The GeoMod2014 conference took place in Potsdam, Germany from 31 August to 5 September, 2014.
Welcome to the GeoMod2014 conference!
What is GeoMod?
GeoMod is a biennial conference dedicated to latest results of analogue and numerical modelling of lithospheric and mantle deformation.
At GeoMod2014 we will focus on rheology and deformation at a wide range of temporal and spatial scales: from earthquakes to long-term deformation, from micro-structures to orogens and subduction systems, as well as volcanotectonics and the interaction between tectonics and surface processes.
The conference will be followed by a 2-day short course on "Constitutive Laws: from Observation to Implementation in Models" (lectures, lab visits and practical exercises), as well as a 1-day hands-on tutorial on the ASPECT numerical modeling software (see here).
When and where?
GeoMod2014 will take place at Helmholtz Centre Potsdam GFZ German Research Centre for Geosciences from 31 August to 3 September 2014.
The short course and tutorial will take place at the same venue from 4-5 September 2014.
