SUMMARY:37th General Assembly of the European Seismological Commission - Abstract submission deadline extended
LOCATION:Online
DESCRIPTION:The abstract submission deadline for the virtual 37th General Assembly of t
 he European Seismological Commission (https://www.erasmus.gr/microsites/119
 3), 19-24 September 2021, has been extended to May 15th.\nWe hope you may c
 onsider submitting your abstract to session S12: "Seismological and Structu
 ral Studies in Polar Regions and the Cryosphere". The session accepts both 
 oral and poster presentations on a wide range of topics to be found within 
 the appended description below.\nWe are pleased to announce the following i
 nvited talks: \n - Regional and local scale monitoring of glacier dynamics 
 and permafrost in Svalbard. By Dr. Andreas Köhler (NORSAR, Norway)\n - Seis
 mic structure of the Antarctic upper mantle imaged with adjoint tomography.
  By Dr. Andrew Lloyd (Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory, USA)\nLooking forwa
 rd to meeting you online during the Assembly!\nWith kind regards,\nMyrto Pi
 rli\n Nicolas Celli\n Peter Voss\n Fabian Walter\n----\nSession scope:\nThe
  Polar Regions attract increased scientific, social and economic attention 
 and hold special significance as regions strained the most by the consequen
 ces of climate change. Unanswered questions on the regions’ tectonic evolut
 ion, implications of their natural resources and the UN Law of the Sea Trea
 ty stimulate further interest in them. Among the seismological challenges i
 n the Polar Regions are the origin and properties of intraplate seismicity,
  the mechanisms of ultra-slow seafloor spreading, the structure and dynamic
 s of aseismic ridges and subglacial cratons and orogens, the role of glacia
 l rebound in seismicity triggering, seismogenic glacier sliding and iceberg
  production, and the exploration for oil and gas. As an imaging tool both i
 n depth and on the surface, apart from revealing the Earth’s structure, sei
 smology contributes to studies of paleoclimate and ice and permafrost struc
 ture. Seismology has also proven itself as an effective instrument to study
  ice dynamics and monitor glacier-related natural hazards, the rich cryo-se
 ismological wavefield providing unrivalled insights into iceberg detachment
 , crevassing, subglacial water flow and basal stick-slip phenomena.\nWe inv
 ite submissions on seismology and Earth structure in the Polar regions and 
 glaciated environments with temperate climates. All seismological topics ar
 e welcome, including monitoring and analysis of seismicity (tectonic and cr
 yogenic) and related hazards, near-surface processes, studies of recent lar
 ger seismic events, seismotectonics and seismic imaging of crustal and mant
 le structure. We welcome contributions on recent research results and their
  interpretation, and on passive and active experiments under the special co
 nditions of the polar environment and mountain glaciers.\n
