Lasi II: Physical geology of subvolcanic systems: Laccoliths, Sills, and Dykes / Lasi II: Физическая геология субвулканических систем: лакколиты, силлы и дайки

Lasi II was the second in a series on international meetings dealing with the physical geology of subvolcanic systems and demonstrated the diversity of techniques utilised in the analysis of shallow intrusions. These included both numerical and analogue modelling of magmatic processes, the analysis of magnetic fabrics to understand magma flow, the interpretation of seismic reflection data as well as outcrop-based studies. This diversity of research methodologies was applied to a range of shallow intrusions including sills, dykes and laccoliths as well as the interaction of magma with sediments. The presentations provided new insights into the morphological development of igneous intrusions, in particular re-assessments of the controls on their emplacement; the interactions between propagating magma bodies, between intrusions and overlying volcanic centres as well as magma-sediments interactions and their potential climatic effects. <...>
