19 Apr '24

Dear All, The AGU Study of Earth’s Deep Interior (SEDI) Section is pleased to continue our mentorship program for graduate students and postdoctoral scholars who are interested in learning how to propose/convene/chair a session at the 2024 AGU Fall Meeting. Research Topics: seismology, mineral physics, dynamics, deep Earth processes If you are interested in joining the program as a mentee, please fill out this form by April 26: https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://forms.gle/5Pghans29M6A8i6h7__;!!G_uCfscf… We do our best to match mentees with mentors (session conveners) as the applications come in. Mentee-mentor match can occur prior or after the session submission deadline (April 26) depending on availability. We have a good track record of matching mentees to mentors, but a placement is not guaranteed. In-person attendance at the 2024 AGU Fall Meeting is not required for participation in the program.

[Sees_users] Goldschmidt Session 11f: A geochemical perspective toward environmental solutions
by Sarick Matzen 20 Mar '24

20 Mar '24

Dear Colleagues, With the Goldschmidt 2024 abstract submission <https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://conf.goldschmidt.info/goldschmidt/2024/c… > deadline quickly approaching on *March 29th* please consider submitting an abstract to our session: “*11f A Geochemical Perspective Toward Environmental Solutions*”. We are excited to welcome Tyler Sowers (US EPA) as our keynote speaker, along with Samantha Ying (UC Riverside), Robert Root (University of Arizona), and Siva Bandaru (UC Berkeley). We are eager to share our passion for this area of research, especially work with synchrotron-based methods, as we bring together an energetic and motivated community interested in using our collective geochemical knowledge to design use-inspired solutions to current environmental contamination issues. We would be delighted to have you join us! Please contact us with any questions, -Brandy, Sarick, and Case *11f - A Geochemical Perspective Toward Environmental Solutions* *Theme 11*: Environmental Geochemistry and Human Health *Keynote Speaker*: Tyler Sowers, US EPA *Description* Fundamental geochemical knowledge is often at the center of optimal design and implementation of soil and water remediation strategies. For example, in toxic metal(loid) clean-up via soil amendments, phytoremediation, or chemical injections to stimulate in-situ bioremediation of surface and groundwaters, molecular-scale understanding of underlying geochemical drivers has proven essential in successful remediation of a variety of contaminants across ecosystems. Recent advances in synchrotron-based X-ray characterization techniques and the growing use of genomic data have made it possible to identify complex molecular-scale pathways of contaminant geochemical cycling and ensuing bioavailability in the field. This multidisciplinary session aims to showcase environmental remediation projects that have benefited from geochemical approaches and understanding, with a particular emphasis on remediation of inorganic pollutants (e.g., Pb, Cd, Hg, N, P, U, As). We specifically encourage presentations that integrate molecular-scale data with macroscopic measurements to directly investigate the fate of metal(loid) and/or nutrient-derived contaminants at small or large-scale field sites. Laboratory investigations of polluted water or soils derived from contaminated field sites are also welcomed. We look forward to an inspiring session that includes presentations from early-career to senior scientists with diverse expertise to delve into key geochemical processes underpinning environmental remediation. *Conveners* Brandy Stewart SLAC/University of Minnesota Case van Genuchten Department of Geochemistry, Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland Sarick L Matzen University of Minnesota - Twin Cities -- Sarick Matzen, Ph.D. Postdoctoral research fellow Toner Lab Department of Soil, Water & Climate University of Minnesota - Twin Cities tonerlab.cfans.umn.edu/ https://urldefense.us/v3/__http://www.sarickmatzen.com__;!!G_uCfscf7eWS!YTq…

[Sees_users] A FEWS DAYS LEFT: 2024 Goldschmidt - Session Announcement
by Stella Chariton 18 Mar '24

18 Mar '24

Dear colleagues, there are less than two weeks left to submit your abstracts at the Goldschmidt Conference (August 18-23, Chicago, USA). Please consider submitting an abstract to the exciting session # 2b that we are organizing this year: 2b - Deep planetary interiors: new experimental and analytical approaches (https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://conf.goldschmidt.info/goldschmidt/2024/g… ) Experimental studies and theoretical simulations of material properties at extreme conditions are one of the few but prevailing ways that geoscientists use to understand and model the processes taking place in the most complex parts of the deep Earth and other planetary interiors. Yet more discoveries await in sight of recent technological advances in experimental designs and computing efficiency, sample preparation and synthesis methods, analytical tools as well as AI assisted data collection and processing protocols with supporting software. The science front is driven by the challenges that the high-pressure community faces in exploring the mineral physics and crystal chemistry of geomaterials at elevated pressure, temperature and stress conditions. In particular, the enhanced spatial and energy resolution of X-ray and optical techniques at large facilities and advanced laboratories encourage experiments at the ultimate instrumental limits. The resulted superior data quality derived grand access to an infinite number of mineral properties, and in combination with computational approaches, allow the full assessment of countless plausible scenarios that help describe the micro- and macroscopic processes that govern the deep planetary interiors. This session welcomes all contributions that highlight cutting-edge achievements in static and dynamic experimental methods as well as novel analytical approaches that address a variety of physical and chemical properties of minerals, and enhance our understanding of the evolution, structure and dynamics of the Earth’s interior and that of other planetary bodies. Confirmed Speakers: Thomas S. Duffy ( Princeton University , USA) Yongjae Lee (Yonsei University, Korea) Zuzana Konopkova (European XFEL , Germany) Bin Chen (University of Hawaii at Manoa , USA) Conveners: Stella Chariton (The University of Chicago, GSECARS, Chicago, USA) Vitali B. Prakapenka (The University of Chicago, GSECARS, Chicago, USA) Guillaume Morard (Université Grenoble Alpes-CNRS-IRD-IFSTTAR-ISTerre, France) Haozhe Liu (HPSTAR, Beijing, China) Further details can be found on the conference website: https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://goldschmidt.info/2017/abstracts__;!!G_uC… The deadline for abstracts submissions is 29 March 2024. Best wishes, Stella, Vitali, Guillaume, Haozhe
