Program: The School consists of:

• One day for student presentations
• 5 days of lectures
• One day of practical sessions in the laboratory
• 3 days for field trips to high-pressure, prograde peridotite and serpentinites from Cerro del Almirez (Sierra Nevada), and the Ronda Peridotite.

TOPICS COVERED: Subduction magmatism and continental crustal growth; Metamorphic records of subduction-zone devolatilization; Experimental constraints on subduction-related magmatism; Subduction-zone geochemical mixing in fluids and melange; High and ultrahigh-pressure rocks: occurrences and microstructures; Numerical models of Exhumation of high and ultra-high pressure rocks; Experimental constraints on trace element recycling in subduction zones; Tracers of the slab: radiogenic and Li isotopes; Rheology of subduction zone: experimental constraints; Slab-Mantle interactions and subduction zones dynamics; High pressure ultramafic rocks: natural occurrences and phase relationships; The effect of water on the crystallography of high-pressure minerals; Hydration of incoming oceanic plates and dehydration of slabs: Implications for intraslab seismicity and arc volcanism.; Geochronology of HP and UHP rocks and inferences on the rates of subduction and exhumation processes; Seismic anisotropy and mineral LPO of subduction zones.
