Dear Colleagues,
We invite you to submit an abstract to our AGU25 session, V009. “Early Earth Origin, Composition, and Evolution” in the Volcanology, Geochemistry, and Petrology section.
Here’s the link to our session: https://agu.confex.com/agu/agu25/prelim.cgi/Session/251978
Please consider submitting an abstract by the upcoming July 30th deadline.
Session Description:
The early evolution of Earth set the stage for all subsequent planetary processes, yet it remains challenging to reconstruct. This session explores the origin, composition, and evolution of early Earth (Hadean and Paleoarchean), focusing on the critical processes that shaped our planet during its formative periods. We welcome contributions on a broad range of related topics, including proto-Earth accretion, the giant impact, magma ocean evolution, volatile delivery and loss, core formation, mantle differentiation, crust formation, proto-atmosphere and oceans, and early tectonics. Submissions employing diverse methods, such as geochemical or geophysical observations, experimental petrology, mineral physics, numerical modeling, and ab initio simulations, are all encouraged. This session aims to foster interdisciplinary dialogue to advance understanding of Earth's first billion years and provide broader insights into the evolution of terrestrial planets across the solar system and beyond.
