T1. The formation and evolution of Iceland: magmatic, tectonic, and geomorphological processes

Convenors: Brennan Jordan (Brennan.Jordan@usd.edu), Tamara Carley (carleyt@lafayette.edu), Tenley Banik (tjbanik@ilstu.edu)

In this session, the Northeastern Section, for the first time, is looking toward the eastern margin of the North American Plate, and at Iceland in particular. This theme session is stand alone and separate from the July 2019 field trip to Iceland. However this session will provide invaluable learning opportunities for students and professionals interested in Iceland geology and especially for those who will attend the Iceland field trip. Contributions are encouraged on all aspects of the petrology, volcanology, tectonics, and geomorphology of Iceland and surrounding areas.
