International Conference on Periglacial Geomorphology
Shifting lands : new insights into periglacial geomorphology

After almost a century of research, periglacial geomorphology is not a static discipline at all: renewal of its research matter is permanent and better understanding of cold areas dynamics increases steadily. The Conference will discuss recent advances in the geomorphology of periglacial areas; it will cover the following topics:

• Periglacial dynamics
• Weathering in cold areas
• Paraglacial landscapes

Five guests have already accepted to deliver "state-of-the-art" lectures on the defined topics:
Prof. Hugh FRENCH, University of Ottawa
Prof. Kevin HALL, University of Northern British Columbia
Prof. Colin BALLANTYNE, University of St Andrews
Prof. Colin THORN, University of Illinois
Prof. John DIXON, University of Arkansas

Theme 2 is part of the planned European Science Foundation Network SEDIFLUX activity.

Important dates:
1st october 2003 : deadline for declaration of intention
1st january 2004 : deadline for submitting abstract
