SIAM Activity Group on Geosciences


Welcome to SIAG GS


The SIAM Activity Group on Geosciences provides an interactive environment wherein modelers concerned with problems of the geosciences can share their problems with algorithm developers, applied mathematicians, numerical analysts, and other scientists. Topics of interest include flow in porous media, multiphase flows, phase separation, wave propagation, combustion, channel flows, global and regional climate modeling, reactive flows, sedimentation and diagenesis, and rock fracturing. If you are a SIAM member interested in any of these application areas, please join us. SIAG GS is growing. We currently have over 320 members, up from 250 in 2005.


The highlight of our activities is our biennial conference. The last conferences were held in Leipzig (June 2009) and Santa Fe (March 2007) and were both well attended conferences with many stimulating presentations and discussions. See the left menu item "Geosciences Conference 2007" for viewgraphs of several of the plenary talks given at the conference, as well as an article about the conference published in SIAM News. We will shortly supply viewgraphs of 2009 talks. Two of the highlights of the 2009 conference were the prize ceremonies for both Mary Wheeler, who is the recipient of our first Career Award, and Jan Nordbotten, the recipient of our first Young Scientist award. Congratulations to both! We are delighted to have such distinguished and talented researchers in our midst.

The next SIAG GS conference will be held around March 2011 somewhere in the US. We are currently discussing possible locations.


We have added a Job Listings page (left menu). Please email us with job listings in the geosciences area to have them posted on our website.


Bear with us as we develop this website further. We hope you will find it informative. Don't hesitate to contact any of us with comments or questions.


Best wishes from your new 2009-2011 SIAG AG committee:

  • Chair: Margot Gerritsen, margot.gerritsen@stanford.edu
  • Vice-Chair: Jean Roberts, jean.roberts@inria.fr
  • Program Director: Malgorzata Peszynska, mpesz@math.oregonstate.edu
