Nice - brief and to the point.

This work necessarily requires integrating disparate types of analysis, including major, minor, and trace element geochemistry, isotope geochemistry, geochronology and thermochronology, microstructure and textures, and tectonics. In this session, we hope to bring together experts in these different disciplines to improve insights into the consequences and implications of thermal histories for metamorphic and tectonic processes.
