British Geophysical Association, New Advances in Geophysics Meeting 2010
Magma Emplacement and Storage in the Earth's Crust
11-12 February 2010
Geological Society, Burlington House, Piccadilly, London
Magma plays a critical role in governing the mechanics of seafloor
spreading, continental rifting, and in the formation of continental crust
at subduction zones. Yet, until recently, few direct observations had been
made of magma emplacement and storage. This meeting will bring together
scientists from a variety of disciplines within Earth Sciences to discuss
new inter-disciplinary observations and models of magma emplacement and
storage, and the implications for volcanism.
Keynote Speakers to Include: Claude Jaupart (Institut de Physique du
Globe, Paris), Will Wilcock (University of Washington), Matt Pritchard
(Cornell University) and Charlie Langmuir (Harvard University).
Other invited speakers: Zhong Lu (USGS), John MacLennan (University of
Cambridge), Freysteinn Sigmundsson (University of Iceland), Catherine
Annen (University of Bristol), Kathy Whaler (University of Edinburgh), and
James Hammond (University of Bristol).
Organisers: Tim Wright (University of Leeds), John Blundy (University of
Bristol), Bob White (University of Cambridge), Joe Cann (University of
Leeds)
Abstract and Early Bird Registration Deadline: 21 December 2009
