Session SE59: Post-collision

tectonics?
Lead convener: M. Flower

MYRES stands
for "Meeting of Young Researchers in Earth
Sciences". The science theme of the meeting
is chosen by voting. Different meeting ideas
are submitted and members of the science community
then vote for the meeting they prefer.
We are proposing a meeting on a combined topic:
Magmatism of the Earth
and Planets |
We
propose to get a group of young Earth and planetary
scientists together, and this topic is different
from other upcoming meetings. It includes a career
development workshop, fieldwork and science sessions.
The goal is to provide an overview of this field
of research, promote discussion and provide young
scientists with the skills needed to become successful,
independent scientists.

meeting by July 15, by visiting this

Session description:
The origin of hotspots and large igneous processes
appears to be as controversial as ever. Points of
disagreement extend beyond the current plume debate
to questions of the petrologcal nature of the source
rocks (peridotite, eclogite, pyroxenite, and
their hybrids), the source of geochemical enrichment
(metasomatism, recycling of crust), and the "fixity"
of hotspots. This symposium will bring together geochemists,
petrologists and geophysicists to debate the issues.
