The biannual Emile Argand Conference on Alpine Geological Studies is organized by European universities, with the support of the European Geosciences Union. The main purpose of this meeting is to organize oral and poster presentations, favouring exchanges between all members of the Earth Sciences community. All aspects relevant to the past history and present dynamics of the Alpine belt are covered by the meeting. In addition field excursions are organized before and after the meeting. Therefore this meeting is a […]

There are several session interesting for active tectonics research, for example: 1.1. ​How to construct and destruct a mountain range?  1.5. ​Geomorphic and sedimentary records of active plate tectonics  1.8. ​Earth Surface Processes and Landforms: archives of climate-tectonic interactions in active mountain belts.  4.8. ​The challenge of Seismic Hazard and Risk Evaluation

There are several sessions that are of interest to the paleoseismology community, and session 7.11 is especially devoted to past earthquakes

On the occasion of the 250th birthday of Alexander von Humboldt and the 100th anniversary of the Universität Hamburg this year, the 25th Latin-American Colloquium of Geoscience will be held at the Universität Hamburg, Germany, from September 18 – 21, 2019. This biennial conference series has advanced as an important international venue to showcase research activity in Latin-American countries supported by the German Science Foundation, the German Academic Exchange Service, the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation, Germany’s Federal Ministry of Science […]

The Annual Conference of the Deutsche Geologische Gesellschaft – Geologische Vereinigung (DGGV – The German Geological Society) and the Deutsche Mineralogische Gesellschaft (DMG – The German Mineralogical Society) will be held 22–25 September 2019 at the Münster University, Germany.

The INQUA Focus Group on Earthquake Geology and Seismic Hazards (EGSHaz) will run the International Summer School on Active Tectonics and Tectonic Geomorphology in Prague from 24-27 September, 2019. This event replaces the PATA Days this year and aims mainly at MSc./PhD students and Early Career Researchers. Please note that this is not a classical PATA Days event where new science will be shown and discussed. The summer school is organized by the Institute of Rock Structure and Mechanics, Czech […]

the Earth and Environmental Sciences PhD Program of the University of Pavia, in collaboration with the Institute of Geosciences and Earth Resources (National Research Council of Italy), the Italian Group of Petrology and the Italian Society of Mineralogy and Petrology, is pleased to announce the International School entitled "Structure and Composition of the Lower Continental Crust". The School will be held on October 7-10, 2019 in the historical Palazzo Vistarino (https://www.palazzovistarino.it/eng/), Pavia (Italy). The major purpose of the School is […]

We would like to invite you to the international meeting organized by Active Tectonics Research Group (ATAG) of Turkey in commemoration of 20th Anniversary of 1999 Marmara Earthquakes. Following these two devastating earthquakes (1999 Mw 7.4 İzmit and 1999 Mw 7.2 Düzce Earthquakes), a vast number of international/national projects carried out in the Marmara Sea region of Turkey and the outcomes of research done contributed significantly to multi-disciplinary studies in active tectonics. The meeting aims to revisit the results of […]

The aim of this workshop is bringing together international research teams focused on this key sector of the Western Mediterranean to strengthen their scientific collaboration through the development of new research projects related to the geological history, active tectonics and geological hazards in the Alboran basin and surrounding mountain ranges. The workshop is designed to promote multidisciplinary international exchange between scientific teams from the North and South of the Mediterranean, including geological, geophysical and geodetical field and offshore studies.
