| CONFERENCE THEME Scientific studies of the Earth System are generally oriented towards understanding three broad and inter-related issues, namely: the origin and evolution of the Earth through geological time span of about 4.55 Ga; the formation of earth resources and their distribution in space and time; and the earth processes in land-ocean-atmosphere interfaces. The evolution of the solid earth witnessed several bench mark events like core-mantle separation within 50 Ma since the origin of Earth, when bulk of the siderophile elements sank down to the core and the resultant thermal energy initiated the mantle convection, followed by extraction of continental and oceanic crust from the bulk silicate Earth. Mantle convection is believed to have played a significant role in several geodynamic processes including sea floor spreading, and the making and breaking of super-continents through the geological time. The formation of hydrosphere and atmosphere paved the way for the origin of life and its proliferation in water bodies and landmass from about 2500 Ma onwards. Human civilization has always relied on various Earth resources for survival, growth and development. Geoscientists have made significant contribution in understanding the genesis and spatial distribution of resources of industrial and ore minerals, fossil fuels and groundwater. Based on this knowledge several geological, geochemical and geophysical exploration methods have been developed and these are successfully practiced for discovery of earth resources. Earth’s surface processes on land, ocean and their interfaces with atmosphere have a direct bearing on landforms, climate, rainfall and vegetation. Understanding these processes helps in supporting agriculture, and zonation and mitigation of several natural hazards. | ||||||||||
| CONFERENCE HIGHLIGHTS ? Keynote Address
? Journal: All authors who present their papers at the conference will be invited to submit an extended version of their research paper for the GSTF Journal of Geological Sciences (JGS) (Print ISSN: 2335-6774, E-periodical: 2335-6782). All submitted papers will go through blind review process for acceptance. All accepted papers (after the review process) will be included in the JGS on a complimentary basis (free-of-charge). GSTF JGS is hosted and published on Springer’s Open Access publishing platform - Global Science Journals (GSJ). In addition, it will be submitted to indexed by CAS, EBSCO, CrossRef, ProQuest, Ulrichsweb, Cabell's Directories and will be submitted to Google Scholar, IndexCopernicus, ScienceDirect amongst others. ? Book: Selected authors will be invited to contribute book chapters in "Recent Advances in Geosciences: Global Perspective" to be published by GSTF.The book will be co-edited by Dr. M. S. Pandian, GEOS Editor-In-Chief, from Pondicherry University, India and Prof. James P. Terry from Zayed University, Dubai, United Arab Emirates. ? Best Paper Awards and Best Student Paper Awards will be conferred at the conference (in order to qualify for the award, the paper must be presented at the conference). ? GEOS 2015 will also constitute a Special Panel Session. ? Panel Proposals: are invited for submission. A minimum of three papers centering on a specific topic will be accepted for submission under Panel Category.
