Subject: General Earthquake Models Fall AGU special session
We'd like to draw your attention to a Fall AGU special session on general
earthquake models.
Session Description:
T-l General Earthquake Models
(Joint with S, G; NG)
General Earthquake Models (GEM) represent an emerging new field of
geophysical research focused on the behavior of fault systems. It is
enabled by the fusion of new ideas about the physics of earthquakes and
complex high-dimensional, multi-scale nonlinear systems; modern
computational hardware, software and algorithms; evolving information
technology, and digital communications infrastructure; and the rapidly
growing quantity and quality of new data types, originating from GPS and
broadband seismic networks, as well as Interferometric SAR. For this
session, papers are solicited that examine problems and scientific
questions related to understanding earthquakes through the synthesis of
models, computation, and data. We anticipate papers that address theory,
results and algorithms for computational models of the earthquake source,
both on isolated faults and fault systems; computational methods based
upon
new paradigms of web object systems and fast computational algorithms; and
model calibration and validation issues that can be resolved through the
innovative use of modern geophysical data.

Abstracts are due into AGU on September 2, or via their web submission on
September 9. The meeting is December 13-17, 1999. The web page can be
found at http://www.agu.org/meetings/fm99top.html.
Regarding invited papers, AGU policy states:
For the 1999 Fall Meeting, a person as first author may submit
one contributed paper and one invited papers approved by a
Program Committee member for inclusion in the program. If a
person accepts an invitation to be the first author on a second
invited paper, this person must forego the first author
contributed paper. Acceptance of any additional papers by the
same first author requires a joint request from a convenor and
Program Committee member to the Chairman of the Fall Program
Committe, Robert Duce, for approval.
Sincerely yours,
Andrea Donnellan
