Dear all,
Usually I'm taking announcements from Geo-Tectonics and re-posting
them on Geophysics, but today it's the other way round. This is
the British Geophysical Association's annual New Advances in
Geophysics meeting, and I am re-posting the announcement made
by Barry Parsons.
Sheila Peacock,
Geophysics list co-owner.
