Session B69: Nanoscale Insights into Aqueous and High Temperature Geochemistry

CZEN Colleagues,

The attached is an open invitation for oral-poster research presentations for two Biogeosciences sessions at December's AGU Meeting in San Francisco, CA, USA.
The sessions are titled:
1) Global Soil Change: New Frontiers for the BiogeoSciences
2) Global Soil Change: Mechanisms of Carbon Stabilization and Response

Last year's Global Soil Change sessions at AGU were very well attended for both posters and oral presentations.

Two notes:

27 August is AGU's $20 MEMBERSHIP deadline for presenters, See:
https://www.associationsciences.org/agu/
After you become a member, AGU sends you a membership # (for your default UserID) and your last name with no caps becomes your default password.

Dear all,

A reminder to please consider submitting an AGU abstract to session EP25 on the Critical Zone. We are honored to have Ron Amundson (UC Berkeley), Craig Rasmussen (U Arizona), Jean Dixon (GFZ Potsdam) and Lixin Jin (Penn State) as invited presenters in our session.

The session description follows:

EP25: Advances in Critical Zone Research: Interactions Among Water, Rock and Life at Earth's Surface. Sponsor: Earth and Planetary Surface Processes

Call for papers for AGU Fall meeting special session:

H44: Thermodynamics of Soil, Hydrological, and Ecological Processes Sponsor

Sponsors:
Hydrology
Biogeosciences
Earth and Planetary Surface Processes
Nonlinear Geophysics

Dear all,

please consider the following session when submitting an abstract to the next AGU Fall Meeting (abstract submission deadline: 02 September).

EP07: Quantifying Present and Ancient Rates of Earth Surface Processes

Landscape diversity is the result of Earth surface’s response to external forcings such as climate variability, tectonic and/or human activity. To understand this response, quantifying the rates of geomorphic processes is critical. This session explores methods that provide such quantifications, including (but not limited to) cosmogenic and uranium-series isotopes, luminescence dating, thermochronometry, isotope geochemistry or geochemical mass balances. The focus is brought on techniques quantifying present-day surface processes but also on methods that allow us to re-construct their past variations, such as paleo-erosion rates or stable isotope proxies.

Invited speakers: Darryl Granger (Purdue University), Francois Chabaux (Universite de Strasbourg), Katharine Huntington (University of Washington) and Frederic Herman (ETH Zurich).

Conveners: Anthony Dosseto (University of Wollongong), Arjun Heimsath (Arizona State University) and Ed Rhodes (UCLA).

CALL FOR ABSTRACTS
AGU Fall Meeting 2010, 13th - 17th Dec, San Francisco, CA, USA

Abstract submission is now open and the deadline for submission is September 2nd, 23:59 Eastern Daylight time.

Dear Colleagues,

Our apologies for cross posting. We are organizing the following session at the 2010 AGU Fall meeting, focused on the Impact of Vegetation and Soil Weathering Processes on the Hydrosphere, and would welcome contributions from interested researchers across the Earth Sciences.

A more detailed description of the session is given below. We are very excited to confirm the following invited speakers: Oliver Chadwick, Susan Brantley, Thomas Bullen and Kate Maher.

Please feel free to circulate this e-mail to everyone who might be interested in this session.

We invite you to submit abstracts to AGU Hydrology / Near-Surface
Geophysics session H84 at the 2010 Fall AGU meeting in San Francisco
(Dec 13-17). This year abstract submittals are open beginning July 21
and ending August 27.

Dear all,
The time has come to start thinking about AGU 2010. Open season for abstract submissions starts July 21.

Please consider the following session as you pick and choose among the record number of sessions this year!

EP25: Advances in Critical Zone Research: Interactions Among Water, Rock and Life at Earth's Surface. Sponsor: Earth and Planetary Surface Processes

Conveners: Clifford Riebe (UWyo) and Heather Buss (USGS)

Dear Colleagues,

Please consider submitting an abstract to a session on biological weathering at a range of temporal and spatial scales at the upcoming Goldschmidt conference in June. The abstract submission deadline is 21 February and the conference itself will take place 13-18 June in Knoxville, TN, USA.
