science of glaciovolcanism



Although scientists in the early 1900â??s first recognized that some volcanic
deposits in Iceland and British Columbia likely formed by volcano-ice
interactions, definitions and classifications for these curious deposits
have followed more slowly. For example, the now-standard term
â??glaciovolcanismâ?? was only first used in a publication in 2002. We will
briefly discuss the history of a few of these terms and classifications
with a special focus on better understanding the origins of the word
â??tuyaâ??, and whether or not it should be used as a general synonym for
â??subglacial volcanoâ??.



You are invited to a Zoom meeting.
