SUMMARY:Exhibition:ARCHIGRAM EXHIBITION OPENING
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition on View January 14 - February 19\nThis exhibition opening reception begins after Dennis Crompton's lecture in STAMPS Auditorium in the Walgreen Drama Center.\nThis exhibition celebrates the imagination and ingenuity of Archigram\, the British architects whose dynamic and provocative vision of future life brought the pop spirit to the architecture avant garde in 1960s Britain.\nVibrant\, playful\, optimistic\, and iconoclastic\, the visionary architectural projects presented by Archigram in exhibitions\, collages\, drawings and film\, played an important role in 1960s pop culture and have an enduring influence on architecture today. Archigram was founded in London in 1961 around a nucleus of young architects: Warren Chalk\, Peter Cook\, Dennis Crompton\, David Greene\, Ron Herron and Michael Webb. Inspired by pop culture\, advances in technology and the belief that architects had a responsibility to develop new ways of responding to social change\, the group rebelled against the conservative architectural establishment by launching a magazine – entitled Archigram – to express its ideas. \nOrganized by Dennis Crompton for Archigram. Supported by the Johe Fund. \nJoin us also for an opening lecture delivered by Dennis Crompton\, January 13 at 6:00pm in the Walgreen Drama Center's STAMPS Auditorium\, followed by an opening reception for the exhibition at the Liberty Research Annex.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Ann Arbor Street Paintings: Oil on Panel
DESCRIPTION:Carlye Crisler\, a well known Ann Arbor artist of en plein air (outdoor) painting\, is originally from the Bucktown district of Chicago. Her goal is to paint an environment or neighborhood by showing activities\, people and lighting at a particular time of day\, capturing an extended sense of place. In this collection of en plein air oil paintings\, Crisler has taken on complicated places with many textures and divisions of space. She embraces ambiguity with shapes of buildings broken by shadow and parts of them hidden by other things barely determined. In addition to a painter of urban landscapes\, Crisler also is a costumer\, figurative portrait painter and metal sculptor.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Leaders and the Rest: Boundaries and Belonging at the University of Michigan
DESCRIPTION:Who belongs at the University of Michigan? Who gets to draw its boundaries? Michigan students have asked and answered these questions for nearly two hundred years. Against a backdrop of local\, national\, and global change\, they have negotiated their place and redefined their responsibilities. At times\, students have debated among each other\, sparred with faculty and administrators\, negotiated with community members\, and contended with politicians. In so doing\, they have shaped the physical campus\, the student body\, the meaning of community\, and the university’s mission as a public institution.\n\nThis exhibit showcases key moments of student expression\, politics\, and culture from the first decades of the university’s existence in Ann Arbor\, through the upheavals of world wars\, and to the social and cultural turmoil of the late-twentieth century.\n\nOn display January 4-February 25\, 2017\, Hatcher Library Gallery (Room 100).\n\nThis LSA Bicentennial Theme Semester initiative is presented with support from the College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office. Additional support provided by the Department of History and the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies.

The symposium asks: In a time when humans have been fundamentally displaced from their presumed place of privilege\, philosophically as well as experientially\, should the disciplines of architecture and landscape architecture consider displacing themselves as well\, in order to establish new affiliations and avail new ways to approach contemporary questions of design in relation to the environment?\nBy bringing designers and scholars from these fields together the symposium and exhibition will highlight projects and ideas that are engaged with these issues from a variety of perspectives\, ranging from scale and experience to questions of matter. Participants will present research and work that use tactics of mediation to understand\, imagine\, interrupt\, and invent artifacts that exist at the large spatial and slow temporal scale of the Anthropocene.\nAmbiguous Territory will present design ideas and proposals from architects\, artists\, and landscape architects whose work challenges their disciplinary boundaries and long-held anthropocentric orientation and redefines the relationship between built and natural environments in an era of ecological anxiety.\nChairs:       \nKathy Velikov\, Associate Professor at the University of Michigan and principal of RVTR\nCathryn Dwyre\, Visiting Associate Professor at Pratt institute School of Architecture and partner at pneumastudio\nChris Perry\, Associate Professor at Rensselaer Architecture and partner at pneumastudio\nDavid Salomon\, Assistant Professor of Art History at Ithaca College.\nKeynotes:\nLiam Young\, urbanist\, designer and futurist\; founder of the futures think tank Tomorrows Thoughts Today (tomorrowsthoughtstoday.com)\; the ‘Unknown Fields Division’ (unknownfieldsdivision.com) at the Architectural Association in London\, and the ‘Fiction and Entertainment’ program at SciArc\nDavid Gissen\, author\, historian\, and Professor of Architecture and Visual and Critical Studies at the California College of the Arts and co-director of the Experimental History Project (http://davidgissen.org/)\nFor a full list of speakers and bios\, please visit the Ambiguous Territory symposium web page. \nAmbiguous Territory Symposium Schedule\nAll events in Taubman College Commons unless otherwise noted\nThursday October 5th\n5:00pm\nAmbiguous Territory Exhibition Reception\n(Taubman College Gallery)\n6:00pm\nKeynote Lecture: Liam Young\n(Art + Architecture Auditorium)\n \nFriday October 6th (all events occuring in The Commons)\n9:00am\nCoffee\n9:30am\nWelcome: Dean Jonathan Massey\nIntroductory Remarks: Associate Dean of Research and Creative Practice Geoffrey Thün\nSymposium Introduction: Kathy Velikov\n10:00am\nAtmospheric Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: Kathy Velikov\nSpeaker 1: Christopher Hight\nSpeaker 2: Lydia Kallipoliti\nSpeaker 3: Sean Lally\nRespondent: Meredith Miller\nRoundtable Discussion\n12:00pm\nLunch Break (lunch not provided)\n1:00pm\nBiologic Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: David Salomon\nSpeaker 1: Jennifer Peeples\nSpeaker 2: Linsdey french\nSpeaker 3: Ricardo de Ostos\nRespondent: Ellie Abrons\nRoundtable Discussion\n3:00pm\nCoffee Break\n3:30pm\nGeologic Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: Cathryn Dwyre and Chris Perry\nSpeaker 1: Alessandra Ponte\nSpeaker 2: Bradley Cantrell\nSpeaker 3: Rania Ghosn and El Hadi Jazairy\nRespondent: Mark Lindquist\nRoundtable Discussion\n5:30pm\nBreak\n6:00pm\nKeynote Lecture: David Gissen\nAmbiguous Territory Exhibition \nSeptember 27th – October 18th 2017\nUniversity of Michigan Taubman College Gallery\nDecember 2018 – January 2019\nPratt Manhattan Gallery\, New York

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:UM Bicentennial Special Van Vlack Lecture: Quasi-Periodic Crystals – A Paradigm Shift in Crystallography
DESCRIPTION:Crystallography has been one of the mature sciences. Over the years\, the modern science of crystallography that started by experimenting with x-ray diffraction from crystals in 1912\, has developed a major paradigm – that all crystals are ordered and periodic. Indeed\, this was the basis for the definition of “crystal” in textbooks of crystallography and x-ray diffraction. Based upon a vast number of experimental data\, constantly improving research tools\, and deepening theoretical understanding of the structure of crystalline materials no revolution was anticipated in our understanding the atomic order of solids.\n \nHowever\, such revolution did happen with the discovery of the Icosahedral phase\, the first quasi-periodic crystal (QC) in 1982\, and its announcement in 1984. QCs are ordered materials\, but their atomic order is quasiperiodic rather than periodic\, enabling formation of crystal symmetries\, such as icosahedral symmetry\, which cannot exist in periodic materials. The discovery created deep cracks in this paradigm\, but the acceptance by the crystallographers' community of the new class of ordered crystals did not happen in one day. In fact it took almost a decade for QC order to be accepted by most crystallographers. The official stamp of approval came in a form of a new definition of “Crystal” by the International Union of Crystallographers. The paradigm that all crystals are periodic has thus been changed. It is clear now that although most crystals are ordered and periodic\, a good number of them are ordered and quasi-periodic.\n \nWhile believers and nonbelievers were debating\, a large volume of experimental and theoretical studies was published\, a result of a relentless effort of many groups around the world. Quasi-periodic materials have developed into an exciting interdisciplinary science. This talk will outline the discovery of QCs and describe the important role of electron microscopy as an enabling discovery tool.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Constructing Gender
DESCRIPTION:Ask U-M students\, alumni\, or fans what symbolizes the University of Michigan\, and you’ll likely hear the Big House\, the Diag\, along with the Michigan Union and the Michigan League. Since they officially opened in 1919 and 1929\, respectively\, the Union and League have been destinations for generations of Wolverines yet few know the rich history of the buildings’ origins or about the architects who brought them both to life: brothers and U-M alums Irving K. and Allen Pond.\n\nThe exhibition\, organized in celebration of the University of Michigan’s bicentennial in 2017\, illuminates the architecture and bustling student life of these iconic buildings using original drawings\, renderings\, photographs\, color studies\, and even dance cards from the Bentley Historical Library\, which serves as the University of Michigan archives. These fascinating documents reveal how the buildings were conceived\, constructed\, and first occupied by students and alumni. Guest curated by Nancy Bartlett of the Bentley Historical Library\, the exhibition reveals how the Ponds meticulously conceived and constructed the two clubs—one for men\, one for women—by weaving ideas about gender and society into the very fabric of the buildings themselves.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run
DESCRIPTION:In 2013\, artist Ernestine Ruben (BSDEs ’53) photographed the once-famed industrial complex Willow Run in Washtenaw County\, Michigan. Designed by her grandfather\, Detroit architect Albert Kahn\, for the Ford Motor Company\, Willow Run was an exemplar of American defense manufacturing because of its efficient mass-production of B-24 Liberators during World War II.\n\nFor this exhibition\, Ruben overlaid interior views of the now-dormant factory with imagined glimpses into her body’s interior landscape. The resulting compositions seem to breathe energy and light into the stagnant and cavernous spaces of Willow Run and suggest a longing for a productive existence undeterred by mortality for both Willow Run and the artist. Her grandfather’s role in the history of the site underscores Ruben’s personal connection.\n\nThe exhibition presents Ruben’s photographs of Willow Run in UMMA’s Photography Gallery and an original film—co-created by Ruben and video artist Seth Bernstein and featuring an original score by award-winning composer Stephen Hartke—in the Museum’s Forum.\n\nLead support for Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run: Mobilizing Memory is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.\n\n\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Moving Image: Landscape
DESCRIPTION:Moving Image: Landscape explores traditional notions of landscape through four very different time-based works by artists Jim Campbell\, Antti Laitinen\, Joanie Lemercier\, and Rick Silva.\n\nCampbell’s recent body of work\, including Seal Rock\, presents pixilated images of landscapes created with grids of LEDs. The low-resolution LEDs create a tension between representation and abstraction\, provoking viewers to interpret visual information on their own. In the three-channel video It’s My Island Laitinen builds his own island in the Baltic Sea by dragging two hundred sand bags into the water over a period of three months. The work explores ideas of nationality\, citizenship\, and identity as the artist creates his own single-citizen micro-nation. Lemercier’s computer-generated print Landforms uses patterns of black dots and projected light to create the illusion of three-dimensionality and movement when seen from a distance. The effects are more realistic than a still image\, but still unsettlingly artificial. Silva’s Render Garden explores the digitized landscape\, including remix and glitch aesthetics\, through software that endlessly generates new plant combinations.\n\nThroughout the next year UMMA will present a series of exhibitions drawn from the Borusan Contemporary Art Collection in Istanbul. The Borusan’s thirty-year-old collection includes significant works across a variety of genres\, and since 2011 it has focused on media arts. The works exhibited here address formal concerns such as abstraction and color\, and conceptual topics such as identity or ecological issues\; many represent traditional categories such as portraiture and landscape that find new resonance when explored through the strategies of dynamic technology.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\,\nthe Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Protecting Wisdom: Tibetan Book Covers from the MacLean Collection
DESCRIPTION:Protecting Wisdom: Tibetan Book Covers from the MacLean Collection is the first major exhibition to examine the subject of Tibetan book covers. For Tibetan Buddhists\, books are a divine presence in which the Buddha lives and reveals himself\, and they are venerated and handled with the utmost respect. The exhibition features 33 book covers dating from the eleventh to the eighteenth century that represent the glorious iconographic array and non-figural decoration typical of these sacred items. The majority of covers in the exhibition are Tibetan Buddhist\, but the exhibition also includes a rare Bon-religion cover and two covers from Mongolia\, as well as an important pair of covers produced circa 1411 for the Chinese Ming emperor Yongle. Protecting Wisdom presents a stunning visual display that illuminates a virtually unknown type of art\, one that will charm and intrigue both those familiar and unfamiliar with Tibetan art.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Aesthetic Movement
DESCRIPTION:Pictorialism was the first truly international photography movement\, and its practitioners\, among them Alfred Stieglitz\, Edward Steichen and Gertrude Käsebier\, sought to position photography as a legitimate aesthetic art form. They favored soft-focus images that drew upon the conventions of important artists and movements of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries—the influence of the Pre-Raphaelites\, James McNeill Whistler\, Japonisme\, and Art Nouveau are readily seen in the images on view in this exhibition.\n\nIn 1902 Alfred Stieglitz and other Pictorialist photographers founded the Photo-Secession in New York\, with Camera Work as the flagship periodical that published images by the group. Their poetic compositions drawn from contemporary life\, combined with the use of expensive and labor-intensive printing materials such as platinum and gum bichromate\, established these photographs as complex and nuanced works of high artistic quality. The exhibition features work by the principal Pictorialists\, including Stieglitz\, Steichen\, Käsebier\, Clarence White\, Paul Strand\, and Alvin Langdon Coburn.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM Theory Seminar | Programmable Matter: Using 3D Printed Elastic Instabilities to Direct Shape Transformation
DESCRIPTION:3D printed programmable matter has the potential to revolutionize manufacturing in fields ranging from organs-on-a-chip to architecture to soft robotics. By expanding the pallet of 3D printable materials to include the use stimuli responsive inks\, this nascent 3D printing technique promises precise control over patterned shape transformations. With the goal of creating a new manufacturing technique\, we have recently introduced a biomimetic printing platform that enables the direct control of local anisotropy into both the elastic moduli and the swelling response of the ink. \n\nWe have drawn inspiration from nastic plant movements to design a phytomimetic ink and printing process that enables patterned dynamic shape change upon exposure to water\, and possibly other external stimuli. Our novel fiber-reinforced hydrogel ink enables local control over anisotropies not only in the elastic moduli\, but more importantly in the swelling. Upon hydration\, the hydrogel changes shape according the arbitrarily complex microstructure imparted during the printing process. \n\nTo use this process as a design tool\, we must solve the inverse problem of prescribing the pattern of anisotropies required to generate a given curved target structure. We show how to do this by constructing a theory of anisotropic plates and shells that can respond to local metric changes induced by anisotropic swelling. A series of experiments corroborate our model by producing a range of target shapes inspired by the morphological diversity of flower petals.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CSAAW Talk: Modeling smoking and depression comorbidity
DESCRIPTION:Smoking and depression are major contributors to mortality and disability in the US. They are also significantly associated with each other\, with higher rates of smoking among depressed populations compared to the general population. Research suggests that smoking and depression may be subject to feedback effects\, as depression is known to predict future smoking\, while smoking also predicts future depression. These dynamics at the individual level could have important implications for population health outcomes. \n\nI aim to develop a joint model of smoking and depression comorbidity that uses nationally representative data to project future trajectories of smoking\, depression\, and mortality in the US. A model of smoking behavior and depression co-morbidity could explore policy approaches likely to produce the largest population health gains\, and guide decision-making to address smoking disparities by mental health status.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:PhonDi Discussion Group
DESCRIPTION:Björn Köhnlein will give a presentation on \"Prosodic and segmental structure at the interface of synchrony and diachrony\"\n\nAbstract\nProsody\, the structure above the individual sounds of a language (e.g. syllables\, stress / foot structure\, intonation)\, often interacts with segmental structure in language change. This talk discusses the complexity of such processes\, with a focus on the relationship between vowel height / vowel duration\, obstruent voicing\, intonational tone\, and abstract prosodic categories (syllable structure\, foot structure). As I show on the basis of data from Continental West Germanic\, such interactions can lead to a variety of innovations in languages: for instance\, intonational languages can introduce lexically contrastive tonal contours (similar to tonal languages)\; some stressed vowels can lengthen while others shorten at the same time\; seemingly opaque phonological rules can emerge\, as well as apparent cases of subtractive morphology.\n\nThe talk also addresses the question how speakers integrate such novel patterns into the grammar. In a nutshell\, I shall argue that a more refined set of prosodic representations resolves many emerging problems and helps to improve our understanding of the interface between synchronic and diachronic phonology. The main idea is that prosodic structure can sometimes be retained even after corresponding segmental information has been deleted.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Drumming Literature into the Ground: Dada and the Materiality of Sound
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for the German Studies Colloquium for a talk on \n\nFriday\, February 10th\, 2 pm\n3308 MLB\n\nDrumming Literature into the Ground: Dada and the Materiality of Sound\n\nTyler Whitney\nUniversity of Michigan\n \nScholarship on early Dada has productively highlighted the movement’s innovative approach to visual practices of photomontage and the heterogeneous juxtaposition of found objects.  Transferred to the acoustic register\, scholars have focused on the group’s unique contributions to sound poetry\, oral recitation\, and the reconfiguration of acoustical relations between performers and audience members.  These existing studies have\, however\, tended to analyze the movement’s take on sound art exclusively in terms of the voice\, articulation\, and the physiology of speech.  What has remained absent is any consideration of the reception of sound\, of listening and the ear.  Drawing on my current book project exploring the interaction between acoustical modernity and literary modernism\, this paper will analyze several literary works by the Dada writer and performer Richard Huelsenbeck as an articulation of what I term modernity’s tympanic regime\, that is\, a historically specific set of material and discursive practices predicated on processes of intermedial transduction and physical contact between vibrating surfaces.  In doing so\, I seek to write the ear back into the history of Dada\, exposing the group’s strategic mobilization of noise in the service of sonic warfare\, or\, the modulation of mood and affect via percussive effects and their textual inscription. \n\nFor a copy of the paper\, please contact Julia Hell (hell@umich.edu).\n\nFree and open to the public - visit our website at www.lsa.umich.edu/german/events for updates and details.\n\nFor further information\, also contact Julia Hell at hell@umich.edu

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Applied Interdisciplinary Mathematics
DESCRIPTION:Piezoelectric material has drawn enormous attention in recent decades due to its ability to convert mechanical deformation energy into electrical potential energy\, and vice versa. It has been applied to both energy harvesting and passive vibration control applications. In this talk\, we will discuss the effect of piezoelectric material on the stability of a flexible flag using a fully coupled fluid-solid-electric model. An inviscid vortex-sheet model and a linear electro-mechanical model are combined to describe the problem. We find that the critical flutter speed is increased due to the extra damping effect of piezoelectric material\, and can also be altered by tuning the output inductance-resistance circuit. Optimal resistances and inductances are found that either maximize or minimize the flutter speed. The former application is useful for vibration control while the latter is important for energy harvesting. We will also briefly discuss other recent projects including snake locomotion and vortex wake dynamics in channels. Speaker(s): Xiaolin Wang (University of Michigan)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CANCELLED:  Theoretical statistics is the theory of applied statistics:  How to think about what we do
DESCRIPTION:Foundations of Belief & Decision Making Lecture\n\nWorking scientists and engineers commonly feel that philosophy is a waste of time.  But theoretical and philosophical principles can guide practice\, so it makes sense for us to keep our philosophical foundations up to date.  Much of the history of statistics can be interpreted as a series of expansions and inclusions:  formalizations of procedures and ideas which had been previously considered outside the bounds of formal statistics.  In this talk we discuss several such episodes\, including the successful (in my view) incorporations of hierarchical modeling and statistical graphics into Bayesian data analysis\, and the bad ideas (in my view) of null hypothesis significance testing and attempts to compute the posterior probability of a model being true.  I'll discuss my own philosophy of statistics and also the holes in my current philosophical framework.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Geometry
DESCRIPTION:Matveev and Piergallini independently showed that\, with a small number of known exceptions\, any triangulation of a three-manifold can be transformed into any other triangulation of the same three-manifold with the same number of vertices\, via a sequence of 2-3 and 3-2 moves. We can interpret this as showing that the \"2-3 Pachner graph\" of such triangulations is connected. This is useful for defining invariants of a three-manifold based on the triangulation. However\, there are \"would-be\" invariants that can only be defined on triangulations with certain properties\, for example 1-efficiency or having only essential edges. Unfortunately\, there are no similar connectivity results for the subgraphs of the Pachner graph with such properties. In this talk\, I will describe a new connectivity result for a property implied by both 1-efficiency and essential edges: that of the triangulation having no degree one edges.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HET Seminar | Radioactive Iron Rain: Evidence of a Recent Nearby Supernova Explosion
DESCRIPTION:A very close supernova explosion could have caused a mass extinction of life in Earth. In 1996\, Brian Fields\, the late Dave Schramm and the speaker proposed looking for unstable isotopes such as Iron 60 that could have been deposited by a recent nearby supernova explosion. A group from the Technical University of Munich has discovered Iron 60 in deep-ocean sediments and ferromanganese crusts due to one or more supernovae that exploded O(100) parsecs away about 2.5 million years ago. These results have recently been confirmed by a group from the Australian National University\, and the Munich group has also discovered supernova Iron 60 in lunar rock samples and in microfossils of magnetotactic bacteria. \nThis colloquium will discuss the data and their interpretation in terms of supernova models\, and the possible implications for life on Earth.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Combinatorics
DESCRIPTION:The linear system |D| of a divisor D on a metric graph has the structure of a cell complex. And the set R(D) of corresponding tropical rational functions has the structure of a tropical semimodule. We introduce the anchor divisors and anchor cells in it - they serve as the landmarks for us to compute the f-vector of the complex and find all cells in the complex. Then we compute the minimal set of generators of R(D) using the landmarks. We apply these methods to some examples - namely the canonical linear systems of some small trivalent graphs. Fixing the graph-theoretic type of a metric graph\, we discuss the subdivision of the cone of metrics by the combinatorial structure of D.\n Speaker(s): Bo Lin (UC Berkeley)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: Early Stages of Continental Rifting: Top-down and Bottom-up Perspectives
DESCRIPTION:Continental rifting is a key facet of plate tectonics that can evolve into ocean basins. The dynamics of continental break-up has been studied for decades\, yet questions remain about the origin of rifts. In this work we investigate the onset of continental two regions: the Natron Rift in Tanzania and the broadly deforming island of Madagascar. We first quantify surface motions with high precision Global Navigation Satellite System / Global Positioning System (GNSS/GPS) data. We find slip along the Natron Rift coincident with volcanic activity at a nearby volcano that appears to be localized along the major border fault. In Madagascar surface observations indicate differential extensional and transform movements between northern and southern Madagascar. We then employ analytical and numerical models to assess the relative roles of long-term tectonic forces and short-term magmatic processes on our examples of narrow and broad continental rifting. Our work suggests that in regions of broad deformation coupling to upwelling and diverging asthenospheric flow is consistent with surface observations\, and in narrow continental rifts volcanism is key in promoting rifting processes.
