ES14B:
Earth Surface Processes Posters

Submit an Abstract to this Session

Session ID#: 6883

Session Description:
The NAP publication "Landscapes on the Edge" illustrates the scope and importance of Earth Surface Processes area of geosciences to past, present and future landscapes of Earth, including the interactions with human activities, and identifies the ‘grand challenges’ for future research and action. These grand challenges provide a focus for the activities of the recently formed Earth Surface Processes Section of the CGU. In this spirit, we invite poster contributions that focus on scientific results and/or their applications to exploring earth surface processes at regional, national and international scales and would be suitable for work that does not fit any approved specialist sessions.  This session is in collaboration with AGU-EPSP and CGRG.
