1. Excerpt from
Prefatory Note by Dr. Gaku Kimura
Session proposal for
JpGU Meeting 2011 started on September 1, 2010.
More session proposals
compared with the previous year for International Symposium
as a subset of JpGU
Meeting 2011 are wanted next year to further internationalize JpGU
Meeting.
32 international sessions
were held at JpGU Meeting 2010, among 167 sessions.
We decided to give
favorable treatment for international sessions, such as increasing the
number of
invited lectures to six
for each session. We also promote putting English description for
normal Japanese sessions,
and increase lunch time
lectures.
JpGU Meeting is the
the only one and the biggest earth and planetary science related meeting
in Japan.
We’re really looking
forward for your vigorous session proposals and participation in JpGU
Meeting 2010.
