Dear all, Just a final reminder that the Tectonics Study Group meeting will be co-hosted by University College London and Birkbeck University between the 6th –8th of January 2016. https://tsg2016.wordpress.com/ We have three exciting invited speakers: * Prof. Claudia Trepmann (Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich) * Long-term dissolution-precipitation creep at low stresses and transient high- stress crystal plasticity of quartz in the subduction zone * Prof. Dan McKenzie (Cambridge University) * The deep structures of continents * Prof. Tom Rockwell (San Diego State University) * Is the Southern San Andreas Fault Really Overdue For a Large Earthquake or Just Late in the Cycle? While the deadline has passed for abstract submissions, there are a limited number of places available if you wish to register to attend the conference @ https://www.geolsoc.org.uk/Tectonic-Studies-Group-Annual-Meeting-2016 and closes when full. Note, there is also an option for day attendance only. The full conference program can be found here: https://tsg2016.files.wordpress.com/2015/12/conference_programme_final1.pdf The conference will cover field, experimental and theoretical studies with a specific focus towards the following themes : * Geodesy and structural geology * Palaeoseismology and earthquake geology * Fractures and fluid flow * Fault rocks and the brittle-ductile transition * Regional tectonics Best regards, The convenors, Tom Mitchell - [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> Gerald Roberts - [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> Penelope Wilson - [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> ____________________________ Dr. Tom Mitchell Rock & Ice Physics Laboratory and UCL SeismoLab Department of Earth Sciences University College London Room 225, Pearson Building Gower Street London WC1E 6BT UK Office: +44 (0)20 7679 7361 Fax: +44 (0)20 7679 2433 Skype: tomatronmiggaz Email: [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> Personal Website: http://www.tommmitchell.com/ SeismoLab Website: http://www.ucl.ac.uk/seismolab Google Scholar: http://scholar.google.com/citations?user=_ZVyA_gAAAAJ&hl=en&oi=sra
