Dear Colleagues,
we are pleased to announce that the 28th international conference on
Mathematical Geophysics sponsored by the Committee on Mathematical
Geophysics (CMG) of the International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics
(IUGG) will be held in Pisa, Italy, on June 7-11, 2010 and will focus
on:
Modelling Earth Dynamics: Complexity, Uncertainty and Validation
Understanding the evolution of our planet is becoming of increasing
importance. The variable dynamics of the Earth's solid and fluid
components testify to the complexity of non-linear relationships
governing such coupled and multiphase systems. Mathematical models are
a key tool for understanding these relationships, and represent the
only mean for forecasting their evolution. The goal of this meeting is
to present the state-of-the-art modelling capability to represent the
different dynamics of Earth's components. Theoretical models of
solid-earth dynamics, such as earthquake and volcanic processes, and
of atmospheric and oceanic dynamics, including climatic and biological
evolutionary processes, are welcome. The focus will be on the
capability of models to describe the complex evolution of Earth
systems and quantify the sources of uncertainty in their dynamics, as
well as to reproduce direct observations and laboratory experiments of
the investigated processes.
