Conference Announcement

Dear Colleagues,

GSA 2017 SESSION T.199 BASALT WEATHERING ON EARTH AND MARS

We invite you to submit an abstract to our session on “Basalt weathering on Earth and Mars” at this year's GSA Annual Meeting in Seattle, WA on October 22-25, 2017.

This session explores basalt weathering processes and products under various environmental conditions on Earth and Mars. Abstracts are solicited on field studies, laboratory simulations, geochemical modeling, and/or remote sensing observations.

Esteemed colleagues, 
Abstract submission is now open for the 2017 AGU fall meeting. Please consider submitting an abstract to our session, H034: Coupled biogeochemical and hydrological processes in permafrost-affected landscapes. We look forward to seeing you in New Orleans!

H034: Coupled Biogeochemical and Hydrological Processes in Permafrost-Affected Landscapes

The Integrated Land Ecosystem-Atmosphere Processes Study (iLEAPS), a global research project of Future Earth, will hold its 5th Science Conference in Oxford, United Kingdom.

The event which will run from the 11th - 14th September 2017, has the theme 'Understanding the impact of land-atmosphere exchanges.' It is being organised by the Centre for Ecology & Hydrology of the Natural Environment Research Council.

Registration is Now Open for CUAHSI’s 2017 Conference on Hydroinformatics:
Swimming in Data Without Drowning in the Deluge

July 25-27, 2017 || The University of Alabama || Tuscaloosa, AL
Early Bird Registration Deadline: June 15th
Regular Registration Deadline: July 10th

Please consider attending the planning workshop or give your input about future science plans via the survey or by submitting a white paper/abstract.

WORKSHOP APPLICATION DEADLINE: 14 April 2017

Registration is now open for the 2017 (June 25-30) Gordon Research Conference (GRC) held at Bates College in Lewiston, Maine on Catchment Science: Interactions of Hydrology, Biology & Geochemistry. The theme of this GRC is “Crossing Boundaries and Seeking Synthesis in the Catchment Sciences.” A full program is available now at https://www.grc.org/programs.aspx?id=12331. Please check it out and planning on attending!  

CRITICAL ZONE SCIENCE: CURRENT ADVANCES AND FUTURE OPPORTUNITIES
Sunday June 4 - Tuesday June 6, 2017
Hilton Hotel, Arlington, Virginia (near NSF)

The US NSF Critical Zone Observatories Program (CZO) would like you to participate in this meeting.  Together, we will learn about the latest Critical Zone science results from the CZO network and elsewhere, and we will discuss how Critical Zone science can be moved forward into the future.

Call for Abstracts.

Please consider submitting an abstract to the Clays & Soil Formation session at the 54th Annual Clay Minerals Society (CMS) Conference that will be held in Edmonton, Alberta on June 5 – 8th, 2017. Suggested topics include but are not limited to nutrient cycling and weathering processes, biological effects on clay formation, and carbon stabilization in soils.
