CALL for IAG GRANTS for the Summer School 2016 organized by the IAG Tectonic Geomorphology Working Group "Alps vs. Apennines: Tectonic Geomorphology of Mountains" Italy: Western Alps – Central Apennines 2-9 July 2016

The International Association of Geomorphologists offers 2 grants of 400 euros to favour the participation of Young Geomorphologists (under 35 years old) worldwide (except Italy) in the Summer School 2016 organized by the IAG Tectonic Geomorphology Working Group "Alps vs Apennines: Tectonic Geomorphology of Mountains". The Summer School is intended for students and early career scientists involved in tectonic geomorphology studies. It aims to offer a comprehensive overview of pioneering techniques, innovative and multidisciplinary approaches for meeting the growing needs of knowledge on both long-term tectonic uplift and sudden geomorphological changes. The Summer School includes lectures (2 days), laboratory and field activities (4 days). A group of experts from different countries will present the state of the art on tectonic geomorphology and related methods. A rich programme of field activities will be developed both in the Western Alps, representative of an orogen long-term evolution, and in central Apennines, where active tectonics caused casualties, damages and sudden geomorphological changes in occasion of the L’Aquila earthquake (2009). For further information on the Summer School, please visit the IAG Tectonic Geomorphology Working Group webpage http://www.geomorph.org/tectonic-geomorphology-working-group/

Applicants (with a special interest in the topic of the Summer School to be proved by their CV) are requested to submit the following files before 10 May 2016*: - Application form (see below) - Short CV (maximum 2 pages long), including up to 10 papers
