Dear friends and colleagues,

We invite abstract submissions for two sessions on Submarine Volcanism at this year’s AGU meeting - we aim to bring together the interdisciplinary community analyzing the structures and processes of underwater volcanic systems. Please note that we have two related sessions to allow maximal flexibility and participation by both US and international researchers working on related topics:

V020 : Submarine Volcanism (hybrid format, with both virtual and in-person in New Orleans portions)
V021 : Submarine Volcanism: Advances in Observations, Methods, and Models (virtual-only session).

Session details are below :

In this session (V020 and V021), we aim to bring together the interdisciplinary community analyzing the structures and processes of underwater volcanic systems. Submarine volcanism occurs in a wide variety of geodynamic setting and dominates the Earth’s magmatic budget but the presence of the oceans makes it challenging to observe eruptive and intrusive events and sample their products. For this reason, progress in this field is dependent on fostering community-wide efforts that integrate traditional approaches with innovative advances in observational, laboratory and modeling techniques. For this session, we seek contributions that span the full range of approaches to studying submarine volcanism to provide new insights into geological, geochemical, and geophysical processes and the resulting volcanic structures. Newly developed techniques from observational, experimental, and theoretical studies that produce high-resolution data of active volcanic systems and enhance our understanding of submarine volcanic structures and their dynamics are particularly welcomed.

Invited speakers:

Session V020 :
Hélène Le Mével (Carnegie Institution for Science)

Session V021 :
Adam Soule (Ocean Exploration Cooperative Institute, University of Rhode Island)
Yoshihiko Tamura (JAMSTEC)

The abstract portal is open now, with a submission deadline of August 4th. We look forward to your contributions in making these a set of informative and lively sessions!

Sincerely,
Tushar Mittal, Kristen E. Fauria, Yen Joe Tan, Lise Retailleau, William Wilcock
