Dear colleagues, the 4th International INQUA meeting on Paleoseismology, Active Tectonics and Archeoseismology (PATA days) will take place from 9 - 15 October, 2013 in Aachen, Germany. The last three meetings in Spain (2009), Greece (2011), and Mexico (2012) brought together more than 250 international scientists from earthquake geology and all neighbouring disciplines. During the Aachen 2013 meeting we will deepen international international collaboration, we will discuss the road map of our discipline and we will throw the points of future initiatives. We invite you to register and submit extended abstracts to the following sessions: - Paleoseismology - Archeoseismology and Earthquake Archeological Effects (EAE) - Tsunamis and Paleotsunamis - Earthquake Triggered Mass Movements - Earthquakes, Earthquake Environmental Effects and Cascading Effects - Society, Communication, Critical Facilities and Seismic Hazard Assessment - Special session on Slow Active Faults Thematic excursions will be held at the first and last days of the meeting.
