Instrumental, Experimental and Laboratory-based Developments in the Geosciences
The notifications to presenting authors confirming their specific date and time of presentation will be communicated the 20 August 2016.
Second Draft Preliminary programme is being updated per theme as the SPC signs them off.
The detailed draft day by day programme for each theme is being announced as it is being collated. These are still preliminary and will be finalised by the 20 August.
As this is the Second draft, please note that where there are abstract presenters not yet registered, these have now been removed from the programme.
Once removed, you will not be included in the abstracts or the programme. If your co-author is presenting, please contact the secretariat urgently to confirm and advise so that your paper can be moved to the correct presenter. Email 35igc@allevents.co.za
if you have any queries or if you have in the interim managed to secure finances and registered.

Instrumental, Experimental and Laboratory-based Developments in the Geosciences
The continued development of Earth Science and its ability to deal with the challenges of observations at nano- and mega-scale requires improvements in analytical and experimental techniques. Any contribution that presents recent advancements in instrumental and laboratory based techniques, and their contribution to the geosciences, is invited for this theme.
Please note that this is preliminary and final allocations in the programme will be announced in the 5th Announcement and updated on the Website in July.
PLEASE NOTE THAT ALL PRESENTING AUTHORS (FOR ORALS) OR AT LEAST ONE AUTHOR (FOR POSTERS) MUST BE REGISTERED FOR THE MEETING BY 31 MAY 2016 IN ORDER TO HAVE THE ABSTRACT INCLUDED IN THE PROGRAMME.
The following symposium proposals have already been submitted:
-
Sergey Cherkasov and Marina Diaz Michelena
» Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV)-based technologies for geology and Earth sciences -
Patric Jacobs, Dominique Bernard, Veerle Cnudde, Pierre Francus and Bernard Long
» Applications of X-ray computed tomography in the Earth Sciences -
Russell Harmon, Alessandro De Giacomo, Anton Du Plessis, Richard E. Russo and Mohamed A. Harith
