We invite you to contribute to our interdisciplinary core session at the
2023 AGU Fall Meeting: *DI010 - Of Cores We Can: Interdisciplinary Studies
of Earth and Planetary Cores*
(https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm23/prelim.cgi/Session/188890). We invite
contributions from both Earth and Planetary scientists who are interested
in the origins, compositions, and processes of cores of planetary bodies.
We especially welcome studies combining insights from multiple disciplines
to tackle big questions.



*Session description:*
A planet’s core is often its most enigmatic and extreme region. A core's
dynamic evolution results from the combination of its thermal, material,
and electrical properties, which manifest in its magnetic and seismic
structures. Our understanding of these deep interior regions is made
possible through synergistic insights, and affects our outlook on planet
formation, evolution, habitability and more. With current abilities to
seismically image different planetary cores, observe core dynamo fields
with better spatio-temporal resolution, replicate chemistry and properties
at extreme conditions in labs, and simulate their complex conditions and
dynamics, we are poised for transformative insights on planetary cores.

We bring together studies from Earth and space science disciplines and
across planetary bodies with a common goal of holistically understanding
the complex systems of Earth and planetary cores. We encourage
contributions from disciplines including, but not limited to, seismology,
mineral physics, geochemistry, paleo- and geomagnetism and dynamics.



*Conveners*:

Daniel A Frost – University of South Carolina

Meryem Berrada – University of Hawaii

William Davis – Scripps Institution of Oceanography

Rebecca Fischer - Harvard University



The *abstract deadline is the 2nd of August 2023* (23:59 EDT/03:59 +1 GMT)

We look forward to seeing you all in San Francisco.
