Welcome
Invitation
On behalf of the ISSMGE, the German Geotechnical Society (DGGT) and the University of Rostock warmly invite you to participate in the 12th Baltic Sea Geotechnical Conference being held in Rostock, from 31st May to 2nd June 2012. This is the second extended Baltic Conference which we trust will be as successful as the first one, the 11th Baltic Sea Geotechnical Conference in Gdansk.
The goals and the scope of the conference
The main aim for all countries around the Baltic Sea and of the 12th Baltic Sea Geotechnical Conference is to provide a forum for an intensive transfer of ideas and experiences with other engineering and research groups. Significant contributions from industry are encouraged and hence the ultimate aim is to bring together state-of-the-art research in Geotechnics in maritime engineering with current industrial experiences.
The conference is not limited only to the countries of the Baltic Sea area and participants from other regions are also warmly welcomed.
The Baltic Sea area is a booming region with a lot of related problems with regards to infrastructure development. Sustainable development has to reflect on a balance of interest between industrial and touristic use and protection of nature. Additionally, consequences of climate change and sustainability strategies regarding the population’s need of protection and of future development are to be considered.
