Friday, March 9th, 2012

8:45 - 9:00 brief discussion of the goals of the project and introductions all around
9:00 – 9:40 Jamie Ryan, Susan Beck, and George Zandt - Upper Mantle and Lower Crustal Structure in Northern Bolivia from Receiver Functions
9:40 - 10:20 Kevin Ward, Susan Beck, and George Zandt - Shear-Wave Velocity Structure of the Central Andean (13ºS – 23ºS) Upper Lithosphere as Determined using Ambient Noise Tomography: Implications for Crustal Deformation History
10:20 to 10:40 - break
10:40 - 11:20 Abhash Kumar and Lara Wagner – Slab Seismicity in Peru and Bolivia
11:20 to 12:00 Alan Chapman and Mihai Ducea - Lithospheric Raindrops beneath thePeruvian Altiplano: Evidence from Back Arc Potassic Mafic Volcanic Rocks

1:00 to 1:40 Nate Eichelberger and Nadine McQuarrie- New Constraints on Age, Magnitude and Distribution of Fault Displacement within the Central Andean Orocline
1:40 to 2:20 Todd Ehlers and Richard Lease - Subandean Deformation and Erosion in Bolivia and Peru
2:20 – 3:00 Nick Perez, Justin Fitch, and Brian Horton - Neogene Structure, Stratigraphy and Geochronology of the Ayaviri Basin, Northern Altiplano, Southern Peru & New Timing Constraints on Paleogene Foreland Basin Evolution in the Altiplano of Southern Peru
3:00 to 3:20 - break
3:20 - 3:40 Joel Saylor and Brian Horton - Timing of Shortening and Sedimentation in the Northern Altiplano, Peru: Insights from Detrital Zircon Geochronology & Neogene Sedimentary and Stable Isotopic Record of the Condoroma Basin, Northern Altiplano, Peru
3:40 to 4:20 Nandini Kar and Carmie Garzione - Basin Evolution and Stable Isotope Records from the El Descanso-Yauri basin in the Peruvian Altiplano: Implications for Elevation Histories
4:20 to 4:00 Louise Jeffrey, Chris Poulsen, and Todd Ehlers - Surface Uplift in the Peruvian Andes Constrained by Monte Carlo Simulations of Canyon Incision

Saturday, March 10th, 2011

9:00 to 9:45 Bobby Karimi and Lindsay Williams will lead an informal discussion on their project plans.
10:00 – 12:00 small group discussions and planning for next year. We should probably hold two different sessions so that people who need to plug into several groups have the opportunity.

1:00 to 2:00 continue small group discussion if necessary.
2:00 to whenever – whole group discussion of steps toward integrations. Where can we make concrete connection at this stage? Ultimately, how will we bring the various data sets and approaches together?
