Invitation

The Association of European Geological Societies (AEGS) and the Geological Society of Estonia (EGeoS) cordially invite all geoscientists and students of related fields to participate in MAEGS-15—the 15th Meeting of the Association of European Geological Societies—that will take place on 16–20September 2007,in Tallinn,Estonia.

The conference will be devoted to georesources and their management,which are among the key issues not only in present-day Earth sciences but also in politics and the world economy. MAEGS-15 is closely connected with the International Year of Planet Earth,an initiative of IUGS and UNESCO aiming to increase the knowledge and public awareness in geosciences.
The scientific scope of the meeting will cover various Earth resources including hydrocarbons,minerals,rawmaterials and groundwater,their geology and sustainable management. Additional topics focus on environmental geology and georesources of the Baltic region. Although organised by AEGS,the geographical scope of the meeting is not restricted to Europe participants from and contributions on other regions are all most welcome.

We are looking forward to meeting you in Tallinn.
