AGU 16: live stream of the first landslide session on Wednesday<\/h5>\n

This week is AGU 16 – the Fall Meeting of the American Geophysical Union<\/a> in San Francisco.\u00a0 As usual it is an amazing, stimulating and slightly intimidating event.\u00a0 This is science on a grand scale both in terms of the projects themselves and the number of attendees.\u00a0 Last year the meeting attracted almost 24,000 attendees.\u00a0 This year feels just as busy, perhaps more so.<\/p>\n

The main landslide event occurs on Wednesday and Thursday, with two oral sessions on the former and an epic poster session on the latter.\u00a0 The AGU have decided to live stream<\/a> the first of the two landslide sessions.\u00a0 This is at 8 am local time (which is 4 pm in the UK) and runs for two hours.\u00a0 I have the honour of kicking the session off – many thanks to the convenors for the very kind invitation to do this.\u00a0 Below are the details of the session and the list of talks:<\/p>\n

Wednesday, 14 December 2016, 08:00 – 10:00 am<\/strong>
\nMoscone South – 102<\/strong> <\/em><\/p>\n

Primary Convener:<\/strong> Dalia Kirschbaum
\nConveners:<\/strong> Paola Reichenbach and Hiroshi Fukuoka<\/p>\n

09:45: NH31B-08 Considerations about the mechanism and mitigation plan of rainfall-induced landslide after The 2016 Kumamoto Earthquake (Invited)<\/em>. Naoki Sakai.<\/p>\n

There are some excellent topics there, so it promises to be a most-interesting session.\u00a0 You can join it for free by registering for AGU On Demand<\/a>. There isn’t an option to ask questions remotely, but if anyone is interested we could discuss the session using #AGU16 and #NH31B in real time (though you will have to start without me for obvious reasons!<\/p>\n
