Abstracts are invited for presentation at the, International Workshop on Glacial Isostatic Adjustment and Elastic Deformat ion, to be held September 5-7, 2017, at Grand Hot el Reykjavik, Iceland.
The abstract deadline is extended to F riday June 16, 2017. Abstracts must be submitted following the web site instructions.
List of abstracts received to date is now availabl e: ftp://ftp.spacecenter.dk/pub/abbas/gia2017iceland/abstract_list_dd .pdf
Registrations is open until August 2, 2017.
Theme
Past and present changes in the
mass balance of the Earth's glaciers and ice caps induce present-day defor
mation of the solid Earth on a range of spatial scales, from the very local
to global. Of principal interest are geodetic observations that validate,
or may be assimilated into, models of glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) an
d/or constrain models of present-day ice mass change through measurements o
f elastic rebound. Using geometric measurements alone, elastic and viscoela
stic deformations cannot be separated without additional models or observat
ions. The conference will focus on resolving these issues and work on disse
mination of these measurements within the glaciological community.

Travel support<
/em>
Thanks to generous funding from the SCAR SERCE programme
, The European Space Agency (ESA), and the Technical University of Denmark
(DTU), there are funds available to part-support a limited number of attend
ees. These will be awarded after the abstract submission deadline and prefe
rence will be given to early stage researchers and scientists from a SCAR n
ation with an emerging Antarctic programs, and to participants involved in
ESA projects or using ESA data. All supported attendees must present at the
workshop. Applicants must indicate that they are requesting travel support
at the time of abstract submission.
