Dear Colleagues,

Please consider submitting your work to our session “Volcanotectonic Processes and Landforms Across the Solar System” at IAVCEI 2023 under the theme: Magmatism and tectonism.

Description:
Volcanic activity is a hallmark of almost every large solid-surface body in the Solar System. Giant volcanoes dominate the surfaces of Venus, Mars, enormous calderas are abundant on Io, and large igneous provinces are major physiographic features of Mercury and the Moon. Each of these bodies boasts widespread evidence of effusive-explosive styles of volcanic eruptions, and the interplay of volcanic and tectonic processes. In the outer Solar System, numerous icy satellites and several dwarf planets display evidence indicative of cryovolcanic activity. These types of landforms and processes can be examined like never before thanks to a variety of new data returned by spacecraft from Mercury to Pluto. In this session, we solicit contributions exploring the myriad styles of volcanic eruptions, the architecture of plumbing systems, volcanic landforms and processes on Solar System bodies (planets, moons, or asteroids) using field observations, remotely sensed data, laboratory or numerical simulations, or some combination thereof. We especially welcome submissions of comparative analyses between volcanism on Earth and on other worlds, or between other planetary bodies.

The abstract submission deadline is 2 September 2022. We look forward to your contributions to our session.

With best regards,
Patrick McGovern, Paul Byrne, Pranabendu Moitra
