Forwarded on behalf of Sumit Chakraborty:
Dear all,
This is to remind you that the deadline for the submission of Abstracts to the IMA meeting is rapidly approaching (30th of March). We draw your attention again to the session on geothermometry and geospeedometry convened by Paddy O?Brien, Leonid Perchuk and myself. New advances in observation, theory and experiments have substantially improved our abilities to determine the P-T-t conditions at which rocks form. At the same time, potential problems with some established approaches have become apparent. This session should provide a forum for the discussion of these new developments in an area that lies at the core of metamorphic petrology.
We already have a set of committed speakers that promise to make the session exciting ? these include: M.J. Holdaway, J. Ganguly, D.R.M. Pattison, G.R.T. Jenkin and R. Dohmen. Several others have expressed interest ? we urge you to submit an abstract, be present and help make the session more attractive. I look forward to seeing as many of you as possible at Edinburgh.
