ESS Colloquium: Dr. Tianhaozhe Sun (Geological Survey of Canada, University of Victoria) "A Thin and Weak Lithosphere-Asthenosphere Boundary (LAB) Beneath the Oceanic Lithosphere and its Effects on Subduction Earthquake Cycle Deformation"

Bio: Tian Sun's research has been focused on subduction zone geodynamics. He uses numerical models to study how various geological and physical processes interact in governing fault slip behaviour, subduction forearc deformation and fluid flow, and large-scale lithospheric deformation over the earthquake cycle. He also collects and processes offshore and onshore geophysical data to constrain these models. Tian Sun is currently a Research Scientist at the Geological Survey of Canada, and an Adjunct Assistant Professor at the University of Victoria. Keywords: Geodynamics, Lithosphere-Asthenosphere Boundary, Subduction earthquake cycles, Modeling, Onshore and offshore geodesy, Plate tectonics Abstract: What enables plate tectonics – relatively rigid plates moving relative to one another atop the more viscous mantle – has long been an overarching question in Earth science. Numerous geophysical observations depict a sharp and distinct lithosphere-asthenosphere boundary (LAB) at the base of oceanic lithosphere,… Event interval: Single day event.

Abstract: Halogens (F, Cl, Br, and I) are an important group of volatile elements that are essential for the transport of metals in geofluids and for life on Earth. Despite the significance, their distribution and behavior in the continental crust remain poorly constrained because of analytical challenges. In this talk, I will present our recent results on halogen analyses of a series of crustal rocks, including glacial diamictites, loess, and high-grade metasedimentary rocks (Ivrea Zone, Italy). The new… Event interval: Single day event. Campus location: Johnson Hall (JHN). Online Meeting Link: https://washington.zoom.us/j/98791970331. Campus room: 377, QRC.

In the ‘Orient’ quad of the Okanogan Highlands, a dense concentration of historic mine sites and mineralized systems are spatially associated with the Eocene intrusions, suggesting much of the mineralization in the region formed in response to crustal extension during or shortly after the accretion of the Siletzia terrane.… Event interval: Single day event.

ESS Colloquium: Lucien Nana Yobo (Texas A&M University, Ocean Discovery Lecture Series) "Earth's Fiery Past: Large Igneous Provinces, Anomalous CO2, and their Environmental Impacts""

Abstract: Large igneous provinces (LIPs) are among the most influential drivers of global Earth system changes. These massive volcanic events are linked to extreme climate and ocean conditions, increasing global temperatures, ocean acidification, and widespread marine anoxia. ​​Their emplacement and CO2 release frequently align with some of Earth’s most rapid environmental shifts, including four of the five major mass extinctions—most notably the End-Permian extinction, the largest of the Big Five—highlighting their critical role in past Earth systems transitions. However, studying LIPs—particularly submarine ones—remains challenging, as much of their eruptive material is buried beneath the ocean or has been subducted over time. Consequently, much of our understanding of these events has often relied on sedimentary geochemical proxies. These proxies, including osmium isotopes, mercury concentrations, and carbonate dissolution patterns, have become essential tools for reconstructing LIP emplacement and assessi… Event interval: Single day event.

ESS Colloquium: Eric Steig (UW ESS & PCC) "Water isotopes are magical: fundamental things isotope records from ice cores tell us about climate variability and ice sheet change across timescales from decades to millennia"

Abstract: The discovery that oxygen and hydrogen isotopes in snowfall provide a window into the past through ice cores is more than six decades old.  Yet the “old” technology of water isotopes continues to be a cornerstone of our understanding of both past and current climate in the polar regions.  Recent advances include measurement methods that improve both resolution and precision; a revolution in dating of ice cores, allowing us to compare them with one another with high confidence; and the development of ways to use water-isotope data to constrain and validate climate model simulations. Three examples – on very different timescales – illustrate the continued magic of ice-core isotope records. First, we have long wanted to know how big the Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets may have been during the last glacial maximum, how much they thinned during the Holocene, and how small they were during previous interglacial periods, when sea level was much higher than present. We now know the answer to all these… Event interval: Single day event. Campus location: Johnson Hall (JHN). Campus room: JHN 075. Accessibility Contact: Disability Services Office, dso@uw.edu.
