European Geoscience Union annual meeting, Vienna

A number of QuakeRecNankai collaborators gathered in Vienna for the 2015 European Geoscience Union annual meeting. Geoscientists descend on the Austrian capital for the five day meeting every year; the 2015 meeting saw over 11,000 scientists from 108 countries give more than 14,000 presentations in 577 separate sessions.

The presentations included a poster on the QuakeRecNankai project, "Geological evidence for historical and older earthquakes and tsunamis along the Nankai Trough, Japan", which was a contribution to the session on "Large Earthquake and Tsunami Activity" held on Monday afternoon. The poster summarised published geological evidence for past earthquakes and tsunamis along the Nankai Trough and, for the first time at a major international conference, introduced the QuakeRecNankai project. The abstract for the poster can be found here.
