11 November 2005 Dear Colleagues [Apologies for cross-posting]:
The European Geosciences Union (EGU) will hold its Second General Assembly from 2-7 April 2006 in Vienna, Austria.We invite you to participate in the session *NH8.02 Spatial and temporal patterns of wildfires: models, theory, and reality*. /Session/: NH8.02 Spatial and temporal patterns of wildfires: models, theory, and reality /Conveners/: James Millington; Carlo Ricotta; Bruce D. Malamud /Session description/: Wildfires are the result of a large variety and number of interacting components. The resulting patterns of wildfires vary significantly both spatially and temporally. This session will examine models, theory and reality, in wildfire research. We encourage submissions in any one or combination of these three main areas, and envision bringing together wildfire hazard managers, applied researchers, and theoreticians. Posters are also very much encouraged, as we plan to have both lively oral and poster sessions. /ABSTRACT DEADLINE/: 13 January 2005 (9 December for financial applications) /Web site for submission/: http://meetings.copernicus.org/egu2006/ Please note that the deadline for abstract submission is 13 January 2006 (one week earlier than last year) AND 9 December 2005 for financial applications (THIS IS ONE MONTH EARLIER THAN LAST YEAR--PLEASE MAKE SURE YOUR APPLICATIONS ARE IN!!), and for pre-registration is 10 March 2006. We look forward to seeing you in Vienna. Please forward this message also to your colleagues. With best regards, Co-conveners, James Millington (1); Carlo Ricotta (2); Bruce D.
