Dear Everyone,

The Commission on Volcanogenic Sediments invites you to its 4th
webinar, titled: "Fan-Delta progradation following the 2008 Chaiten
Volcano Eruption" by Javier Valdivia of the University of Auckland.

Abstract
Significant changes to the coastline have occurred since 2008,
following the sudden eruption of Chaitén Volcano in northern
Patagonia. The eruption, along with subsequent rainfall, triggered an
unprecedented aggradation process in the nearby coastal area,
affecting the depositional environment and leading to considerable
geomorphological and shoreline alterations. The geomorphic response of
the Chaitén River at its outlet initiated the unusual and rapid
formation of a new fan-delta sequence within the former delta complex
in the proximal area of Chaitén Bay. Consequently, the delta shoreline
experienced progradation, accumulating on top of a modern aggrading
alluvial fan system. This presentation discusses the findings from 20
years of shoreline changes in this volcanic-coastal area, including
historical shoreline evolution, the relocation of post-eruption
sediments, and the rates of erosion and aggravation.

The webinar will be held on the 30th of November at 9 NZDT.

See you on the web!
Ciao!
