This project is a 3-day-long workshop designed to explore the applications of high-resolution laser mapping to analyzing changes at the surface of the Earth.The objectives of this workshop are 1) to bring together scientists who are using high-resolution topographic datasets to develop and test intellectually significant ideas regarding Earth surface processes, and 2) to provide scientists with direct, hands-on opportunities to learn about newresearch advances and future directions of research in Earth surface processes. The workshop includes ~12 oral presentations which will be up to 1.5 hours in length. Each of these will be followed by relatively long discussion periods in which participants can ask questions about the data, the scientific goals, the results, and the techniques used to obtain theresults. All participants have the opportunity to present posters in one large room for the entire duration of the workshop. Blocks of time will be devoted toviewing the posters, and we anticipate that this will provide many opportunities for students to interact with experienced investigators. The workshop participants will prepare a report thaht will be used as a basis for stimu;ating research in this area.The general themes of the workshop include the following topics:1. Geomorphic transport laws: current knowledge and future directions2. Landslides, landscapes, climate and land use3. Bedrock fracturing, topography, and landscape evolution4. The significance of topographic scaling5. Channels in three dimensions6. Tectonics, climate and topography7. Landuse legacies, river restoration and rivers revealed8. Glacial and periglacial landscapes 9. Coastal and tidal landscapes10. Forest and ecosystem dynamics11. The state of the art in Earth surface processes, and future directions of research.The outcomes of this workshop will have significant benefit for investigating major problems of value to society, such as river flooding, landslides, effects of agriculture and development on the landscape, and water resources issues.

该项目是一个为期三天的研讨会，旨在探索高分辨率激光测绘在分析地球表面变化方面的应用。该研讨会的目标是：1）将使用高分辨率地形数据集的科学家聚集在一起，开发和测试有关地球表面过程的智力上重要的想法，2）为科学家提供直接，实践的机会，了解新的研究进展和未来的研究方向在地球表面过程。研讨会包括约12个口头报告，长度将长达1.5小时。每一次之后都将有相对较长的讨论时间，参与者可以就数据、科学目标、结果以及获得结果所使用的技术提出问题。所有与会者都有机会在整个讲习班期间在一个大房间里展示海报。我们将花大量的时间来观看海报，我们预计这将为学生提供许多与经验丰富的调查人员互动的机会。研讨会的参与者将准备一份报告，作为激励这一领域研究的基础。地貌输运规律：现有知识和未来方向2。滑坡、景观、气候和土地利用3.基岩断裂、地形和景观演变4.地形定标的意义5.三维通道6.地质构造、气候和地形7.土地利用遗产、河流恢复和河流显露8。冰川和冰缘景观9.沿海和潮汐水域10.森林和生态系统动态地球表面过程的最新技术和未来的研究方向。这次研讨会的成果将对调查对社会有价值的重大问题，如河流泛滥、山体滑坡、农业和发展对景观的影响以及水资源问题产生重大影响。
