Program Overview

Travel Information

Compared to a year ago, when the Fires, Floods and Faults - II Conference was convened, we find ourselves in a world that is significantly different. To say that "the world has changed" is an understatement. This is indeed the appropriate time to critically evaluate the changes that are occurring around us, reflect upon our modus operandi thus far, and chart new courses that will build upon the solid foundations we have laid so far. Fires, Floods, and Faults - III is intended to provide this opportunity. The invited speakers have been carefully selected to provide us with the necessary food for thought that we can take back with us. The training workshops are designed to provide practical skills that can be utilized. The ultimate success of this conference can be measure only in terms of your participation (not just attendance) in the proceedings of the day.
