Dear Colleagues,
We invite you to submit an abstract to our session on quantifying mantle
properties and processes via integration of laboratory, field, and
geophysical datasets, taking place at the AGU 2022 Fall Meeting in Chicago
and online from December 12–16, 2022. The deadline for submission is *August
3rd*.

*DI007 - Bridging the observational gap: Integrating laboratory, field, and
geophysical datasets to quantify mantle properties and processes*
Recent improvements in the quality and quantity of geophysical datasets and
advances in imaging techniques have provided unprecedented resolution of
Earth's mantle wave speed, seismic anisotropy, attenuation, resistivity,
and density structure. Still, ambiguity exists in interpretation of
parameters such as temperature, grain size, deformation mechanism,
viscosity, composition, and melt/volatile content, which influence and/or
record geologic processes. Recent laboratory experiments and observations
probe the grain-scale properties of Earth materials and quantify their
influence on geophysical observables, providing the framework to
meaningfully interpret geophysical observations in terms of the underlying
physics of mantle materials. Extrapolation of laboratory-derived
constraints to Earth conditions is associated with uncertainties, and
comparison of predictions against geophysical observables is necessary to
evaluate model success.
We welcome contributions from all solid-earth fields such as geodesy,
geodynamics, mineral physics, seismology, petrology, geochemistry, and
geology that integrate or compare laboratory and field-based constraints
with geophysical observations to quantify mantle properties and processes.
Invited speakers for the session include Kosuke Yabe (ERI University of
Tokyo) and Hannah Mark (WHOI).
Best regards,
William Shinevar (CU Boulder)
