EGU 2013 - Call for Papers
Rudy Swennen, Anna Trave, Antonio Benedicto, Jacques Pironon and
myself are inviting contributions for session TS2.5/GD2.8
"Fluid-rock-tectonics interactions in basins and orogens" at the 2013
EGU General assembly (Vienna, 07 - 12 Apr 2013).
Fluid flow is a first-order feature of the geodynamic evolution of
basins and orogens. Fluids interact with rocks from the earliest stages
of sedimentation until the stages these rocks are deformed and/or
metamorphized and then exhumed. Fluids are major contributors to
mineralization and ore deposits, hence of resources, and the
interactions between fluid flows and tectonic structures, such as fault
zones, strongly influence the mechanical behavior of the crust at
different space and time scales (e.g., variations of fluid
(over)pressure, seismogenic behavior).
This session aims at making the point on our knowledge of
fluid-rock-tectonics interactions in basins and orogens
and at evaluating to what extent fluids influence, and in
turn are influenced by, rock composition and physical/rheological
properties and structural evolution (folds, fault zones) at different
levels of the continental crust.
We will focus on regional/case studies (e.g., fluid-rock interactions
and fluid signatures in compressional, strike-slip or extensional settings)
as well as on more technical
aspects (recent advances in methods and techniques for fluid
characterization and fluid pathways reconstruction, fluid-rock
interaction modeling : geochemical transport-reactive; fluid-flow,
mechanics, thermal and diagenesis modeling, dating of fluid
circulation).
We welcome contributions dealing with either hydrocarbon
fluids (petroleum and gas systems; basin modeling) or hydrothermal
and/or basinal fluids (mineralizing fluid systems). We also welcome
works on the role and behavior of fracture systems and fault zones
during fluid circulation in the crust down to the brittle-ductile
transition (e.g., transient vs long-term fluid-rock interactions in
fractures and faults, rock alteration related to fluid flow through
faults, mineralizations and ore bodies associated with faults).
Abstract submission deadline is 09 Jan 2013. In case you would like to
apply for support, please submit no later than 30 Nov 2012.

Please forward this call for papers to anyone who might be interesting in
participating in such a session
Looking forward to seeing you in Vienna,
Sincerely
Olivier Lacombe
