Thank you for your interest in participating in the 2025 Chile Field Trip. This trip aims to foster collaboration among scientists of different nationalities and career stages and offer an opportunity for participants to receive a comprehensive introduction to Chilean geology. Participants will traverse a transect of the Chilean subduction zone from source to sink, to explore the intersection of magmatism, tectonism, and mass mobilization in central Chile.
This field trip open to both US and non-US scientists at any career stage interested in cross-disciplinary approaches to researching subduction systems. We encourage scientific backgrounds with interdisciplinary interests in volcanology, structural geology, geomorphology, and seismo-tectonics. Â All participants will be given opportunities to share their work and interests. Â Scientific conversations will be conducted primarily in English, however most field trip leaders will speak both English and Spanish.
Applications will be reviewed by field trip leaders and the Field Trip Subcommittee. Successful applicants will be notified in early November.Â
