1st Announcement: FAIRPLAY workshop

     

    The Fluvial Aeolian InteRactions on PLAnetarY surfaces workshop (FAIRPLAY) aims to promote synergy between different scientific communities that are directly or indirectly involved in the research of aeolian-fluvial interactions on planetary surfaces. 

    This workshop is organised by the Working group on Aeolian-Fluvial Terrain Interactions (WAFTI), recently established at the European Space Agency (ESA). The workshop will be a hybrid event with space for 100 in-person attendees. Registration and abstract submission will be free of charge.

     

    The workshop focusses on aeolian-fluvial interactions on Earth, Mars and Titan, in the following subject areas:

    • The influence of aeolian transport on fluvial morphodynamics and vice versa
    • Sediment transport, sediment budgets and bedform dynamics
    • Sedimentology 
    • Coupling between atmospheric and surface processes 
    • Remote sensing and in situ measurements 
    • Planetary analogues
    • Implication for past or present habitable environments on other planets
    • The potential for future exploration and investigation of planetary surfaces

    We accept research on all spatial and temporal scales.
