Subduction zone magmatism

Seminar info and schedule

For the autumn of 2017 we'll discuss subduction zone magmatism: Melting processes in the subduction zones and relations to the tectonic setting.

Seminars will take place at 14:00-15:30 in room D501 of the Exactum. You may also want to see more information about the general format of the seminar.

A tentative schedule of readings is below.
