|MOI summary=Tectonic deformation and climate-driven erosion control the shape and evolution of continental topography. In turn, landscapes and sedimentary records offer valuable archives of the dynamics of these processes and of their potential couplings. However, unravelling the respective influence of mantle or lithosphere dynamics,erosion, sedimentation, climatic changes and structural inheritance remains a major challenge in the Geosciences. This partly results from a lack of understanding of how integrating short- and fine-scale processes into the big picture of topography building, basin development and structural evolution. To address this issue, numerical and experimental modelling is required both to refine our understanding of the dynamics of the Earth’s surface and sub-surface and to guide future geophysical, geochemical and field-based observations. To this session, we welcome studies that develop one or both approaches, as well as innovative contributions addressing technical and theoretical challenges. We in particular warmly welcome studies 1) that model processes occurring on short time scales (earthquakes, typhoons or floods) or on fine spatial scales (fracturing, landsliding or river avulsion) or 2) that integrate these short- or fine-scale processes into longer- or larger-scale models to investigate how the wide spectrum of couplings between deformation, climate and surface processes shape the Earth’s topography.<br>

GeoMod is a biennial international conference focusing on modelling in Geosciences. Previous GeoMod conferences took place in Potsdam (2014), Lausanne (2012), Lisbon (2010), Florence (2008), Lucerne (2004) and Milan (2002). The main aim is to discuss and present the latest ideas, methods and results of laboratory, analytical and numerical modeling of geological processes.
 
The 2016 conference will take place in the city of La Grande-Motte, near Montpellier, South of France from October 17th (6-9 p.m. Ice Breaker Party) to October 20th, 2016 (6 p.m. End of GEOMOD 2016) and a field trip is scheduled for the day after the meeting, the 21st of October 2016 (Starting at 8:30 a.m.).

Montpellier, France
17 - 20 October 2016
GeoMod is a biennial international conference focusing on experimental and numerical modelling in Geosciences. The main aim is to discuss and present the latest ideas, methods and results of laboratory, analytical and numerical modeling of geological processes. A particular focus will be on controversial topics and natural observations that are explained by different models. GeoMod 2016 wants to bring together junior and senior researchers from both Academia and Industry.

GeoMod 2016 is organized as a four days workshop (Monday 17 to Friday 20 of October) with three days dedicated to invited talks and a poster session with posters on display throughout the entire conference duration.

The workshop will be followed by a one day (October 21th, 2016) geological field trip in the Languedoc region.
