We are pleased to announce the program of the upcoming conference organized by PhD students of the Department of Earth Sciences of the University of Pisa.

The conference will be held in Pisa on 2nd and 3rd March 2023 at the Department of Earth Sciences.

The conference “Water in Geosciences” aims to address, from a multidisciplinary perspective, the crucial issue of water, as a resource to be studied and managed and as a natural agent influencing land and communities. Key topics will range from tracking water flows in various natural systems, to the study of the resource in contexts subject to environmental pressures and to the landscape shaping capacity of water, often also potentially destructive. Space will be given to an international set of keynote speakers, including both young researchers and internationally renowned researchers.

The conference has the objective of creating an opportunity for PhD students and young researchers to meet and discuss the current and crucial issue of water. Young researchers will also have the opportunity to meet national and international senior researchers and professors to benefit from their expertise.
