EUG XI session O11 Diagenesis & Low-grade metamorphism
Dear members of the geo-metamorphism mailing list,

This is a call for abstracts for the EUG XI meeting (Strasbourg, 8-12 April, 2001), session O 11 "Diagenesis and Low-grade Metamorphism".

This symposium is dedicated to the memories of Professors Martin Frey
(Basel) and Bernhard Kübler  (Neuchatel), two petrologists well-known
for their work on diagenesis and low-grade metamorphism. Martin Frey
tragically lost his life in his beloved Alpine mountains and Bernhard
Kübler died having forcefully fought cancer.

The symposium will commemorate these two petrologists by bringing
together scientists working on various aspects of diagenesis and
low-grade metamorphism in sedimentary and volcanic rocks including the
oceanic crust. The symposium welcomes contributions from those
investigating low temperature alteration processes using various
approaches, such as the determination of the mineral stability fields
using thermodynamic databases, reaction progress of phyllosilicates, derivation of fluid evolution histories, hydrocarbon generation and migration, age determinations of low temperature events, structural analysis of such rocks, and the reconstruction of basin evolution histories.
Electronic abstract submission deadline (max 450 words) is
1st of December on http://eost.u-strasbg.fr/EUG7/EUG11.html

If you have questions concerning the session, please, contact the convenors
