Dr Stefan Vollgger from Monash University, Australia will give a 1-day workshop on the principles of Structure-from-Motion and how to use this technique to aid 3D visualisation and interpretation of field data. This 1-day workshop is designed for all structural geologists that are interested in generating digital outcrop models using Structure-from-Motion Multiview Stereo (SfM MVS). In this workshop attendees will learn a “best practice digital photogrammetry workflow” including image acquisition (choice of camera/lens, camera settings, image overlap, survey layout), the […]

Yorsget is a conference aimed primarily at MSc/PhD students, post-docs, and early career researchers in the broad field of structural geology and tectonics. The conference provides a platform for networking and research presentations in a supportive and inspiring atmosphere. The conference consists of keynotes, regular talks, poster presentations, and field trips. The location of Yorsget 2018 in Montgenevre, France, has been selected due to its proximity to some world-famous examples of structural geology and tectonics, from outcrop to regional scale. […]

GeoBonn 2018 – the Annual Conference of the Deutsche Geologische Gesellschaft – Geologische Vereinigung (DGGV – The German Geological Society), the Deutsche Mineralogische Gesellschaft (DMG – The German Mineralogical Society), the Paläontologische Gesellschaft (PalGes) together with Dachverband Geowissenschaften (DVGeo) to be held 2–6 September 2018 at the Rheinische Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität Bonn, Germany.

CBGA 2018 is aimed bring together geoscientists from southeastern Europe with geoscientists from all over the world to one meeting covering all disciplines of the Earth sciences. CBGA 2018 aims to provide a forum where scientists, especially early career researchers, can present and discuss their recent research work and ideas with experts in all fields of geosciences. CBGA 2018 is to be held 10–13 September 2018 at the Paris-Lodron-University of Salzburg, Austria. GT1       Earth System Sciences GT2       Stratigraphy, Palaeontology and […]

The work of Barry Parsons (Professor of Geodesy and Geophysics, Department of Earth Sciences, University of Oxford) has centred upon the applications of geodesy and geodynamics to understanding the thermal and mechanical behaviour of the earth, earthquakes and tectonics. Over the course of his career, Barry has been behind scientific advances in at least three areas: marine geophysics, mantle convection and continental tectonics, and his observations, physical models, and insights have been used by researchers all over the world. To […]
