EarthFlows December Seminar

Black background with white circles and grey shape symbolizing a mountain with a blue drop on the top of it. Earth flows is written next to it in pink letters.

EarthFlows is a strategic research initiative selected by the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences at the University of Oslo. Geophysical flow processes provide first order controls on the evolution of the Earth’s crust and near-surface environments, including the hydrosphere, the atmosphere, the cryosphere and even the biosphere. The flow may include magmas, water and air, or chemically and physically more complex fluids such as hydrocarbons, CO2-water mixtures, and fluid-solid mixtures. Moreover, several rocks as well as ice, can behave both as solids or fluids, depending on the relevant time scales.

The seminar will be held on Zoom.
