ALPPS 2008 – Alpine Landslide Problems and Projects Switzerland 2008

Bern, Switzerland, August 23 - September 3, 2008

Welcome to the XII International Conference and Field Trip on Landslides (ICFL), the ALPPS 2008. Founded by members of the Japanese Landslide Society and the International Landslide Research Group, it has always been the intention of the ICFL to provide scientists, engineers and planners concerned with landslides with an environment, where they could discuss and exchange ideas about landslide processes, investigations and monitoring right in the field. After previously holding meetings in Japan, USA, Australia, New Zealand, Switzerland, Austria, Italy, Czechoslovakia, Spain, England, Poland and Norway, it is an honour for us to announce, that the XII ICFL, the ALPPS 2008, will again, be held in Switzerland. Through a variety of fieldtrips and a symposium, the ALPPS 2008 will use the surrounding Swiss Alps to provide an excellent environment to observe and discuss different slide phenomena.
