For more than four decades, the Binghamton Geomorphology Symposium has been an annual conference designed to bring together geomorphologists from across the disciplines of geology, geography, and environmental engineering in order to enable them to exchange research results, become aware of new techniques, explore special themes, identify future opportunities, and enhance collaborative networks. The 43rd Binghamton Geomorphology Symposium will be held in September 2012 at Jackson Hole, Wyoming. The theme of this symposium is the field tradition in geomorphology. Participants will hear papers, view posters, and engage in field explorations as they reflect on the history of the discipline, acknowledge key contributions by a number of pioneering geomorphologists who have recently passed away, and consider the role of field work as researchers begin to tackle challenging, societally relevant questions involving climate change and sustainable management of the Earth system. The conference proceedings will be published in a special volume of a leading journal. NSF funding will provide support to facilitate the involvement of students and invited presenters.The 2012 Binghamton Geomorphology Symposium will provide a forum to honor the field tradition in geomorphology and explore its potential to help advance the field in the future. It will facilitate greater cross-fertilization among research groups from different regions, and it will pass on the field tradition to the next generation of geomorphologists to early-career researchers and students.

四十多年来，宾厄姆顿地貌学研讨会一直是一年一度的会议，旨在汇集地质学，地理学和环境工程等学科的地貌学家，以便他们交流研究成果，了解新技术，探索特殊主题，确定未来的机会，并加强合作网络。第43届宾厄姆顿地貌学研讨会将于2012年9月在怀俄明州杰克逊霍尔举行。本次研讨会的主题是地貌学领域的传统。与会者将听取论文，观看海报，并参与实地考察，因为他们反映了该学科的历史，承认一些开创性的地貌学家最近去世的关键贡献，并考虑实地工作的作用，因为研究人员开始解决具有挑战性的社会相关问题，涉及气候变化和地球系统的可持续管理。会议记录将在一本主要杂志的特刊上发表。国家科学基金会将提供资金支持，以促进学生和受邀演讲者的参与。2012年宾厄姆顿地貌学研讨会将提供一个论坛，以尊重地貌学领域的传统，并探索其潜力，以帮助推动该领域的未来发展。它将促进来自不同地区的研究小组之间的更大的交叉施肥，并将实地传统传递给下一代地貌学家、早期职业研究人员和学生。
