Subject: Geological Society Special Lecture: Of Ice and Land, Sea and Strand: Sea Level During Glacial Cycles, Professor Kurt Lambeck (Wollaston Medallist), The Australian National University, 25 September 2013
Dear Zoe/Richard,
The Geological Society will be hosting a special lecture on 25 September to be given by this year’s Wollaston medallist, Professor Kurt Lambeck of the Australian National University. The event will start with tea at 17:30, his medal presentation/talk will be at 18:00 and will be followed by a wine reception. The evening should finish by around 20:00.
I very much hope that you can make this date, but also wondered if you might be able to display the attached poster and forward the email below to your colleagues and students who may be interested in attending?
The lecture is free to attend, but will be ticketed and anyone who would like to come just needs to pre-register by sending me an email.
Kind regards,
Naomi

Geological Society Special Lecture:
Of Ice and Land, Sea and Strand: Sea Level During Glacial Cycles
[http://media.jbanetwork.com/image/cache/1/3/8/2/2/8/4_w294_h195_s1_PL15_PCffffff.jpg]Date: Wednesday 25 September 2013
Venue: The Geological Society, Burlington House, London
Speaker: Professor Kurt Lambeck (Wollaston Medalist), The Australian National University
One of the classic problems joining many of the geoscience disciplines is the relationship between ice sheets, sea level and the solid Earth during glacial cycles: Geophysical modelling defines the solid Earth’s response to changes in surface loads and hence constrains estimates of mantle rheology; geological observations provides constraints on past ice movements and on the sea level response to the changes in the ice loads; geodetic data provides measures of the recent response to past and present ice changes; glaciology provides the observational evidence and theory for ice movements in a changing climate; and the dynamics of the solar system provides one of the driving forces for the growth and decay of ice sheets. It provides therefore not only a scientific challenge but also insights into the working of the climate system of the planet, and a framework for discussing human migrations and coastal archaeological settings. Here, I will endeavour to give an overview of where this science is at: what have we learnt about past ice sheets from geophysical inversions of geological data; what have we learnt about the mantle’s response to surface loading on time scales of thousands of years; are realistic palaeo reconstructions possible of the coastal zones; and are there lessons that may be relevant to understanding present sea level change.
