Dear colleagues
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">You are invited to submit an abstract to our session on "<b class="">Marginal Basins, paleo-plates and tectonics of the Western Pacific</b>”, convened by Dr.Carla Dimalanta and myself. The session will be held at the Virtual GEOSEA 2021 meeting
organized by Geological Society of the Philippines. Other sessions may also be of interest (listed below). </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Meeting Date: Dec 6-8, 2021</div>
<div class="">Venue: Virtual</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Abstract deadline is Sept 17, 2021. More information is below. I hope you will consider this excellent opportunity to share your science on SE Asia and surrounding regions. </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Please feel free to forward to any interested colleagues. </div>

<b class="">The Regional Geoscience Congress of Southeast Asia (GEOSEA) 2021</b></div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Originally set to be held last year, the GEOSEA 2021 will be held on a virtual mode with the theme, “5 (+1) Years after ASEAN Integration: Milestones, Challenges and Perspectives for Geoscientists”. The Virtual GEOSEA 2021 provides an online platform
for the exchange of ideas and recent developments among members of the different geological societies of the Southeast Asian region. This event aims to foster cooperation in advancing the geosciences, and to address unprecedented changes in the geoscience
community due to pandemic. Current researches and findings from various fields in the geosciences including energy and resources, geohazards and tectonics, among others will be tackled in the scientific discussions. Geoscientists, policy makers, media practitioners, undergraduate
and graduate students, and other stakeholders will participate in the said event. </div>
