Subject: [SLR-Mail] No.2028: EGU 2012 - Session 5.1: Earth Rotation - Call for papers From: Florian Seitz ******************************************************************************** SLR Electronic Mail 2011-12-01 08:07:33 UTC Message No. 2028 ******************************************************************************** Dear Colleagues, the next General Assembly of the European Geosciences Union (EGU) will be taking place in Vienna, Austria, from April 22-27, 2012. We would like to draw your attention to Session 5.1 ”OBSERVING AND UNDERSTANDING EARTH ROTATION VARIABILITY AND ITS GEOPHYSICAL EXCITATION” and call for contributions. In particular we seek contributions to this session that are related to the following topics: - new instruments and methods for the determination of EOP series and their analyses - combinations of different observing techniques - dynamical link between Earth rotation, geophysical fluids, and other geodetic quantities, such as the Earth gravity field or surface deformation - development of inverse methods for the determination of Earth system quantities from observations of Earth rotation - relationship between EOP variability and current or potential variability in fluids due to climate variation or global change - forecasts of EOP and the related geophysical excitations - characteristics and variability of the rotation parameters of other planets or planetary bodies More information on this session as well as on details concerning abstract submission and possibilities for financial support of young scientists can be found on the following web site: http://meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU2012/session/9710 We are looking forward to welcoming you in Vienna! With best regards, Florian Seitz - Convener Aleksander Brzezinski and David Salstein - Co-Conveners ********************************************************************************
