************************************************************************************************************************** SSA Announcement: Deadline for Session Proposals is 1 October 2011 - 2012 SSA Annual Meeting From: Katie Kadas <katie@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> ************************************************************************************************************************** The Seismological Society of America is now accepting session proposals for the 2012 SSA meeting in San Diego, California, 17-19 April 2012. The 2012 SSA Annual Meeting will focus on seismotectonics and hazards in continental margins with regional emphasis on Plate boundary processes. Topics of interest may include recent large earthquakes, tsunamigenic earthquakes, earthquake forecasting, the stress state of plate boundary zones, large scale lithospheric structure from active and passive source experiments, new results of the Earth’s deep interior, ocean bottom seismology, geodetic models for earthquake genesis and glacial rebound, physics of seismic sources, paleoseismicity studies, urban earthquake hazards, issues related to siting nuclear or other critical facilities, and emergency management issues associated with large earthquakes. Sessions are encouraged from across the broad fields of earthquake science, geotechnical and earthquake engineering, and seismology; topics may include (but are not limited to) wave propagation, Earth structure, explosion monitoring, controlled source experiments, earthquake and other seismic-source processes, ground motion, paleoseismology, and hazard analysis. The 2012 SSA Annual Meeting Program Committee is strongly encouraging the seismological community at large to help make this an extraordinary SSA meeting by organizing sessions related to these topics or to other cutting-edge research, methodology, and technology developments in seismology. With the meeting’s proximity to the US-Mexican border, sessions that involve cross-border interaction and collaboration are especially encouraged. The deadline for session proposals is 1 October 2011.
