Convener:*Nobuo Geshi(Geological Survey of Japan, The National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology), Takuya NISHIMURA(Disaster Prevention Research Institute, Kyoto University), Ryuta FURUKAWA(Geological Survey of Japan, National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology), Daisuke MIURA(Geosphere Sciences, Civil Engineering Research Laboratory, Central Research Institute of Electric Power Industry), Takeshi Hasegawa(Department of Earth Sciences, College of Science, Ibaraki University), Kiyoshi Toshida(Geosphere Science Sector, Civil Engineering Research Laboratory, Central Research Institute of Electric Power Industry), Chair:Yuki Suzuki(Earthquake Research Institute, University of Tokyo)

The principal aims of this session are to advance our understandings in the relation among volcanic activity, ground deformation and tectonics on the viewpoints of volcano-tectonics. We welcome all contributions based on fieldwork, geophysical or geodetic measurements, analog experiment and analytical and numerical simulations, for unraveling volcanism in temporally and spatially various scales. The session involves the related topics, are the followings: (a) the deep structure of volcanoes; (b) emplacement mechanism and their activities of magma chamber; (c) various intrusions, growth and emplacement mechanisms of dykes; (d) relationship between the volcanic activities and near-field earthquakes; and (e) magma storage and eruption process in caldera-forming eruption. We of course welcome the studies of subaerial and submarine volcanisms, and those of other planets.
