JOINT CAT/SCAN-RETREAT WORKSHOP
Hotel Meranda, Camigliatello Sila, Italia
30 June – 2 July 2004
Note: Compressed Powerpoint files will be posted soon for easier downloading.
GENERAL ORGANIZATION:
The workshop begins with an introduction to the CAT/SCAN and RETREAT projects presented by lead PI’s, followed by comments from Leonard Johnson, Program Officer for Continental Dynamics at NSF. The first day is largely devoted to a topic relevant to both projects: mantle-asthenospheric flow, related to slab rollback, beneath the entire Italian Peninsula. The second day begins with a session devoted to the CAT/SCAN seismic experiment, seismotectonics of southern Italy, and a progress report on seismic and geodetic networks in southern Italy. During the remainder of the second day, participants will hear reports on final results and progress from research projects in RETREAT. On the third day, smaller breakout groups will plan future research and collaborative work between RETREAT and CAT/SCAN. The workshop closes with a plenary session: reports from the breakout groups and general discussion.
