Download iCalRiMG Short Course: High-Temperature Gas Solid Reactions in Earth and Planetary Processes
Location: Boston, MA, USA (map)
Gas mixtures play a crucial role in distributing elements between different parts of Earth and planet-forming systems over a range of settings and temperatures. Despite the fundamental role of gases in geochemical cycles, the study of gas-solid interactions at high temperature is an emerging field in earth sciences. Currently, this area of research is spread between volcanology, planetary science, economic geology, environmental science, chemical engineering, chemistry, and metallurgy. The aim of this short course is to share the different approaches in this rapidly developing area. We will cover experimental work; modelling approaches; atom-scale reaction mechanisms; thermochemical and kinetic investigations; observations from active volcanic systems; and evidence for these reactions in the solar system and beyond.
Early registration: 1 June 2018

Location: Houston, TX, USA (map)
CCTP-3 will promote cross-disciplinary conversation on climate processes at work on terrestrial planets both within our solar system and in extrasolar systems. For the purpose of this conference, terrestrial climate is a broad term, intended to include the climates of Earth, Mars, and Venus as well as the climates of Titan and Pluto. CCTP-3 also covers exoplanets similar to Earth, Mars, Venus, Titan, or Pluto.
