From the seafloor to the deep mantle, fluids influence most subduction zone processes including seismicity, rheology and geochemical cycling. However, our understanding of the chemical and physical consequences of fluid transport and release along the entire plate interface is limited. Integrating observations across disciplines and scales is imperative for advancing knowledge of subduction zone processes. This session aims to gather geoscientists who explore the behavior and physico-chemical effects of fluids in subduction zones and link a) micro- to macro-scale processes and b) the exhumed rock record to geophysical observations and geodynamic modeling. We especially welcome studies that highlight feedbacks between metamorphism, metasomatism and deformation.

We invite abstracts from a broad range of disciplines, including petrology and geochemistry, geochronology, structural geology, experimental rock mechanics, geodynamics, and seismology. Interdisciplinary contributions are especially encouraged.
