About
The IAG’s Regional Conference will take place in Athens. Athens is the capital of Greece with a continuous history of 2,500 yrs. You can easily reach the city using the Athens International Airport, a modern and safe airport which was constructed before the Olympic Games of 2004. The harbor of Piraeus is located a few kilometers away from the city Center of Athens and is connected by ferries with the Greek islands where the conference field trips will take place.

Aims & Topics
Regional Conference on Geomorphology (IAG) are to meet the new challenges for geoscientists and especially geomorphologists to better understand the response of the Earth system, to approach with new techniques and methods, to make new assessments and predictions for the future, and to contribute to society’s adaptation and preparedness. The conference aims to promote interaction and networking with young geoscientists, while its field trips will provide an enticing introduction to the many varied landforms of coastal geomorphology.
Read more The geomorphology of the landscape represents the dynamic between creative and destructive processes. The interaction of these processes forms, modifies, or destroys geomorphic features on the Earth’s surface. Landforms and landscape are the result of uplift and erosion, both of which are moderated by tectonic and climatic boundary conditions. Rivers, hillslopes, coastlines, and other geomorphic features respond to governing variables of force and fluxes of energy and material. Over long periods, features of the landscape may come into dynamic equilibrium with these inputs assuming that the driving variables are stable, with time lags in response to changes in controlling variables. This lag time (reaction time plus relaxation time) is generally a period of instability. The term instability indicates rapid morphological change, increased movement of sediment (erosion, mass wasting, deposition), shifts in vegetative cover or type, accelerated change in hydrologic processes (such as from snow to rain or glacial ice to snow), and/or rates of change that are in excess of what can be sustained in the long-term. Over geologic time, tectonic forces through the time-integrated effects of surface and rock uplift/ subsidence, and crustal deformation produce earth relief. The resulting relief is significantly modified by erosion: a process that is strongly controlled by climate. The form and evolution of a landscape is therefore determined by several fundamental controls, including tectonics, erosion, climate, lithology, and pre-existing geomorphology. Physical systems respond to a disturbance by altering their morphology to accommodate the new driving forces. How a geomorphological system responds to change also depends on the presence of positive or negative feedback processes. A negative feedback process is one that tends to restore the system to its previous state when it is disturbed, while a positive feedback process tends to accelerate the disturbance. Hence, systems with negative feedback tend to be stable, while positive feedback systems are unstable. The sensitivity of the Earth system is defined by the system specifications that describe its propensity for change and its ability to absorb any disturbing forces. Evidences of global climate change/warming includes widespread increases in average air and ocean temperatures, accelerated melting of glaciers, rising sea level, extreme climatic events, hurricanes, flash floods and extreme droughts. Given the increasing certainty that climate change is occurring and is accelerating, we can no longer assume that climate conditions in the future will resemble those in the past. Climate change represents a disturbance to the driving variables. Earth’s atmosphere and ocean systems both raise several questions regarding the potential impacts of such change on water resources, agriculture, and ecosystems, three issues with immense importance to society..

A fundamental contribution of earth scientists is to make convincing predictions about river channel change that are useful to the public and to decision makers. This is particularly important in developing areas of the world, where human impact has not yet radically altered river morphologies, but where development pressures are mounting. It is also critical in the face of climate change, and the probable increase in extreme events. Unnatural channel change contributes to degradation in aquatic habitats, extinction of riverine species, loss of flood-retaining areas etc. The purpose of this session is to communicate recent advances in theory and modelling of how river systems change at all scales and consequently, to identify complex self-organized models of river systems. We welcome studies conducted in a wide range of geographical areas, using a broad range of methodologies.
Please note that this session is organised by a working group of the International Association of Geomorphologists.

Climate change, human activities and other perturbations like, e.g., fires and earthquakes are likely to influence existing patterns of weathering, erosion, transport and deposition of mineral and organic materials (e.g., sediments, solutes, carbon, wood) across defined landscape components and units. The climatically and tectonically sensitive areas of the Mediterranean zone are expected to react particularly sensitive to ongoing and accelerated environmental changes. Our current knowledge on ancient and modern solute and sediment dynamics, and on the sediment cascade within Holocene to contemporary climates forms the basis for predicting the consequences of ongoing and future climate changes. However, much of our information is still limited in terms of spatial and temporal coverage and needs to be extended and consolidated. Denudation includes both chemical and mechanical processes and its spatiotemporal variability is controlled by a wide range of environmental drivers. Only after coordinated research efforts and integration of regional datasets it is advisable to apply and test, with an acceptable degree of reliability, models of landscape response to climate change, anthropogenic impacts and other perturbations. This session invites scientific contributions on drivers and quantitative rates of denudational processes, soil erosion, connectivity and sedimentary budgets from small headwaters to large drainage basin systems, and from long-term to contemporary timescales. Studies with new results on denudation in the Mediterranean zone are welcome. The session shall bring together and discuss a wide range of advanced techniques and methods of data collection and generation, e.g., from field-based mapping, monitoring, fingerprinting and dating techniques to remotely sensed techniques, together with various approaches and methods of data analysis and geomorphological modelling, including extreme phenomena.
The session is organized by the I.A.G./A.I.G. Working Group on Denudation and Environmental Changes in Different Morphoclimatic Zones (DENUCHANGE).

The Mediterranean Basin is characterized by a very specific climate that influences the development of the landforms around it. However, climate change in recent decades has caused major repercussions on the secular development of the Mediterranean landforms. If we include geological conditions for the development of landforms, i.e. lithology, tectonics, volcanism, earthquakes, and other extreme phenomena, then in the Mediterranean areas we have an extremely rich set of landform types, rarely found in other regions of the world. To this is added a centuries-old cultural and economic heritage, especially agricultural heritage, which also contributes in the geomorphological time-scale to changes in the landforms in this zone. So, what is the geodiversity status of the landforms in the Mediterranean regions? What is the heritage of geodiversity of the landforms? How does this landform change? What are the trends of landform changes? Which from geological, morphogenetic, hydrological or climatic conditions is crucial for the assessment of the geodiversity of the Mediterranean zone? These are the questions which we should find answers during this session. This session invites scientific contributions on excellent examples of geodiversity of the northern and southern terrestrial parts of the Mediterranean Sea. The session shall bring together and discuss a wide range of matter, methods and examples of Mediterranean geodiversity. We also invite you to present examples of geodiversity of landforms not only from the Mediterranean area, but also from other areas of the world with similar conditions for the development of landforms.
The session is organized by the IAG/AIG Working Group on Landforms Assessment for Geodiversity.

Karst landforms are mainly the result of geochemical and hydrogeological processes acting on soluble substratum, either carbonates or evaporites. The resulting landscapes are widespread around the globe, covering around 20%of the ice-free land surface, and including numerous properties of outstanding universal value. Understanding the peculiar geomorphology and hydrology of these environments is essential to prevent and mitigate a great deal of environmental and engineering problems associated with them (e.g., sinkholes, water over-exploitation and degradation). Moreover, karst caves contain some of the most valuable paleoenvironmental records of the continental realm. This session aims to bring together researchers working on karst geomorphology and related topics.
Special attention will be given to the following themes: (1) driving agents and scales of karst dissolution; (2) impact of active tectonics on cave architecture; (3) karst deposits and their paleoclimate record; (4) karst in high-solubility evaporite rocks; (5) impact and hazards in karst environments; (6) paleokarst.

Tectonic geomorphology focuses on understanding the mechanisms that drive interactions among Earth surface processes, tectonics and climate in landscape evolution, with implications for the forecasting of future scenarios.
The IAG Tectonic Geomorphology Working Group and the EGU Geomorphology Division co-organize this session to present and promote multi-disciplinary and innovative research aimed at defining the effects of active tectonics on landscapes.
Over the past decades, advances in the quantification of both the physical behavior and the rates of tectonic and surface processes have led to an explosion of new research in the field of Tectonic Geomorphology. Understanding the mechanisms that drive the interactions between Earth’s internal and surface processes, as well as their mutual feedback relationships, is a key topic for a wide scientific community. Modern Tectonic Geomorphology is an exceptionally integrative field that utilizes techniques and data derived from multidisciplinary approaches involving geomorphology, seismology, sedimentology, geochronology, structural and engineering geology, climatology and Quaternary geology.
Read more Given the recent development of new tools and methodologies (e.g., quantitative and object-based geomorphology, geodesy, improved chronological techniques, numerical modeling, quantitative stratigraphy), this session aims at presenting and promoting multidisciplinary and innovative studies in Tectonic Geomorphology in various geodynamic contexts. Contributions focusing on distinctive space and time scales are welcome. Regional- to basin-scale studies deciphering the long-term geomorphological evolution related to mantle and deep crustal activity, as well as basin- to slope-scale research decoding short-term to catastrophic morpho-evolutionary contexts are strongly encouraged. Importance will also be given to advanced and original studies including: the mapping and use of geomorphic markers for tracing deformation; chronological techniques used to date geomorphic markers and events; development of geostatistical and geomorphic tools to detect active tectonic structures; calibration and integration of quantitative methods to estimate uplift, erosion and deposition rates; geodetic techniques for defining recent deformation; landscape evolution modeling; analysis of the effects of morpho-evolutionary rates on large slope instabilities; paleoseismologic approaches to calibrate past deformation.

Field Trips
All the field trip destinations are to islands that in September 2019 are normally in high season. Although, there is no limit for the number of participants in the field trips, the participation fee depends on the accommodation cost and availability. The organizing committee strongly recommends an early registration for the field trip participants. Field trip registrations will close with the end of accommodation availability. Prior action for Field Trip Registration is the Conference Registration.
Pre-Conference Field Trips
Santorini Island, Cyclades, Aegean Sea
Duration: 4 Days – 3 Nights
Thira (Santorini) Island is located in the center of the Aegean Sea. The geomorphology of the island is highly related with the presence of an active volcano. The great volcanic eruption in the late Bronze Age (ca.1600 BC) destroyed the Cycladic Civilization and buried the ancient settlement of Akrotiri under 30 meters of volcanic ash. The participants will be introduced on the geomorphological and coastal evolution of the island and visit the Caldera, the active volcano and the archaeological site of Santorini.
Conveners: Vouvalidis Konstantinos vouval@geo.auth.gr
Nomikou Paraskevi evinom@geol.uoa.gr
Pavlides Spyridon pavlides@geo.auth.gr
Mykonos & Delos Islands, Cyclades, Aegean Sea.
Duration: 4 Days – 3 Nights
Mykonos and Delos Islands are located to the north part of Cyclades.The islands have a rich coastal archaeo-geomorphology with evidence of relative sea level changes along with archaeological sites.The participants will be introduced on the geomorphological and coastal evolution of the islands.
Conveners: Kapsimalis Vasilios kapsim@hcmr.gr
Desruelles Stéphane stephane.desruelles@sorbonne-universite.fr
Post-Conference Field Trip
Rhodes Island, Aegean Sea. In the memory of Paolo Pirazzoli
Duration: 4 Days – 3 Nights
Rhodes Island is located in the southeast part of the Aegean Sea. The Island is rich in geomorphological sea level indicators, mainly in the form of uplifted tidal notches, which reveal that Rhodes is composed of small crustal blocks with each block being affected by a particular tectonic history. The participants will be introduced on the coastal geomorphological coastal evolution of the island, controlled by tectonics, and its paleo-seismicity history.
