5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5 From: "Troch, Juliana" <TrochJ@xxxxxx> Dear colleagues, The IAVCEI Scientific Assembly is being held in Rotorua, New Zealand, from Jan 30 - Feb 3, 2023. The abstract deadline is approaching fast (Sep 2nd), so we would like to invite you to submit an abstract to our session focused on silicic magmatism: *Grand challenges in understanding large silicic magmatic systems* Igneous processes on Earth produce large amounts of highly evolved, low-density magmas that form stable continents, feed ore deposits, and lead to supereruptions. Better understanding processes that lead to the generation and accumulation of such large silicic magma bodies remains one of the grand challenges of the earth sciences, and requires a multidisciplinary approach that integrates field work, geochemistry, geochronology, experimental petrology, geophysics, and numerical modelling on both volcanic and plutonic lithologies. With this session, we aim to gather researchers from all those different branches of our science, and provide a forum to discuss present ideas and plan the future in our pursuit to decipher processes that are controlling large silicic magmatic systems. Topics include but are not restricted to: - Physical properties of multi-phase magmas - The configuration of magma storage and plumbing systems in space and time - The plutonic-volcanic connection - Cycle of activity at calderas, and recurrence intervals between eruptions - The influence on magma chambers and conduit processes on eruptive styles - Deformation mechanisms in magmas and host rocks during emplacement and eruption - Thermal evolution of magma reservoirs and the interaction with crustal lithologies We would like to solicit in particular interdisciplinary studies investigating the chemical and physical evolution of magmatic systems by integrating of experimental- and/or modelling results with field- and/or analytical data.
