SUMMARY:Understanding large igneous provinces and volcanic rift margins
DESCRIPTION:given by Dr Dougal Jerram (DougalEARTH Ltd) \nAbstract \n\nLarge Igneous Provinces (LIPs) represent some of the largest eruptive episodes on the planet and along with their associated volcanic rifted margins\, they have left a great footprint on the geology of the planet. This talk will present a number of examples from around the globe looking at the scales and occurrences of LIPs and studies into both onshore and offshore volcanic margins. We will touch on the relationship with climate change\, offshore exploration and the possibilities for carbon sequestration. Look at how we can build 3D models of key outcrops and the use of modern day analogues to help unravel their evolution.\n\n\n\n\n\nDougal Jerram (BSc Cardiff\, PhD Liverpool) began his professional career in 1996 with a two-year postdoctoral position at the University of Würzburg\, Germany. In 1998 he returned to the UK and spent 13 years as research fellow\, lecturer and senior lecturer at the University of Durham. In June 2011 he set up DougalEARTH Ltd.\, where he combines his pursuits in consultancy\, media\, research and teaching\, and joined the University of Oslo as a 20% research professor. He has published extensively in the scientific literature as well as penning a number of books for both children and adults including; Victor the Volcano\, Dig to the Centre of the Earth\, Introducing Volcanology\, Volcanoes of Europe\, and The travel Guide the Centre of the Earth\, as well as two of the geological field guide series (Igneous and metamorphic guides).   He has also appeared on the BBC\, National Geographic\, Discovery Channel\, History Channel and Channel 4\, and on many other TV and radio programs\, relating the earth sciences to the general public. In 2006 he received the Murchison Fund by the Geological Society of London for his early career contribution to geology. \nView this talk in the Members’ Section.
