Scientific Program:
Session 1: Fundamental Processes in Rock and Paleomagnetism (Convenors : Ramon Egli & Agnes Kontny)
This session focuses on the physical and chemical mechanisms controlling magnetic remanence acquisition, stability, and alteration in natural and anthropogenic materials. Contributions addressing experimental, theoretical, and methodological advances in rock magnetism and paleomagnetism are especially welcome.
Session 2: Paleogeography and Plate Tectonics (Convenors : Paul Antonio & François Demory)
This session explores paleomagnetic constraints on continental drift, terrane motions, supercontinent cycles, and plate reconstructions. It also addresses how magnetic data provide insights into deformation, uplift, basin evolution, and lithospheric processes, including studies of magnetic anisotropy that integrate structural geology, geodynamics, and rock magnetism.
Session 3: Geodynamo Processes, Geomagnetic Field Behavior, and Planetary Magnetism (Convenors : Elina Aidona & Paul Antonio)
This session addresses the dynamics of the geodynamo and the variability of magnetic fields in Earth and other planetary bodies. Contributions on reversals, secular variation (including archaeomagnetism), planetary dynamos, crustal magnetization, meteorites, and integrated observational and modeling approaches are encouraged.
Session 4: Environmental and Sedimentary Magnetism (Convenors : Sonia Rousse & Ramon Egli)
This session explores magnetic signals in sediments and soils as tracers of environmental, climatic, and anthropogenic change. Contributions may address depositional and diagenetic processes, high-resolution paleoclimate reconstructions, urban pollution (including air pollution), land-use change, and archaeological applications of environmental magnetism.
Session 5: Magnetism of Volcanic and Igneous Systems — A Tribute to Michel Prévot (Convenors : Agnes Kontny & Pierre Camps)
This session is dedicated to advances in the understanding of magnetic properties in volcanic and igneous rocks. It honors Michel Prévot’s contributions, with topics including thermoremanent processes, viscous magnetization, pTRM self-reversal, and geomagnetic field fluctuations (from secular variation to reversals), as well as True Polar Wander in connection with his work.
Session 6: Emerging Topics and Interdisciplinary Applications (Convenors : François Demory & François Leveque)
This session welcomes innovative approaches and cross-disciplinary applications of magnetism in Earth and planetary sciences. Contributions presenting novel methods, datasets, or conceptual frameworks are especially encouraged.
