This workshop will focus on the structure and significance of the lithosphere system. It will inform, motivate and provide its participants with the state-of-the-art knowledge and current challenges in understanding the lithosphere system by highlighting the most important areas where significant progress has been recently achieved. The workshop will cover the full range of observational, theoretical and technical capabilities currently available to the scientific community.

The theme of the Assembly is “Geodesy for a changing environment” to be developed within the domains of interest of the four IAG Commissions, namely: Reference Frames, Gravity Field, Rotation and Geodynamics, and Positioning and Applications. The scientific assembly provides a unique opportunity for the international community to meet, propose and discuss topics where geodetic science plays a considerable role. The theme of the assembly draws geodesists’ attention to impacts of environmental variations/changes, increasingly severe extreme events of different nature and to developing strategies apt to capture the onset of abrupt changes in the Earth system.
