Mantle Dynamics and Deep Earth Material Cycles

Convective material flow in Earth’s mantle drives plate tectonic processes and generates a material exchange between deep mantle reservoirs and Earth’s surface and atmosphere over geologic time. This workshop will bring together researchers with expertise in different Earth Science disciplines, including observational geophysics, numerical modelling, and experiments, to discuss current concepts on dynamic processes occurring in the mantle and associated material cycles. A focus will be on the possible effects of multi-phase deformation and strain localization.
