The Canadian Geotechnical Society’s Geohazards Committee has launched the 7th Canadian Geohazards Conference website and the call for abstracts. Geohazards 7 will be held June 3-6, 2018 at the Coast Canmore Hotel & Conference Centre in Canmore, Alberta.
The CGS’s Geohazards conferences are the premiere forums in Canada for the sharing and dissemination of scientific and engineering knowledge related to geohazard assessment and risk management. Geohazards 7 will touch on the full gamut of hazards and risks associated with floods, debris flows, landslides, snow avalanche, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, degrading permafrost and more, and will be of interest to engineering and geoscience students and consultants, industry, and government agency representatives who are involved in planning, approval, construction and operation of infrastructure and residential development in areas prone to geohazards.
For full details and to submit an abstract, please see www.geohazards7.ca – the abstract submission deadline is November 1, 2017.
