Dear Colleagues,

We would like to invite you to submit an abstract to the EGU session
SSP3.1, titled: Volcano-sedimentary processes in broader geological
environments.

https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU22/session/43501__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!I7Mp5Icg-e-ZraGp7I-PFgZSidOAl8ybXGST7H1f5megmDiIzvvVyHQW9cdEI3Y$

Volcanoes are inherently complex and dynamic geological systems,
acting as the source of diverse sediment types and as a control on
varied sediment transport processes within surrounding environments,
both during and after their life. This can manifest as an accumulation
of thick primary volcaniclastic sequences from pyroclastic (e.g.
pyroclastic density currents, tephra falls), laharic and flank
instability processes, secondary volcaniclastic sequences from the
reworking/redeposition (or both) of primary deposits and their
interaction with non-volcanic sedimentary processes, or deposits from
the weathering of lava flows. The diversity of processes that may be
involved in the generation of volcaniclastic sequences often make it
difficult to describe and interpret them. As the comprehension of the
generation, transportation and accumulation mechanisms of
volcaniclastic sequences is of extreme importance for natural hazard
and economic perspectives, to reduce uncertainties and move forward in
the identification of volcano-sedimentary processes and potential
effects, modern and ancient volcaniclastic sequences must be studied
and interpreted hand in hand. Thus, the proposed session aims to bring
together studies that explore the volcaniclastic record of modern and
ancient environments. Contributions are welcomed in areas including,
but not limited to, the identification of volcanic features in ancient
sedimentary records, multidisciplinary (e.g., stratigraphic,
petrographic, geophysical) approaches to the study of modern subaerial
and submarine volcaniclastic sequences as analogue sites, and examples
of the modification of sedimentary systems across syn- and
inter-eruptive periods.

Looking forward to seeing many of you at EGU22,
Best regards

The conveners:
Andrea Di Capua (CNR-IGAG)
Ulrich Kueppers (Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München)
Elodie Lebas (IPGP)
Rebecca Williams (University of Hull)
