The strategic objective of this conference at Suzdal is a deeper integration of Russian geophysics into the global geophysical disciplines, targeting the younger generations as potential scholars. With the above goal taken into account, over 40 invitations were sent out to leading scientists from USA, Asia and Europe from within various subfields of the sciences of the Earth.

Up to now for over two decades conferences of such enormous dimensions have not been held in Russia. At the conference there will be a discussion on the current state and latest achievements in the study of global and regional processes within the bowels of the earth and their appearance on the surface and in geophysical fields.

The latest world developments in the study of the structure, content and rheology substance of the earth's mantel will be presented, as well as the mechanisms that lead to generation and evolution of the lithospheric plates, earth mantle convections, occurrence and rise and introduction of the hot spots into the plumes of the lithosphere, processes in zones of subduction, in particular influence of water on the mantel, lithospheric, and bedrock tectonic and seismic processes.

Latest observational data, precise laboratory measurements, theoretical research, mathematical modeling, in particular, modern supercomputer technologies will also be brought to the fore during these discussions.

The following themes will be addressed:

1. Computational geophysics (seismology, mantle , core, extreme computing and visualization)

2. Rheology (crustal, mantle) and transport properties and fluid dynamical instabilities

3. Field and seismological observations

There will also be a summary session with round-table discussion.

Аннотация
Стратегическая цель конференции – более тесная интеграция российской геофизики в мировую науку с упором на молодых ученых. Для этого приглашены и согласились выступить с обзорными докладами более 30 ведущих ученых США и Европы по различным направлениям наук о Земле. Конференций такого масштаба в России не проводилось более двух десятилетий. На конференции будет проведено обсуждение современного состояния и последних достижений в области исследования глобальных и региональных процессов в недрах Земли и их проявлений на поверхности и в геофизических полях. Будут представлены последние мировые достижения в исследовании строения, состава и реологии вещества мантии, механизмов генерации и эволюции литосферных плит, мантийной конвекции, возникновения и подъема и внедрения в литосферу плюмов горячих точек, процессов в зонах субдукции, в частности влияние воды мантийные, литосферные и коровые тектонические и сейсмические процессы. Будут представлены последние данные наблюдений, данные лабораторных измерений, теоретические исследования, математического моделирования, в частности современные суперкомпьютерные технологии.
