Ernst. The theme of the sessions reflected his diverse research interests. Up-to-date scientific contributions that resulted from the symposium were published in 2004–2005 issues of International Geology Review and are collected in this International Book Series volume. The volume’s 36 research papers center on the petrologic and tectonic evolution of convergent plate margins, specifically blueschists, eclogites, and other subduction-zone high-P and ultrahigh-P metamorphic rocks. The book leads off with several general process-oriented papers. It then presents groups of papers combined geographically: Himalayas, Kazakhstan, western China, eastern China, Taiwan, South Korea, Japan, western North America, and the Dominican Republic. In many ways, papers in the volume mirror Ernst’s scientific contributions that integrate mineralogy, petrology, geochemistry, regional geology, and plate tectonics. They record the ways our science has moved forward as an outgrowth of the ideas and inspiration of Gary Ernst. |
