The 2nd TANDEM Symposium on Deep Earth Mineralogy
| Date: | 5-7 November, 2010 |
| Venue: | China University of Geosciences (Wuhan), China |
The symposium was successfully held at China University of Geosciences, Wuhan, during 5-7 Novermber, 2010, with about 130 participants from China, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, USA, and Germany. This followed the 1st symposium at Matsuyama in 2008, which was the first gathering of the TANDEM members so the main objective was to introduce each laboratory. Aiming at moving beyond introductions into practical exchanges of research/education activities, more science-oriented presentations were reported and discussed in the 2nd symposium. The meeting of representatives of the TANDEM laboratories was also held during the symposium, and it was agreed that the next symposium will be held in Matsuyama, Japan, in 2012.
Outstanding presentation awards for young scientists (Ph.D. students and PD fellows) were selected by senior professors. The awardees are as follows.
Oral presentation
・ Ms. Tingting Gu (Peking Univ.), "In situ high-pressure study of FeP: implications for planetary cores"
・ Dr. Tomohiro Ohuchi (GRC Ehime Univ.), "Simple-shear deformation of olivine using a deformation-DIA apparatus: implications for upper mantle seismic anisotropy"
・ Ms. Sutao Zhao (CUG Wuhan), "Subducting lithosphere does not weaken as it crosses the 660 km discontinuity"
Poster presentation
・ Mr. Fulong Wang (GRC Ehime Univ.),
"P-V-T equation of state of stishovite up to mid lower mantle conditions"
・ Mr. Chunyin Zhou (GRC Ehime Univ.), "Phase relations in (Mg0.93Fe0.07)SiO3 to 24 GPa: implications for seismic velocities of subducted harzburgite"
・ Dr. Xinzhuan Guo (ISEI Okayama Univ.), "Electrical conductivity anisotropy of deformed talc rocks and serpentinite at 3 GPa"

A mineral physics session for WPGM in Taipei
A session related to Deep Earth Mineralogy, entitled “Structure and Composition of the Earth’s Interior” was held during the Western Pacific Geophysical Meeting (WPGM) in Taipei on 22-25 June. This session was convened mainly by the representative persons of TANDEM members (i.e. Baosheng Li, SUNY; Jennifer Kung, NCKU; Tetsuo Irifune, GRC; Ian Jackson, ANU; Eiji Ohtani, Tohoku U.), and solicited presentations from experimental and computational studies on physical and chemical processes inside the Earth’s mantle and the core. For further details: http://www.agu.org/meetings/wp10/.
Special volume of Journal of Earth Sciences
A special volume of Journal of Earth Sciences (Springer) was published for celebration of the career contribution of Prof. Zhenmin Jin of China University of Geosciences (Wuhan). Zhenmin published over 110 scientific papers which highlight melt topology in partially molten mantle peridotite during ductile deformation, microfabrics in peridotite xenoliths of Eastern China, eclogite rheology, and physical properties of ultrahigh-pressure metamorphic rocks from China. He is a leading figure in high pressure Earth sciences of China, who contributes to broader scientific issues through his role as a senior CUG professor, member of the Chinese Academy of Science, and China NSF Advisory Committee. Zhenmin also plays as the representative of the TANDEM members in China, and convened the second TANDEM symposium to be held in Wuhan in Autumn 2010. The deadline for article submission was 15 March 2010.

International session in JPGU meeting
D a t e : 16-21 May 2009
An international session relevant to deep Earth mineralogy was held during the period of the annual meeting of Japan Geoscience Union (16-21 May). This session was run for three days, entitled asgDynamics and Evolution of the deep Earthh, convened by T.Katsura (Okayama Univ.), D. Zhao (Tohoku Univ.), and M.Kameyama (Ehime Univ.), in order to enhance internationalcommunications and collaborations in deep Earth mineralogy, particularly in the Asian region. Our global COE program contributed to invite some foreign researchers, including Dr.Yingwei Fei of Geophysical Laboratory, CIW, and Nadege Hilairet of GSECARS, Univ. Chicago, and will continue to play major roles in the corresponding international sessions in forthcoming years. Contributions of papers from TANDEM laboratories are to be most welcome in these sessions of the JPGU meeting held every May in Makuhari, near Tokyo.
