Submarine Volcanism: Advances in Observations, Methods, and Models
Submarine Volcanism: Advances in Observations, Methods, and Models
Session ID#: 160769
Session Description:
In this session, we aim to bring together the interdisciplinary community that analyses the deposits 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 facies. 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 systems and their dynamics are particularly welcomed.
