1 5th International Workshop on Collapse Calderas December 7-11, 2014, Taupo, New Zealand Caldera Volcanism and Society Organizers: Jim Cole, Darren Gravley, Ben Kennedy Department of Geological Sciences, University of Canterbury, Christchurch, New Zealand Nico Fournier, Gill Jolly. Trudy Stuart GNS Science, Wairakei Research Centre, Taupo, New Zealand

2 What is the Workshop on Collapse Calderas? The IAVCEI Commission on Collapse Calderas (CCC) was created in March 2008 to have a wider and deeper understanding on calderas. The idea to file for a commission emerged in 2005, during a workshop on Caldera Volcanism, at which the Collapse Calderas Work Group was formed. The CCC ( includes a wide spectrum of disciplines, such as caldera geology, geophysics, mathematical and analogue modelling, subcaldera magma chamber processes, volcanic hazard and risk management, economic benefits and environmental research. Thus, it promotes interdisciplinary interaction to help solve the many questions regarding the formation of collapse calderas, their evolution, and affect on society. Successful workshops are organized on regular basis, and have been previously held at Tenerife, Canarias (2005), Mexican Volcanic Belt (2008), Reunion Island (2010) and Bolsena, Italy (2012). Venue The 5th Workshop on Collapse Calderas is scheduled for December 7-11, 2014 at Taupo, New Zealand. These dates have been chosen to precede the American Geophysical Union (AGU) Fall Meeting in San Francisco, which is scheduled for December 15-19, Taupo is located on the shore of Lake Taupo, at the southern end of the central Taupo Volcanic Zone (TVZ), the most frequently active and productive Quaternary silicic system on Earth. Central TVZ is characterised by intense rhyolitic volcanism associated with 8 calderas and caldera complexes. The most recent ignimbrite eruption is from Taupo caldera, in the northeastern part of Lake Taupo in 232AD. Unrest at TVZ is closely monitored by Geonet, a national hazard monitoring service, which is a collaborative operation between the NZ Earthquake Commission and GNS Science. TVZ is also the site of numerous thermal areas, many of which are the sites of commercial geothermal fields. The relationship between Caldera Volcanoes and Society (including unrest and resources related to calderas) will be a focus of this Workshop. Overseas participants to the Workshop will need to fly into Auckland International Airport, and either fly on to Taupo by Air New Zealand Link (45 minutes) or go by road (bus or rental car) to Taupo (approx 4 hours). The Workshop will start and finish in Taupo. Workshop outline The workshop, like previous meetings, will be devoted to understanding many different aspects of calderas. There will be four broad themes: 1. Physical Setting and Volcanology (including: volcano-tectonic setting, formation, structure, deposits; eruption processes; subsidence): 2. Magma processes (including: anatomy of plutonic magma systems; plutonic/volcanic relationships); 3. Resources related to calderas (including: geothermal activity; mineralisation; water; environmental issues); 4. Unrest (including: timescales of caldera formation; monitoring techniques; the effects of eruptions on infrastructure). The workshop will begin with an overview field trip of calderas of the Taupo Volcanic Zone on Sunday, December 7, which will be combined with a final field trip for the accompanying 3 rd International Course on Collapse Calderas. Presentations will consist of 2 full days of scientific meeting (December 8 and 9), with oral and poster sessions, and 2 further days of field trip (December 10 and 11), one of which will be based around Lake Taupo, and the other around Lake Rotorua. Thematic discussions are planned at regular intervals during both the presentations, and field trips.

3 Expressions of Interest An early expression of interest will ensure the1 st and 2 nd circulars are sent to you as soon as available. Costs The fee for participants to the workshop will be given in the 1 st circular to be distributed in June Very limited financial support may be available for students submitting a request letter attached to the abstract. Deadlines - Abstract submission: April 30, Registration deadline: June 30, Deadline for financial aid request for students: February 28, The workshop will be limited to 50 participants, with a first-come, first-served basis. We recommend you to register as soon as possible, and not to wait for the deadline, to assure your participation to this event.

5 What is the Course on Collapse Calderas? The IAVCEI Commission on Collapse Calderas (CCC) was created in March 2008 to have a wider and deeper understanding on calderas. The idea to file for a commission emerged in 2005, during a workshop on Caldera Volcanism, at which the Collapse Calderas Work Group was formed. The CCC ( includes a wide spectrum of disciplines, such as caldera geology, geophysics, mathematical and analogue modelling, sub-caldera magma chamber processes, volcanic hazard and risk management, economic benefits and environmental research. The first International Course on Collapse Calderas was held in Reunion in 2010, and the second course was held in Bolsena, Italy, in The courses are designed to give undergraduate and postgraduate students the chance to improve their understanding of calderas from a panel of expert instructors. Venue The 3 rd International Course on Collapse Calderas is scheduled for December 5-7, 2014, and will precede the 5 th International Workshop on Collapse Calderas (December 7-11, 2014), with one days overlap. The Course is open to undergraduate and postgraduate students. It will be held in Taupo, on the edge of Lake Taupo, the source of the 232AD Taupo Ignimbrite eruption. Course outline The Course will consist of 2 days of theoretical lessons (December 5 and 6, 2014) and 1 day of field trip (December 7, 2014) providing an overview of calderas in the Taupo Volcanic Zone. This field trip will be combined with one for the accompanying Workshop.The main objective of the Course is to offer the students introductory modules on the four themes of the following Workshop (physical setting and volcanology of calderas; magma processes; caldera resources; caldera unrest). Instructors Instructors will come from a number of Universities, GNS Science, and other institutions both in New Zealand and overseas. Expressions of Interest An early expression of interest will ensure the 1 st and 2 nd circulars are sent to you as soon as available. Costs The fee for participants to the Course will be given in the 1 st circular, to be distributed in June Availability of backpacker accommodation will keep the cost to a minimum. The course will be run at GNS Science facilities in Wairakei, just north of Taupo. Limited financial support may be available for students submitting a request letter by February 28, Deadlines - Registration deadline: June 30, The Course will be limited to 20 participants, with a firstcome, first-served basis. We recommend to register as soon as possible, and not to wait for the deadline, to assure your participation. For any further information, please contact Jim Cole (jim.cole@canterbury.ac.nz).
