WELCOME
Beyond 100: The next century in Earth and Space Science

The 27th IUGG General Assembly will be held July 8-18, 2019 at the Palais des Congrès in Montréal, Québec, Canada. This is a special opportunity for participants from Canada and from around the world to come together and share their science and culture. 2019 marks the 100th anniversary of IUGG; we will look back on the accomplishments of the previous century of Earth and space science research, and forward to the next century of scientific advancement. Join us for a host of scientific activities, including special public lectures, keynote Union lectures and a wide variety of themed sessions.

During your stay, you will have the opportunity to explore the city of Montréal, widely renowned across North America and around the world for its vibrant cultural, social and culinary scene. July is a particularly good time to profit from warm weather, outdoor dining and the many festivals taking place across the city.

In conjunction with the IUGG General Assembly, a number of scientific workshops and cultural events are planned. We will also be offering the chance to explore the geological treasures of our region through a number of field trips ranging from half-day to multi-day excursions.

On behalf of the Local Organising Committee of IUGG2019, I welcome you to Montréal.

Fiona Darbyshire
Chair, Local Organising Committee, IUGG2019

La 27e Assemblée générale de l’UGGI aura lieu du 8 au 18 juillet 2019, au Palais des Congrès de Montréal, dans la province de Québec, au Canada. Cette assemblée fournira l’occasion aux participants nationaux et internationaux de partager leur science et leur culture. Nous soulignerons le 100e anniversaire de l’UGGI, mettant en perspective la recherche liée aux sciences de la Terre et de l’espace en revoyant les réalisations du siècle dernier et en rêvant celles du prochain. Joignez-vous à nous pour plusieurs activités scientifiques incluant des présentations destinées au public, des conférenciers invités de qualité et surtout, une grande variété de sessions sur des thèmes pertinents.

Pendant votre séjour, vous aurez l’occasion d’explorer la ville de Montréal, bien connue en Amérique du Nord et au niveau mondial pour sa culture, sa société ouverte et ses talents culinaires. En juillet, vous profiterez du beau temps et des nombreux festivals qui se déroulent dans la ville.

Conjointement avec l’Assemblée générale, nous offrirons des ateliers scientifiques et évènements culturels. Vous aurez notamment l’opportunité d’explorer les trésors géologiques de notre région par des excursions sur le terrain, de durée variable allant de quelques heures à plusieurs jours.

De la part du comité organisateur local, je vous souhaite la bienvenue à Montréal.

ABSTRACT SUBMISSION ADMINISTRATIVE FEE
• An administrative fee of 35 € will be required per each abstract submission.
