Since 2002, the open LASI community gathers scientists interested in shallow-level tabular igneous intrusion. Four international conferences have been held since then (and a fifth one is planned for the next year), each one with 40-50 participants from 10-17 countries, presenting a similar numbers of oral papers and attending altogether a field trip to tabular intrusions. The conferences put in evidence the vitality of this research community as well as the relevance of the topic to societal needs such as hydrocarbon and ore mineral exploration, natural hazards, and climate chage.

This website is a reference tools for researchers interested in shallow-level intrusions, to either find informations or discuss hot topics.
