24th Alpine Glaciology Meeting in virtual Milan
Deadline Extended
Since the Alpine Glaciology Meeting had to be cancelled due to pandemic reasons in 2020, we now joined forces to organise a virtual AGM 2021 by Italy and Germany.
The AGM 2021 will be fully virtual, because the situation at the moment does not allow us to plan on a physical gathering, neither South nor North of the Alps. Therefore, we would like to invite all interested people in joining us for two days of scientific exchange on
25 and 26 March 2021
The meeting aims on presenting and discussing recent advances in the investigation of mountain glaciers in their environment, no matter in which region of the world. Young scientists and students are encouraged to present their work in a very informal and friendly atmosphere. But also the older generation is highly welcome to contribute with their findings to a successful meeting. We maintain the usual structure of oral sessions, but posters are also welcome within a special "virtual poster room". The oral presentations are expected to take 15 Minutes followed by 5 Minutes of questions and discussion. For the posters, a short five-minute presentation is planned with a follow-up discussion.
We still have some slots for presentations and posters, but in order to allow us to produce a meeting schedule in a timely manner, we ask you to please send your abstracts by no later than
9 March 2021
to the following email: agm24.2021@gmail.com
or by registering on the websitehttps://sites.unimi.it/glaciol/index.php/en/events/agm-2021/
The final program will be circulated around the 12th of March, including the information about meeting access and poster room. If there are any questions or suggestions, please do not hesitate to contact the organisation committee:
Guglielmina Diolaiuti and Davide Fugazza from the Università degli Studi di Milano, Italy
Valter Maggi from Università di Milano Bicocca, Italy
Massimo Frezzotti from the Italian Glaciological Committee, Italy
