1st Circular

Dear colleagues,

The final scientific meeting of AlpArray/4D-MB will take place from the 4-6^th of October of this year in Bad Hofgastein in the Austrian Alps, easily accessible by train from Salzburg. Together, we will explore how AlpArray has changed our understanding of mountain-building. It´s time to take stock of the unprecedented view of the deep structure beneath the Alps afforded by the AlpArray project and its complimentary experiments. These new images have resolved some debates on mountain building, while giving rise to others.

We are therefore inviting all members of AlpArray and 4D-MB to submit titles for oral presentations or posters on the following broad themes:

We are also planning special sessions with invited talks and posters on the following special topics:

The meeting will last for three full days and includes lunch and dinners, with meals fully covered for all attendees. Oral presentations will be 10 minutes each, and short (PICO-style) talks will accompany the posters. The poster sessions form the core of the meeting, with two entire afternoons devoted to their presentation and discussion. Invited speakers, including members of the DFG panel, will be on hand to join in. The posters will be available to view throughout the meeting. We remind the PIs of all 4D-MB projects, both 1st and 2nd phases, that they must attend and present a poster plus abstract instead of a final report. The posters will form the basis of the DFG evaluation.
