Conference Topics

I am please to list the invited speakers for the LASI6 meeting (alphabetical order):

  • Alan Bischoff (University of Canterbury, New Zealand). Theme: seismic imaging of volcano plumbing systems in sedimentary basins
  • Janine Kavanagh (University of Liverpool, UK). Theme: laboratory modelling of sill and dyke emplacement
  • Gerardo Páez (CONICET, La Plata, Argentina). Theme: exploring volcanic plumbing systems in mine excavations
  • Nora Rubinstein (University of Buenos Aires, Argentina). Theme: volcanic plumbing systems and ore deposits
  • Freysteinn Sigmundsson (University of Reykjavik, Iceland). Theme: active volcanic plumbing systems in Iceland

We are inviting contributions related to subvolcanic systems, including:

  • Emplacement processes of dykes, sills, laccoliths, plutons
  • Volcanic plumbing systems in active volcanic areas
  • Field observations, geophysics, laboratory, numerical and theoretical modelling
  • Magma-sediment interactions: contact aureoles, magma contamination, phreatomagmatic activity and hydrothermal venting, and climate implications
  • Economic geology of subvolcanic systems: hydrocarbons, shale gas, water and ore deposits
  • The plumbing systems of mud volcanoes and their analogies to igneous plumbing systems
