Melbourne is the capital of the State of Victoria, the most geographically diverse state in Australia; home to a dynamic scientifi c research community among nine Universities. With a population of approximately four million people, Melbourne is one of the most cosmopolitan and multicultural cities in the world with 140 nationalities representing 100 religious faiths and 180 different languages. While you are in Melbourne for the IUGG General Assembly, please explore the city’s range of delights. There is something for everyone with diverse arts and cultural attractions, exciting entertainment options and a vibrant food and wine culture. I encourage you to also take the time to enjoy the delights of regional Victoria; from sweeping coastlines and pristine beaches to national parks and forests teeming with wildlife to wineries, lakes and mountains offering skiing, climbing and hiking. Many of Victoria’s unique and varied landscapes are easily accessible as day trips from Melbourne. I wish you all the best for a productive meeting here in Melbourne and hope that this important and topical gathering provides a platform for the exchange of ideas and an opportunity to forge new partnerships and friendships. Welcome to Melbourne, enjoy the Assembly, and please come back and visit us again. THE HON LOUISE ASHER MP Minister for Innovation, Services and Small Business Minister for Tourism and Major Events WELCOME MESSAGES MESSAGE FROM THE IUGG PRESIDENT – TOM BEER The International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics (IUGG) is the international organization dedicated to advancing, promoting, and communicating knowledge of the Earth system, its space environment, and the dynamical processes causing change. Its work is carried out by eight international scientifi c associations (IACS, IAG, IAGA, IAHS, IAMAS, IAPSO, IASPEI, IAVCEI) that constitute the Union. IUGG undertakes research, assembles observations, gains insights, coordinates activities, liaises with other scientifi c bodies, plays an advocacy role, contributes to education, and works to expand capabilities and participation worldwide. Data, information, and knowledge gained are made openly available for the benefi t of society – to provide the information necessary for the discovery and responsible use of natural resources, sustainable management of the environment, reducing the impact of natural hazards, and to satisfy our curiosity about the Earth’s natural environment and the consequences of human activities. Since 1919 the membership of IUGG has been based on national membership. Every four years the members meet at the General Assembly, which consists of a scientifi c conference plus business meetings of the IUGG Council, the Executive Committee and Bureau meetings (as well as the business meetings of the IUGG Associations, Union and Associations commissions, committees, and working groups). The highlights of IUGG General Assemblies are the Union Lectures. This year I have invited nine of the world’s leading geo-scientists to present these. Three of these Lectures have become eponymous lectures as memorials to Association Presidents with strong Australian connections who passed away in this past quadrennium. Details of all of the Union Lectures are given later in this Program Book. I urge you to attend them. Given the recent spate of natural disasters, including the tragic loss of life from the Japanese tsunami, it is appropriate that the theme for this General Assembly is “Earth on the Edge: Science for a Sustainable Planet”. Our planet consists of two hemispheres, the Northern and the Southern. This is the fi rst time that the IUGG General Assembly has been held in Melbourne, the second time it has been held in the Southern Hemisphere, and only the third time that it has been held outside of Europe and North America.

  • Weather and Snow Observations for Avalanche Forcasting: an Evaluation of Errors in Measurement and Interpretation
    143 WEATHER AND SNOW OBSERVATIONS FOR AVALANCHE FORCASTING: AN EVALUATION OF ERRORS IN MEASUREMENT AND INTERPRETATION R.T. Marriottl and M.B. Moorel Abstract.--Measurements of weather and snow parameters for snow stability forecasting may frequently contain false or misleading information. Such error~ can be attributed primarily to poor selection of the measuring sites and to inconsistent response of the sensors to changing weather conditions. These problems are examined in detail and some remedies are suggested. INTRODUCTION SOURCES OF ERROR A basic premise of snow stability analysis for Errors which arise in instrumented snow and avalanche forecasting is that point measurements of weather measurements can be broken into two, if snow and weather parameters can be used to infer the somewhat overlapping, parts: those associated with snow and weather conditions over a large area. Due the representativeness of the site where the to the complexity of this process in the mountain measurements are to be taken, and those associated environment, this "extrapolation" of data has with the response of the instrument to its largely been accomplished subjectively by an environment. individual experienced with the area in question. This experience was usually gained by visiting the The first source of error is associated with areas of concern, during many differing types of the site chosen for measurements. The topography of conditions, allowing a qualitative correlation mountains results in dramatic variations in between the measured point data and variations in conditions over short distances and often times the snow and weather conditions over the area. these variations are not easily predictable. For example, temperature, which may often be In many instances today, the forecast area has extrapolated to other elevations using approximate expanded, largely due to increased putlic use of lapse rates, may on some occasions be complicated by avalanche-prone terrain (e.g.
