During August and September the RGS-IBG is hosting an exhibition celebrating the past 50 years of the BGRG and BSG, and the conference is part of those celebrations.

Paper sessions will run from Tuesday morning to Thursday lunch time. Sessions will be focused on five 50th anniversary challenges, identified at recent BSG meetings:

• simulation and uncertainty;
• providing the baseline records of environmental change;
• processes at the surface of the Earth;
• connectivity in earth surface systems;
• technological advances.

Leading geomorphologists have been invited from around the world to present a range of keynote or benchmark papers. Other events at the 50th Anniversary Meeting will include the Frost, Linton, Warwick and Wiley lectures. The BSG annual awards ceremony and dinner will be held on the Wednesday evening.

Delegates attending the BSG Conference may also attend sessions at the RGS-IBG Annual International Conference for no additional charge.  You can find out more about registration here.
