Advances courses in geodynamics	February-march 2010
In the framework of the educational activites of the PhD School in Earth System Sciences of Modena we announce: 1. A Short Course on Geodynamics to be held in Modena, Italy, February 22-26, 2010. Lectures on viscous flow related to subduction zones, mantle plumes, large-scale mantle flow, and the geodynamic evolution of the Mediterranean Basin. 2. A Short Course on Computational Geodynamics to be held in Modena, Italy, March 22-26, 2010. How to use MATLAB and parallel-MATLAB to model subduction zone and lithosphere-asthenosphere processes. Lectures on model building, techniques for solving viscous flow, temperature evolution, melting, and visco-elastic deformation. Two-dimensional numerical experiments to introduce codes and code-testing. The courses will be given by Prof. Jason Phipps Morgan (Cornell University, Ithaca, USA) (http://www.geo.cornell.edu/eas/PeoplePlaces/Faculty/JPM/JPM.html) The school will be an advanced study program aimed at graduate stude nts(doctoral level), post-doctoral fellows and young researchers. The number of students is limited to 40 for the short course on geodynamics and 20 for the short course on computational geodynamics. To apply, send an email to Francesca Remitti (francesca.remitti@unimore.it) that includes: 1. A statement of research interests. 2. A short curriculum vitae The application deadline is November 30, 2009. Participation fee is 50€ for each course. http://www.earthsystem-school.unimore.it/geodynamics/ Materiale scaricabile: clicca qui

SC 2- Dal mantello alle camere magmatiche	2009 09 7-8
l corso intende presentare i recenti sviluppi delle conoscenze petrologichesui processi di fusione ed arricchimento nel mantello, sulla genesi dei magminei vari ambienti geotettonici, la loro differenziazione durante la risalita e stazionamento nelle camere magmatiche, e sui meccanismi eruttivi che in definitiva condizionano il rischio vulcanico. Il corso intende inoltre offrire una rivisitazione delle principali categorie di eruzioni magmatiche esplosive (pliniane, vulcaniane, stromboliane) e di discutere il tema del rischio vulcanico e della gestione delle emergenze allaluce delle recenti crisi vulcaniche mondiali. Tutto questo tenendo conto delle metodologie analitiche piùavanzate dal LAM-ICP-MS-MC alle analisi micro-isotopichein-situed alle loro applicazioni ai temi sopra esposti. http://www.unife.it/dipartimento/scienze-terra/news/corso-breve-sc2-2013-dal-mantello-alle-camere-magmatiche/ Materiale scaricabile: clicca qui

Alpine Ophiolites and Modern Analogues, Parma, Italy	2009 09 30
An international workshop on multidisciplinary studies of continental rifting and formation/evolution of oceanic basins recorded by ophiolites and modern oceanic lithosphere. The meeting consists of three days of oral/poster presentations and two field excursion on the Ligurian ophiolites (Northern Apennines) and Lanzo Peridotite Massif (Western Alps). http://www.alpineophiolite2009.org/ Materiale scaricabile: clicca qui
