The EarthFlows meeting is a two day international conference, with the intention of bringing together top researchers from various disciplines (geoscience, mathematics, material science, theoretical and experimental physics), who have different perspectives on interface dynamics, flows and deformations during solid and fluid earth processes.
Below you will find the program for this year's meeting.
