[Sees_users] SEES Outreach and Inclusion officer
by Andrew J. Campbell 08 May '24

08 May '24

Dear all, I’m pleased to introduce Emily Padston as the new Outreach & Inclusion Officer and Associate Director for SEES. Emily was previously the Executive Director for two other NSF-funded programs at the University of Chicago, Data Science for Energy and Environmental Research and the Center for Robust Decision-making on Climate and Energy Policy. She has a Ph.D. in Applied Physics from Harvard University and a B.S. in Materials Science and Engineering from Cornell University. Emily lives in the South Loop of Chicago with her husband, 1-year-old son, and two cats. She enjoys reading a variety of fiction books, trying tasting menus, and exploring the Midwest after spending most of her time on the East Coast. As SEES Outreach & Inclusion Officer, Emily will lead the coordination of all outreach, education, and inclusion activities within the SEES organization and is the point of contact for collaborations in this area. Best wishes, Andy ---------------------------------- Andrew Campbell SEES Director Dept. of the Geophysical Sciences University of Chicago Chicago, IL 60637 (773) 834-1085 acampbel(a)uchicago.edu https://urldefense.us/v3/__http://geosci.uchicago.edu/*campbell__;fg!!G_uCf… -----------------------------------

[Sees_users] GSA Connects Session: Synchrotron X-ray and Neutron Applications in Earth and Environmental Science
by Joanne Stubbs 06 May '24

06 May '24

Dear Colleagues, We are writing to highlight GSA session T113: Synchrotron X-ray and Neutron Applications in Earth and Environmental Science. The GSA Connects 2024 conference is being held in Anaheim, California from September 22-25, 2024. The abstract submission portal is now open at https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://community.geosociety.org/gsa2024/home__;… and abstracts are due by June 18, 2024. We encourage a broad range of submissions sharing results, perspectives, and advances in the use of synchrotron X-rays and neutrons to probe questions in Earth and environmental science. Confirmed invited speakers are: Bryan Chakoumakous, Oak Ridge National Laboratory Brandy Toner, University of Minnesota The session is described in more detail below. We hope to see you in Anaheim! Si Athena Chen, Oak Ridge National Laboratory Cara Santelli, University of Minnesota Joanne Stubbs, The University of Chicago Synchrotron X-ray and Neutron Applications in Earth and Environmental Science X-ray and neutron techniques complement each other in exploring the intrinsic properties of minerals and materials. The high-penetrating power of synchrotron X-rays and neutrons, combined with recent advancements in instrumentation and computational approaches, have revolutionized many scientific disciplines, including mineralogy, (bio)geochemistry, petrology, soil science, sedimentology, oceanography, cosmochemistry, and ore deposits, etc. Synchrotron facilities provide a diverse array of X-ray instruments, each with unique capabilities such as high temporal and spatial resolution, flexible sample environments, low detection limits, coherence, and a multitude of 2/3D imaging options. The advancement in synchrotron X-ray technology has propelled Earth science research in various aspects, ranging from low to high-temperature/pressure crystallography, in-operando studies of mineral-water reaction and nanoparticle formation, and 3D imaging of trace elements, among other applications. Neutron scattering offers additional numerous advantages and is instrumental in investigating various mineral properties. These include the study of lattice dynamics of minerals and molecular systems, hydroxyl bonding environments in minerals, in-situ studies of structure under extreme conditions, diffusive processes in solids, mimicking reactions at surfaces and in interiors of planetary bodies, examining the nature of porous materials, imaging with elemental and isotopic contrast, as well as magnetic phase transitions. This session welcomes contributions from researchers that have used synchrotron X-ray and neutron scattering in their studies. We aim to explore a broad spectrum of their applications in advancing geosciences and related fields. We also welcome submissions detailing current or planned synchrotron/neutron beamline capabilities that contribute to advancements in geoscience research. This session is co-sponsored by: Mineralogical Society of America (MSA) Mineralogy, Geochemistry, Petrology & Volcanology Division (MGPV) Energy Geology Division (EGD) Sedimentary Geology Division (SGD) Soils and Soil Processes Division (SSPD) [cid:image001.png@01DA9FCE.33DF6A10]

by Hopp, Bethany Ann Chidester 19 Apr '24

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.
