Session Title | Subduction Zone: Tectonics and Magmatism |
Main Convener | Prof. Ryuichi Shinjo (University of the Ryukyus, Japan) |
Co-convener(s) | Prof. Dapeng Zhao (Tohoku University, Japan) |
Session Description | Trench-arc-backarc basin system represents one of major features of our planet earth. How are they initiated, how do they operate unique magmatism and seismic activity, and how do they eventually evolve? Understanding these systems is therefore by necessity a multidisciplinary effort. This session covers wide range of 'subduction zone'-related topics including geophysical, geochemical and petrological observations, modeling, and experimental results. |
