meeting roll call video * Please note that the assigned
year of the meetings is in keeping with the intended annual meeting date in
December, but due to the pandemic, meetings were held in March of the
subsequent year. Hence, the 2020 meeting was conducted in March 2021 and the
2021 meeting was conducted in March 2022, and the 2022 meeting was conducted
in March 2023. We kept the original year number sequence so we can return to
the regular annual heartbeat of post American Geophysical Union December
meetings. About Gilbert Club Since 1983
the Gilbert Club has met on the UC Berkeley campus on the day after the
annual meeting in San Francisco of the American Geophysical Union (AGU). The
purpose of Gilbert Club, which has no formal affiliation with any
organization, is to hear talks and discuss research in geomorphology,
especially theoretical geomorphology. The name derives from the
geomorphologist Grove
Karl Gilbert, but the term "club" is whimsical as Gilbert Club
is not itself an organization and there is no membership. Gilbert Club was
simply conceived as an opportunity for a growing community to hear major
talks, debate new ideas, and encourage community level discussion of issues.
The goal is to have faculty, students, government researchers and industry
workers meet regularly to spawn collaborations and, frankly, to encourage
friendships, on an annual basis. It has always been an open meeting,
first advertised through paper mailings and now through email. In recent
years attendance has approached 300. We normally have just three or four
50-minute presentations, followed by 20 minutes of discussion and debate.
During the last hour or more, depending on how well we keep on schedule, we
have "pop ups," during which brief (a few minutes) presentations
are made by whomever wishes to do so. We have long breaks and lunch, as
well as an evening of pizza and beer to encourage discussion and strengthen
communication, when we meet in person. Mailing list To
