MYRES

The Meeting of Young Researchers in the Earth Sciences (MYRES) is an inter-disciplinary conference series and international community building effort in the solid Earth sciences.

The kick-off meeting, MYRES-I on "Heat, Helium, Hotspots, and Whole Mantle Convection" was held in San Diego 2004; from material from this meeting, see the MYRES-I pages. The core team that worked on MYRES-I consisted of Thorsten Becker (USC), Magali Billen (UC Davis), James Kellogg (UCSB), Jeanne Hardebeck (USGS Menlo Park), Cin-Ty Lee (Rice), Laurent Montesi (WHOI), Wendy Panero (U Michigan), Frederik Simons (Princeton), and Shijie Zhong (U Boulder).

Please see www.myres.org, the MYRES web page for information on where MYRES went from there, including MYRES-II, MYRES-III, and MYRES-2010.
