Elucidation of the Active Geosphere. Kyoto University Acvtive Geosphere investigations for the 21st century COE Program

The 2nd KAGI21 International Symposium, Beppu, 2004

This International Symposium will discuss and create a new multi-disciplinary approach for the Earth Sciences emphasizing the physical and/or chemical processes that take place within the gActive Geosphereh. The symposium is organized by the 21st Century Centers of Excellence (COE) program in Kyoto University. This is a multi-disciplinary research and educational effort in the Earth Sciences. We are forging new investigations of the lithosphere, oceans, and atmosphere to study the Active Geosphere.

Theme:

"The Active Geosphere in Convergent Regions"
We will emphasize the various phenomena of water, heat and material circulations and their multi-time scale variations as related to convergent plate boundaries, especially focusing on the variations in the "Active Geosphere" near the subduction zones of the Philippine-Sea Plate.
