Dear All,

one-day conference on 14th November at the GeolSoc - definitely
relevant to geophysics.  Free registration!

Regards,
Sheila Peacock,
list co-owner.


Dear all,

Just a reminder to register for the one day conference at the Geological Society,
London on November 14th on the theme “The coupling between tectonics and surface
processes” (http://www.geolsoc.org.uk/frontiers). The programme is listed below.

Registration is FREE, but you must contact Georgina Worrall at the Geological
Society to register ([log in to unmask]).

As well as being an important research meeting, it should be a good opportunity
for keen 3rd/4th year undergraduate students to see a research conference - please
can you pass this on to such students if appropriate.

Summary Programme (9.30 start):

·Accurate measurement of dynamic topography through space and time

oNicky White, University of Cambridge

·Late Cenozoic fluvial evidence for vertical crustal motion in response to
surface processes

An example from the South China Sea

oAndrew Carter, Birbeck, University of London

·Tectonic and climatic controls on knickpoint retreat rates and landscape response times

oAlexander Whittaker, Imperial College London

·Coupled catchment and sedimentary modeling to evaluate sediment flux propagation
towards the deltaic domain

oAndrea Forzoni, Delft University of Technology

·2DStratSim: an efficient source-to-sink model to calculate sediment volumes and
forcing propagation
