[Geodynamics] AGU 2021 Session: DI007 - Exploring multi-scale mantle dynamics with computational methods

[O'Farrell, Keely A.]

Dear colleagues,

We invite you to submit an abstract in our AGU 2021 Fall Meeting session focused on investigating multi-scale dynamics of the Earth's mantle with computational methods. The session will be held in a hybrid format with both in-person and virtual presentations. You can submit the abstract following the link to the session here<https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/58mICjZ1N7inPDW79IW-7v7?domain=nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com>. The deadline for abstract submission is August 4th, 2021.

Please find more details on the session below:

Invited presenters:
Anne Glerum (GFZ Potsdam)
Doyeon Kim (University of Maryland)

DI007 - Exploring multi-scale mantle dynamics with computational methods
The dynamics and evolution of Earth's mantle are governed by structures and processes interacting on a wide range of scales: long-wavelength mantle convection and large thermochemical structures are intimately linked with small-scale processes in the boundary layers, and understanding the effective properties of mantle rocks require insights on the mineral scale. 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. Applying numerical methods to capture vastly different scales and developing 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 spanning scales in time and space.
