Workshop in Kyoto University on Earthquakes and More ...
(This is coorganized by the 21st Century COE programs in Graduate School of Sciences and DPRI.)

Place: International Conference Hall (the same room as on Aug 31 and Sep 1), Clock Tower, Kyoto University

Time: 9:00 - 12:30 on September 2, 2005

Program:

9:00 - 10:10
