As in previous CIDER summer programs, the program will begin with 2 weeks of KITP style unstructured program, as well as 2 weeks of tutorial for advanced graduate students and post-docs, followed by 2 weeks of follow-up "workshop", during which themes that emerged during the tutorial will be further explored within multidisciplinary teams including junior and senior participants. | As in previous CIDER summer programs, the program will begin with 2 weeks of KITP style unstructured program, as well as 2 weeks of tutorial for advanced graduate students and post-docs, followed by 2 weeks of follow-up "workshop", during which themes that emerged during the tutorial will be further explored within multidisciplinary teams including junior and senior participants. | ||

"From mantle to crust: continental formation and destruction"CIDER 2013 Summer Program, July 1 - August 2, 2013, University of California, Berkeley (CA) |
The purpose of CIDER 2013 is to bring together scientists from different disciplines to better understand how and when continents are formed and destroyed. A specific objective is to draw together independent datasets, ranging from geophysics (seismology, mineral physics, rheology, geodynamics) to geochemistry to surface processes. One goal will be to develop a synthesized view of the thermal, compositional, rheological, and geochronological structure of continents, from the lithospheric mantle to the crust. Continents and the processes involved in making continental crust play a fundamental role in modulating the thermal evolution of Earth’s interior, long-term climate change, and the evolution of life. These processes, themselves, can influence the growth, destruction and compositional evolution of continents. Thus, a second goal is to use continents as a means of better understanding the nature of coupling between the deep Earth and the exogenic system (ocean, atmosphere, biosphere). The time is ripe to bring these disparate datasets and perspectives together. With these constraints, participants will work together to explore new and existing models for continent formation and destruction from the Archean to the present, and in particular, use continent evolution as a foundation for better understanding the science of truly whole-Earth system.
