Reminder about visa requirements for JKASP2011, Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, Russia, August 25-30, 2011
From: John C Eichelberger <jeichelberger@xxxxxxxx>
************************************************************************************************
Those wishing to attend the seventh biennial Japan-Kamchatka-Alaska Subduction Processes Workshop are reminded that the deadline for requesting an official letter of invitation is May 1. This letter is required as part of the application for a Russian visa. The website:
http://www.kscnet.ru/ivs/slsecret/jkasp_2011/index_eng.htm
provides a form that should be filled out and submitted to the Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (IVS) so that IVS can generate the invitation letter for you. Please submit this form to IVS by May 1 even if you are not now certain of whether you can attend, so as to keep the possibility of attendance open.
JKASP2011 provides an exceptional opportunity to see famously active volcanoes and discuss earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanism, and tectonics of the Kamchatka Peninsula and neighboring regions. It brings together the northern Pacific geohazards community, as well as other scientists with an interest in subduction processes globally. We emphasize interdisciplinary discussions (no parallel sessions) and involvement of students.
The meeting is sponsored by the IVS, Hokkaido University, and the US Geological Survey.
