Dear all,
we apologize again for multiple posting
(the previous message was incorrectly formatted)
This is to inform you that abstract and registration deadline for the workshop
“Alpine Ophiolites and Modern Analogues” (September 30-October 2, Parma, Italy)
has been extended until July 10th.
Two optional field excursions on Ligurian ophiolites (September 28-29, 2009)
and Lanzo Peridotite Massif (October 3-4, 2009) are also planned.
The oral presentation schedule will include the following key-note lectures:
• Mathilde Cannat (Institut de Physique du Globe de Paris, France):
“Hydrothermal circulation and magmatism in exhumed peridotites at slow
spreading ridges”
• Henry J.B. Dick (Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, USA): “The
Diversity of Slow and Ultraslow Spread Ocean Crust “
• Benoit Ildefonse (Géosciences, Université Montpellier, France): “The
Atlantis Massif and IODP Hole U1309D : an illustration of the
interconnection between oceanic core complexes and magmatic activity ?”
• Gianreto Manatschal (Université Louis Pasteur, Strasbourg, France):
“Mantle exhumation at magma-poor rifted margins : the examples of the
Iberia-Newfoundland and the Alpine Tethys margins”
• Othmar Müntener (University of Lausanne, Switzerland): “Refertilization
and depletion processes in mantle peridotites and their role for rifted
margins and (ultra-) slow spreading crust”
• Giorgio Ranalli (Carleton University, Ottawa, Canada):” Processes of
lithosphere softening and the continental extension/oceanic spreading
transition”
• Nobumichi Shimizu (Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, USA):
“Geodynamics of Alpine Peridotite Massifs”
• Brian Tucholke (Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, USA): “Crustal
extension and mantle exhumation in weakly magmatic rifts and mid-ocean ridges”
