| Subject: | [SLR-Mail] No.2555: IAG Symposium on the Dynamic Earth at IUGG | |
| Author: | unknown | |
| Content: | Dear Colleagues -
As part of the 27th General Assembly of the IUGG that will be held in Montreal, Canada during 08-18 July 2019 there will be an IAG Symposium on ”Monitoring and Understanding the Dynamic Earth with Geodetic Observations”. The description of the Symposium is given below. In addition to sessions addressing the topic of the Symposium, there will also be specialized sessions on the Global Geodetic Observing System and its Bureau of Products and Standards, Bureau of Networks and Observations, and its Focus Areas on Unified Height System, Geohazards, and Geodetic Space Weather Research. On behalf of the conveners I would like to draw your attention to this Symposium and its specialized sessions and encourage you to participate in it and submit abstracts to either the Symposium in general or to its specialized sessions. Please note that abstracts must be submitted to IUGG by February 18, 2019. More information about the 27th General Assembly of the IUGG can be obtained from its web site at Hope to see you in Montreal! Best regards, Richard .......................................................... IAG Symposium G06: Monitoring and Understanding the Dynamic Earth with Geodetic Observations Geodetic observations of the Earths shape, rotation, and gravity show that these Earth properties change on a wide range of timescales reflecting the processes affecting them, from external tidal forces to surficial processes involving the atmosphere, oceans, and hydrosphere to internal processes acting both at the core-mantle boundary as well as within the solid Earth itself. Measurements of the Earth´s shape, rotation, and gravity can therefore be used to gain greater understanding of mass transport within the entire Earth system. Geodetic observations provide the basis on which future advances in the geosciences can be built. By considering the Earth system as a whole (including the geosphere, hydrosphere, cryosphere, atmosphere and biosphere), monitoring Earth system components and their interactions by geodetic techniques and studying them from the geodetic point of view, the geodetic community provides the global geosciences community with a powerful tool consisting mainly of high-quality services, standards and references, and theoretical and observational innovations. Earth observations are needed not only for scientific research but also for societal applications such as disaster prevention and mitigation, managing resources like energy, water, and food, mitigating the effects of climate change, and protecting the biosphere, the environment, and human health. Geodetic observations provide the metrological foundation for observations of the Earth system. Geodetic observations are a cornerstone of the Earth observing systems needed for scientific research and societal applications. This Symposium will highlight the importance of geodetic observations to monitoring and understanding the dynamic Earth system for the benefit of science and society.
