SESSIONS
S1. Past climate change and geological and geomorphological hazards
S2. Feedback effects and climate modification
S3. Short time-scale drivers of geological and geomorphological hazards

For participants giving presentations, ECGS will cover accomodation costs as well as the meals. A limited number of travel grants is also available (number depends on budgetary constraints). As the JLG meetings are traditionally intended to be interdisciplinary, we explicitely welcome contributions from different fields. So far, two special sessions are also intended:
Special session I: Deep structure of the Upper Rhine Graben Special session II: Earthquake ground motions & seismic hazard - from source dynamics to site amplification
For further information, please consult the webpage. If you are interested in attending the meeting and giving a presentation, please register by sending an email to Mrs. Corine Galassi (corine.galassi@ecgs.lu) or Adrien Oth (adrien.oth@ecgs.lu) and send us your abstract at the latest by August 31, 2009.
