Join us in Portland |
 "The local geoscience community has thought hard about what to feature of our rich, dynamic landscape and city. … we have developed dozens of field trips covering nearly all the Northwest, from coastal jaunts to fossil beds, live volcanoes to fishing holes, and geology via mass transit to river floats. Let’s not forget the practical side of geology and soils — our field trips cover both the Walla Walla and the Willamette Valley wine appellations."

 “Presentation, discussion, and publication of pure geoscience research will remain GSA’s strong and compelling focus for the 2009 Annual Meeting. At the same time, to ensure the viability of our science and its understandability to the public, policy makers, and those who provide funding opportunities, the 2009 meeting will also strongly address how the science can be applied directly to the needs of the public, governmental agencies, and industry.”
Dick Berg, 2009 Technical Program Chair |
