2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2 From: Ioannis Baziotis <ibaziotis@xxxxxxxxx> Apologize for multi postings Dear Colleagues, The training school will be held at the Agricultural University of Athens, in Athens Greece, from 5th - 9th August 2024, sponsored by the European Geosciences Union. The school will consist of four days of lectures and practical exercises followed by a short field expedition to the geological and historical sites in the Lavrion area. So, this is a *HUGE *chance for the participants to combine learning (participation to the workshop) with vacations in Greece. The training school, aimed at early career scientists, is on thermodynamic modeling of natural silicate liquids and their equilibria with minerals and fluids, combining two quite different but complementary intellectual approaches â?? macroscopic and atomistic. The macroscopic approach will be based on the MELTS family of thermodynamic minimization algorithms, whereas the atomistic approach will use the UMD (Universal Molecular Dynamics) package for post-processing of ab initio molecular dynamics. Introductory sessions will include talks describing the models and software, with short demonstrations. Practical sessions will aim to give participants first-hand experience using a variety of software interfaces. Examples from the morning sessions will generally be expanded on in the afternoons, and some special calculations will highlight features that are only available (or only convenient) on particular platforms.

Furthermore, please address any queries to the workshop organizer, Ioannis Baziotis (ibaziotis@xxxxxx; ibaziotis@xxxxxxxxx). *Registration deadline: 12th May, 2024 (late registration is possible but is not recommended)* *Final Enrollment estimates: 13th May, 2024* *Fees - Room and board* There is no registration fee, however, the participants will have to manage hotel accommodation for five nights - arrival on Sunday 4th Aug 2024, and checking out on Friday 9th Aug 2024 (optional: if participate on the short tour, will need to check out on Saturday 10th Aug 2024). Participants will need to pay for the accommodation. Once final enrollment estimates are available, more details will be announced about the maximum amount to be reimbursed and the procedure for reimbursement. *Transportation* Attendees should make their own arrangements for travel to and from Athens. This will generally involve flying into Athens airport, transfer to the city center (~1 hour via "Metro" or "Proastiakos" train). Details for the transportation schedule can be found here ( https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.athensairporttaxi.com/metro/timetable-to-airport__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!eMlbSLatQXflyOgu4exAqiqlT35SuUq-wVY2K7W7_bnnRZ748tKf2EzjzJyqNZoap2jzXRk3tATSaVTT$ <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.athensairporttaxi.com/metro/timetable-to-airport__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!bN06Tsm43rZnKg7CxOHF3QaTAB0n22Mh1gyFIkFWMGzrlnN2Bo8yr-xVHkEdQbMA2HYUazrpllyZXFomHk88EQ$> ). *Contingencies* Agenda may be scaled back or cancelled in case of small enrollment (<20 participants). *Subsistence* Refreshments will be provided during the training school for all participants. Meals are not covered but there are plenty of inexpensive places to eat around workshop`s venue, so you should allow approximately 30 â?¬ per day for subsistence. *Computing* Each training school attendee will need to bring a laptop. *Field-trip* One-day post-conference optional tour of the Lavrion area is planned for the last day of the training school. 2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2 ============================================================== Volcano Listserv is a collaborative venture among Arizona State University (ASU), Portland State University (PSU), the Global Volcanism Program (GVP) of the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of Natural History, and the International Association for Volcanology and Chemistry of the Earth's Interior (IAVCEI).
