Program Description

On January 19th-21st, the 2021 MagIC Workshop will offer four sessions covering a wide range of topics on rock magnetism and paleomagnetism. This will be an all online meeting using Zoom and sessions will have different start times to accommodate viewers throughout the global community. The talks will also be recorded and placed on MagIC's YouTube channel after the meeting. The first session titled "Unique Roles of Paleomagnetism in Understanding the Past" will start at 9:00 in the morning, PST. The second day will have two sessions: "Tectonic Applications of Paleomagnetism" starting at 8:00 PST and the second, "Rock and Paleomagnetic Methods, Instrumentation & Data Recovery" at 16:00 PST. On the morning of the third day we will have "Variations of the Magnetic Field Through Earth's History" starting at 9:00 PST.

Registration

Registration is open. To register fill out this form.

Zoom Teleconferencing Information

The talks during the workshop will be available via Zoom and will be recorded to be placed on our YouTube channel after the conference. Instructions on participating in the workshop via Zoom will be provided to registrants shortly before the first session.

MagIC Community Slack Workspace Information

The MagIC meeting will have talks and posters listed in the MagIC Community Slack workspace (magiccommunity.slack.com). Once you register, we will manually add you to the Slack workspace where we will share introductions and interact with other workshop participants. Each talk has a channel and we will post links to the talk recordings on YouTube soon after each session concludes. Each poster will have a channel where the poster can be downloaded and the presenter can answer questions. Once we have invited you to the workspace, please join and say hello in the #introduction channel.

Recorded Talks

Talks from this year's workshop will be placed on the MagIC YouTube channel. You can also see talks from the 2017 MagIC workshop and the 2020 MagIC Tutorial talks there.

Talk and Poster Abstracts

The deadline for abstracts for talks and posters is Jan 5th, 2021. The talks should be 30 minutes long with 10 minutes for questions. Every presenter is invited to contribute an abstract to the conference. These will be posted on the Slack channel for your talk. Please send your abstract as a maximum two page (text and figures) pdf document to Nick Jarboe (njarboe@ucsd.edu).

Poster Sessions

Poster sessions will be from 12:00-13:30 PST on Jan 20th and 6:00-7:30 PST on Jan 21st. Each session will begin with 3 minute pre-recorded presentations of the posters in the session. After the presentations there will be a group discussion period followed by time to meet with individual poster presenters on gather.town. Please see the instuctional email sent to participants on Jan. 17th for gather.town details. Each poster will have its own Slack channel with an abstract, poster pdf, presentation video, and other poster materials pinned to the top of the channel. Comments and questions can be put in the channel and responded to by the poster's presenter during the workshop.

Poster presenter information
A good size for posters is 180cm(6ft) by 120cm(4ft). It is a shape that displays well on computer monitors and will have a high enough resolution so zooming in works well when looked at as a pdf. You may use other dimensions if you like, as this is not a physical restriction due to the size of the poster board. For your 3 minute video, the usual format for these lightning talks at AGU is to show your poster while you present its content. You can also show one or two figures from the poster during the presentation or a video of you giving a brief overview of the poster.
