Do you think a paper on the Iranian arc might be appropriate for this EGU
session/special issue?

Dear colleagues
We are planning to put together a Tectonophysics special issue on the
theme of "Hot Orogens". This is in association with a session at the
2008 EGU meeting in Vienna devoted to this topic (see description
below) for which we encourage you to submit a presentation.
We would like to have a list of possible publications for the
Tectonophysics editors by the end of January 2008. Please consider
submitting a paper to this special issue and if you are interested
please send a title and a short summary to [log in to unmask]
mip.fr, or [log in to unmask]
Sincerely,
Patrice Rey, Dominique Chardon, Christian Teyssier, Donna Whitney

Session TS12 - Structure, deformation, and flow of hot orogens
This session welcomes contributions from all fields of geosciences
that contribute to understanding the tectonothermal evolution of hot
orogens and/or weak lithosphere. Key topics include, but are not
restricted to, the relations among structure, deformation,
topography, flow, magmatism and metamorphism of transpressional,
transtensional and mature collisional orogens through geological
time. Emphasis will be put on multi-scale studies of magmatic arc
systems, transpressive/transtensive crustal-scale shear zones,
Precambrian orogens and mobile belts, Cordilleran orogens, high
plateaus, and/or modern convergent orogenic belts in their late-
orogenic stages. We encourage comparisons of these deformation
systems and analysis at various structural levels. The session aims
at gathering structural geologists, tectonicists, geophysicists,
petrologists and modelers interested in 3D crustal / lithospheric
deformation processes in relation to crustal / lithospheric mass
balance.
All necessary information can be found under http://
meetings.copernicus.org/egu2008.
The deadline for the receipt of abstracts is 14 January 2008.
