Conference: Workshop to catalyze understanding of mantle magma supply at subduction zones & beyond

这笔赠款将支持一次有重点的多学科讲习班，以增进对火山系统地幔岩浆供应的了解。为期3天的研讨会将汇集约50名岩石学家、地震学家、火山学家、野外地球物理学家和地球动力学家，目的是促进跨学科的努力，探索地幔熔融过程如何影响跨地壳岩浆系统和地表喷发。为早期职业研究人员举办的为期半天的研讨会前计划旨在加强对下一代科学家的培训和职业发展。地幔岩浆供应是建立岩浆系统的起点，也是引发多次火山喷发的岩浆补充的关键控制因素。然而，熔体和挥发分从地幔到地壳的供应速率仍然是制约岩浆系统的最具挑战性的参数之一。该研讨会旨在促进综合地球物理、气体地球化学、地质学和地球动力学模型方面的最新科学进展，这些进展提供了量化地幔岩浆供应的新方法。深入了解地幔供应对于4D俯冲带倡议(SZ4D)等努力至关重要，SZ4D是地球科学领域的一项大规模努力，目的是探索俯冲带灾害背后的过程。讲习班的主要成果将包括对地幔岩浆供应进行量化和建模的新的跨学科科学合作，以及在岩浆可成像性范围内部署仪器和确定优先次序的前瞻性建议。更广泛的影响包括提高对岩浆供应的理解，超越传统的学科视角；以及研讨会前和同步研讨会活动，专注于早期职业研究人员的参与、培训和职业发展。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

This grant will support a focused multidisciplinary workshop to advance understanding of the supply of mantle-derived magma to volcanic systems. The 3-day workshop will bring together ~50 petrologists, seismologists, volcanologists, field geophysicists, and geodynamicists, with the goal of catalyzing cross-disciplinary efforts to explore how mantle melting processes impact transcrustal magmatic systems and surface eruptions. A pre-workshop, half-day program for early career researchers aims to enhance training and career development for the next generation of scientists. Mantle magma supply is the starting point for building magmatic systems and is a key control on the magma recharge that initiates many volcanic eruptions. Yet, the supply rate of melt and volatiles from the mantle to the crust remains one of the most challenging parameters to constrain in magmatic systems. This workshop aims to galvanize synthesis of recent scientific advances in geophysics, gas geochemistry, geology, and geodynamic modeling that provide new methods to quantify mantle magma supply. Intensive work to understand mantle supply is critical to efforts such as the Subduction Zones in 4D initiative (SZ4D), a large-scale community effort in Earth sciences to probe the processes that underlie subduction zone hazards. Key outcomes of the workshop will include new interdisciplinary scientific collaborations to quantify and model mantle magma supply and forward-looking recommendations for instrument deployment and prioritization in the context of magma imageability. Broader impacts include advancing understanding of magma supply beyond traditional disciplinary perspectives; and pre- and syn-workshop activities focused on early career researcher engagement, training, and career development.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
