Dear colleagues,

we would like to draw your attention to the session 3e "Integrating
petrology, geochronology and geochemistry of subduction zones",
organized under the umbrella of the upcoming Goldschmidt 2024
conference, to be held in Chicago from August 18 to August 23. The
description is given below.The abstract submission deadline is March 29.

Subduction zones are important locations for shaping the Earth's
physical and chemical evolution. Processes of subduction zone
metamorphism and fluid-mediated mass transfer between subducted
lithosphere and overlying mantle wedge result in substantial changes of
the properties of the subducting slab, including rheology, mineralogy
and chemistry. Understanding the processes and changes in the slab due
to subduction metamorphism impacts our understanding of geochemical
cycling at subduction zones, the generation of arc volcanoes, the
formation of continental crust, and the concentration of elements of
economic importance. In this session we invite contributions focusing on
studies of natural samples, as well as both experimental and theoretical
approaches. We invite studies that use a range of techniques to address
these questions, including petrology, thermobarometry, geochronology,
novel stable isotope systems, trace elements, and thermodynamic modelling.

We will be grateful for receiving topical abstracts which may bring our
understanding of complex processes occurring during subduction and
beyond to yet another level.

Best regards,

Tomas Magna
