!Important dates:
*Early-bird registration before June 30th
*Regular registration until August 10th
*Abstract submission until August 10th
\\
The 2014 TOPO-EUROPE Meeting will be held in Barcelona at the ''CosmoCaixa Museum
of Science'' located at the slope of the Tibidabo Mountain. This 3-day conference will focus
on the links between topographic evolution, crustal and lithospheric mantle structures, and
geodynamic processes occurring at various depth- and time-scales.\\
The conference will be multidisciplinary including participants from geodynamics,
tectonics, seismology, sedimentology, geomorphology, oceanography, etc. Attendance is
open but limited to a 100 participants, and contributions (mainly posters) will be welcome
on all topics related to the evolution of the Earth's topography. Students’ attendance will be
stimulated and stimulating. A preliminary program and registration details will soon be available.
