From m.ballmer at ucl.ac.uk Tue Jul 14 20:07:39 2020 From: m.ballmer at ucl.ac.uk (Ballmer, Maxim) Date: Tue, 14 Jul 2020 10:07:39 +0000 Subject: [Geodynamics] AGU session on the lower mantle Message-ID: Dear all, Please consider submitting an abstract to our session: ?Advances in deciphering the structure, mineralogy and composition of the lower mantle? at the AGU fall meeting, December 7- 11, 2020. The session will focus on recent progress in lower mantle studies and invites submissions from all sub-fields across the Earth sciences. (https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/pwIZCnx1jniOwlKlF9UWUF?domain=agu.confex.com) The lower mantle accounts for over half of the Earth?s mass and plays an important role in the planet?s large-scale heat and material cycles. Seismic studies of the lower mantle revealed heterogeneities across a range of scales which have been linked to accretion processes, mantle convection, plate tectonics and mineral phase transitions. Open questions remain about the physical nature and origin of seismically observed structures such as Large Low Velocity Provinces and Ultra-Low Velocity Zones and whether such features could be remnants of early processes such as magma ocean crystallization, long-term accumulation of subducted basaltic material or pristine chondritic-type material. Lower mantle evolution is also linked to that of the surface through volatile cycling as well as to the evolution of the core. Contributions are encouraged from sub-disciplines across the Earth Sciences that can provide new insights into the lower mantle's structure, composition and the processes driving its long-term evolution. Conveners: Terry-Ann Suer (Harvard), Denis Andrault (University Blaise-Pascal), Maxim Ballmer (University College, London), and Jennifer Jenkins (Cambridge) Invited Presenters: Neala Creasy (Colorado School of Mines) and Wenzhong Wang (University in Hefei, China) The deadline for abstract submission is Wednesday, 29 July at 23:59 EDT.

These processes are not only multi-scale spatially but also act over strongly different timescales. Understanding the Earth's mantle across these scales is a problem typically outside the range of analytical solutions. The application of numerical methods to capture vastly different scales and the development of clever parameterisations to tackle this multi-scale problem are necessary. This session will explore the link between Earth's mantle processes operating on different spatial and/or temporal scales. We invite contributions from various disciplines including geodynamics, seismology, mineral physics, and that highlight computational advances in tackling dynamical problems that span scales in time and space.
