    Dear Colleagues,

    We would like to draw your attention to a session on Aeolian Processes on Earth and Other Planetary Bodies at this year's AGU (in Washington, D.C. from December 9-13).

    Session description: Past and present aeolian processes shape landscapes throughout our Solar System: from dust devils and aeolian sedimentary rock strata on Mars to windblown bedforms on Titan and Pluto. Earth observations, experiments, and theories have provided a basis for assessing and predicting aeolian processes on other bodies. However, integrating Earth and planetary discoveries is essential to interpret aeolian processes across the range of planetary atmospheres and landscapes. Existing models are challenged by rare but valuable planetary datasets, providing new understanding of fundamental processes. This session welcomes presentations on work that increases our understanding of modern and ancient aeolian processes on Earth and across our Solar System. Submissions on integrating planetary and terrestrial knowledge, or exploring new ideas and theories, instruments, and methodologies, are especially encouraged. The session will consist of oral and poster presentations, with live Q&A options for online attendees. For details of additional activities, including a mixer, see https://bit.ly/aeolianAGU2024 or email claire@aeolisresearch.com 

    Conveners: Claire Newman (Aeolis Research), Sarah Trimble (US Naval Research Lab), Chloe Daudon (Caltech), George McDonald (Aeolis Research, Portland State University), and M. Colin Marvin (Stanford University).

    Please consider submitting an abstract to this session by the July 31st deadline:

    All the best,

    Claire, Sarah, Chloe, George, and Colin.
