Sessions

The Symposium will consist of five plenary sessions (one for each day, with no parallel sessions) focusing on “interdisciplinary relations” rather than specific disciplines. The final objective is to let the participants perceive all the disciplinary overlaps and interactions that naturally arise, so that they may realize the extraordinary transdisciplinary potential of glaciology.

The duration of each oral presentation will probably be of 15 min + 5 min discussion. Oral presentations will be organized thematically whenever possible, unless the speaker or other conditions require otherwise.
