1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1 From: Simone Costa <simone.costa@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Dear all, We are glad to present you the session Session S05: Behind the scenes: advanced methodologies to unravel the architecture, dynamics and timescales of volcanic plumbing systems, which will be held at the Rittmann Conference (Italian Association of Volcanology) in Catania, Italy from September 29 to October 1, 2022 The session is open to contributions, with the deadline for abstract submission on June 11th Information can be found on the conference website ( https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.conferenzarittmann.it__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!YEQe7LeavyLyk0a2GXK0apUDXMWhC2l8H7Lph15cbtRFVOpMtt2b-428pe_-pU1BghbJy_Drexw7UG_7$ <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.conferenzarittmann.it__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!aFlUsoiW4veb3ShAnnrGt-nsoHZ0rPzKvC-xn1ogwCk-tDV830Wt5JgdDVEluOy5WzT6mDuthkyLM5jtrpDUghgWtw$> ) A brief session description is reported below. We hope to see you in Catania The Conveners: Simone Costa* (Università di Pisa), Maurizio Petrelli (Università degli Studi di Perugia), Marisa Giuffrida (Università di Catania), Gabriele Lanzafame (Università di Catania), Andrea Cannata (Università di Catania) corresponding: simone.costa@xxxxxxxxxxxx Session details Mechanisms prompting volcanic eruptions take place behind the scenes, inside volcanic plumbing systems. The physical conditions of magmas and plumbing system dynamics modulate the mineral phase stability, crystallization and volatile degassing, which in turn affect the magma rheology and mixing/assimilation processes. The advances in petrographic (2D and 3D) and geochemical analyses, coupled with thermodynamic modelling, diffusion chronometry and geophysical monitoring (e.g., seismology, ground deformation and gravity measurements) unveil volcanic plumbing systems with high spatial and temporal resolution. This session aims at collecting innovative studies to develop more reliable conceptual models and modeling tools to understand the dynamics and timescales of volcanic plumbing systems, from magma storages at deep crustal levels to eruptions. In detail, we welcome contributions that investigate and possibly unravel open questions such as: How to identify dynamics and precursors for open- and closed-systems behavior in plumbing systems? What are the timescales of pre and syn-eruptive processes? Should we focus on the "last mile", or look at deeper processes? How to reconstruct the architecture of plumbing systems? We welcome contributions that integrate state-of-the-art petrochemical and geophysical investigations, experimental petrology, volcanology, numerical and thermodynamic modellings and data processing techniques based on statistical methods and Machine Learning algorithms. 1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1 ------------------------------
