National Geomorphology Symposium / 2nd Latin American Meeting of Geomorphology

Dates: From 01 Aug, 2008 till 08 Feb, 2008
Location: Belo Horizonte

The National Geomorphology Symposium (SINAGEO) is the main scientific event in the field of Geomorphology in Brazil. It gathers several professionals from fields such as Geography, Geology, Engineering, Geotechnical Engineering, Biology and other environmental sciences.

This is the seventh issue of the event, and it hosts the 2nd Latin American Meeting of Geomorphology, thus broadening the event coverage of participating professions. The SINAGEO is held biannually, and it is always hosted by a University with support of the Brazilian Geomorphology Union (UGC), a member of the International Association of Geomorphologists (IAG).

The event will be held from 1st to 8th August, 2008 and it will be organized by the Department of Geography of the Geosciences Institute (IGC) at Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG).
