The steepestdescent is a one-day conference for topics in the broad field of earth surface dynamics. It will be held at the University of Vienna on Saturday 13th of April right after EGU, and will consist of a set of invited talks, an open session, lunch and social interaction.

We are happy to announce that this year we will have the chance to listen to the three following speakers:

Eric Lajeunesse (IPGP - Paris) From the dynamics of bedload transport to the morphology of rivers, insights from the lab.
Page Chamberlain (Stanford) Grassland expansion and its role in altering the hydrologic balance from the Miocene to Recent.
Gerald Roberts (Birkbeck London) Geomorphic records of earthquake recurrence, multi-seismic cycle strain rates and viscous flow of the crust/mantle

In addition we will have informative speeches by Stuart Lane (Earth Surface Processes and Landforms), Niels Hovius (EGU Earth Surface Dynamics) and Sean Willett (Topo-europe).
