The International Lithosphere Program (ILP) Regional Co-ordination Committee DynaQlim invites scientists and experts to participate in the First DynaQlim Meeting to be held in Copenhagen, Denmark, February 4-5, 2008. We hope that participants will prepare short presentations on their topics.


The meeting place

The meeting will be arranged in Geocenter of the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland (GEUS). It is located in the center of Copenhagen. The information on finding the meeting place can be found on the GEUS web page.

It takes 5-10 minutes to walk from the train stations Østerport and Nørreport. In the airport there is an easy access to two different train systems:
Regional trains toward Helsingør/Nivå take you to Østerport and Metro trains take you to Nørreport.

If you arrive in the Copenhagen main train station many subway lines as well as regional trains can take you to Nørreport and to Østerport.
