Spanish-Portuguese Assembly of Geodesy and Geophysics

he 9th Spanish-portuguese Assembly of Geodesy and Geophysics (9 AHPGG) to be held from 28 to 30 June 2016 in Madrid

The Spanish-Portuguese Assembly of Geodesy and Geophysics meets every two years alternatively between the two countries, Spain and Portugal. Throughout the different editions, the assembly has consolidated a forum for research in the fields of Geodesy, Seismology, Meteorology, Geomagnetism, Hydrology, Oceanography, Volcanology, Cryospheric Sciences and Applied Geophysics, and it has given continuity to the scientific exchange between Spanish and Portuguese researchers, with the presentation and discussion of their work in these fields.

Next year, the 9th Spanish-Portuguese Assembly of Geodesy and Geophysics (9 AHPGG) is to be held from 28 to 30 June 2016 in Madrid.

The assembly is organized in 9 sessions. All researchers are invited to participate in the various sessions and discussion forums, especially the Spanish and Portuguese researchers, in order to make known the results obtained in their most recent work. Addressing mainly regional studies for the Iberian Peninsula and surrounding areas, this invitation is extended to the scientific communities of Europe and Maghreb, as well as other foreign researchers who are interested in the topics of the sessions.

SESSIONS:

  • S01 Geodesy
  • S02 Seismology and Inner Earth Physics
  • S03 Geomagnetism and Aeronomy
  • S04 Volcanology S05 Meteorology and Atmospheric Sciences
  • S06 Physic Oceanography
  • S07 Hydrology
  • S08 Applied Geophysics
  • S09 Cryospheric Sciences

PLACE: Madrid, Universidad Complutense de Madrid. Faculties of Physics and Mathematics
DATE: 28-30th of June 2016

Matthew Agius is a recent PhD graduate from the Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies in Ireland and is now doing research at the University of Southampton (National Oceanography Centre). His research focuses on the dynamics of the lithosphere beneath Tibet, the Central Mediterranean, and the Pacific Ocean. Matthew’s role as a young scientist representative is to promote the efforts done by young researchers and to engage in discussions that concern seismology students.
