Subject: Workshop Kolka Karmadon, Caucasus





Dear colleagues and friends,



Some of you have already received the first circular on the forthcoming 10th anniversary Kolka/Karmadon Glacial Disaster Workshop that is going to be held in Vladikavkaz, Caucasus, Russia during 16-20 September 2012. Please read the annex below for more details. We have already received good responses, which, as organizers, we find highly encouraging.
Could you please circulate this information to additional colleagues who may be interested?
 
To make  participation more rewarding, we have organized a field excursion to Karmadon and try to get a helicopter flight over Kolka glacier at a reasonable rate. Those which have questions concerning travel or financial support can address one of us three, we do our best to help you.

This is also reminder to those have not yet sent their visa questionnaire form to inform that the deadline for filing the same is coming near, the authorities ask for the 20th of June, 2012. So please do submit your visa questionnaire as the earliest and book your space in time.

With interesting presentations expected from you and our colleagues from East and West, this event is going to be an unique and exciting experience for us all. There are not many chances to travel to North Ossetia.
  
Thank you and best regards,
 
Jean F. Schneider
