Session GD1.2/AS4.61/BG5.4/CL1.01/GMPV1.6/TS1.6
"Early Earth: Dynamics, Geology, Chemistry and Life in the
Archean Earth"
Processes responsible for formation and development of the
early Earth (> 2500Ma) are not
well understood and strongly debated, reflecting in part the
poorly preserved, altered, and
incomplete nature of the geological record from this time.
In this session we encourage the presentation of new approaches
and models for the development of Earth's early crust and mantle
and their methods of interaction. We encourage contributions from
the study of the preserved rock archive as well as geodynamic
models of crustal and mantle dynamics so as to better understand
the genesis and evolution of continental crust and the
stabilization of cratons.
We invite abstracts from a large range of disciplines including
geodynamics, geology, geochemistry, and petrology but also studies
of early atmosphere, biosphere and early life relevant to this
period of Earth history.
