27th IUGG Conference on Mathematical Geophysics<br><br>
Dear Colleague,<br><br>
The International Conference on Mathematical Geophysics meets every
two <br>
years, sponsored by the Committee on Mathematical Geophysics (CMG)
of <br>
the International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics (IUGG). The 27th
<br>
international conference in this series will deal with:<br><br>
Dynamics in Earth Systems<br><br>
and will be held June 15-20, 2008 in Longyearbyen on Spitsbergen.
This <br>
year is the international polar year, and at 78.12' north the small
<br>
Norwegian town, Longyearbyen, represents a unique polar location.
In <br>
June the sunlight differs very little from day to night.<br><br>
Register as soon as possible, as the number of hotel rooms in <br>
Spitsbergen is restricted! It is also still possible to apply for
<br>
support.<br><br>
All researchers using quantitative methods to study evolving and
<br>
dynamic Earth systems are invited. Studies that integrate field
<br>
observations, laboratory experiments, and theoretical models are
<br>
especially welcome. Particular focus will be given to quantitative
<br>
methods that offer the possibility of significant progress in our
<br>
understanding of Earth processes. Problems of interest include (but
are <br>
not limited to) fracture, ranging from ice sheets to earthquakes;
<br>
geophysical fluid dynamics, ranging from internal and surficial
flows <br>
to oceanic and atmospheric dynamics; and quantitative aspects of
the <br>
earth's biological, chemical, and climatic evolution.<br><br>
