2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2 From: Chiara Montagna <chiara.montagna@xxxxxxx> Dear Colleagues, The IAVCEI commission on Volcanic and Igneous Plumbing Systems (VIPS) organizes a virtual seminar series focusing on different aspects and methodologies that aim at unraveling magma storage and transport processes in the broadest sense. Our next host is *Sam Poppe*, <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://sampoppevolcano.wixsite.com/sampoppe__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!IGQjUdOlC2aW3sNdKebJtEz_9n3L9DTdBy0DZAJMd8SLFxn7lEQlr1LPl9c4m-I$> from Space Research Center - Polish Academy of Science, on *December 3* at* 11am CET*. *How can we reconcile models with geology? Deformation modes induced by magma intrusion in planetary crust*An impressive range of analytical and numerical models of volcano deformation is available to volcano monitoring efforts. Whereas most geodetic models assume elastic host rock rheology, recent geological and geophysical observations have stressed the role â?? sometimes even dominance â?? of complex, non-elastic deformation during the evolution of propagating magma fronts. I will demonstrate how combinations of geological observations with laboratory experiments and inversion models help understanding the context of non-elastic deformation but also open a debate for our community: does local non-elastic deformation affect broad deformation signals at active volcanoes enough to care?
