XXV IUGG General Assembly: Call for Abstracts and Registration Open

With the XXV IUGG General Assembly (GA) in Melbourne less than a year away, preparations are now moving quickly. Registration is open at http://www.iugg2011.com/rego.asp. Abstracts can now be submitted online .

The GA's Scientific Program includes three categories of symposia and a number of workshops on a wide range of geophysical themes.

●“Union Symposia” cover a wide range of themes of concern to the eight Associations. Invited speakers feature in these Symposia, supported by poster presentations submitted. Several of the Union Symposia are expanded or followed in greater depth in Joint Symposia or in Association Symposia;

●“Lead (Inter-Associations) Symposia” with keynote speakers and scientists whose oral and poster presentations are accepted by the session convenors. The themes have been devised by at least two Associations, one of which is the lead Association. Some Joint Symposia are further developed separately in Association Symposia and Workshops.

●“Association Symposia” with keynote speakers and scientists whose oral and poster presentations are accepted by the session convenors.

The Scientific Program and other important information are available on the GA's web site . Please bookmark the site and visit it regularly.
