Workshop on hydrological and other local effects in gravity measurements

The AG subgroup in working group WG1 of the COST ES0701 Action “Improved Constraints on Models of Glacial Isostatic Adjustment» organizes a workshop on local gravity effects at the Royal Observatory of Belgium in Brussels, March 16–17, 2009. Click here for more information.

Upcoming Conference: G8 (AGU)

Recent Advances in Observation and Modelling of Glacial Isostatic Adjustment (GIA)

December 2008,San Francisco

Glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) has recently received renewed attention since associated mass transportation is seen as a contaminating signal in Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) estimates of ice sheet mass balance.

Upcoming Conference: CL42 (EGU)

Global and regional sea level rise and variability

Vienna,Austria,19 - 24 April 2009

Research into sea level rise spans many areas of science (oceanography, glaciology, hydrology, climate change, geophysics etc.). Sea level is an integrated quantity of a number of global processes and is also of considerable practical relevance to coastal populations and infrastructure.
