Dear Colleagues of the Earth Sciences world,

Following the big success of the 1^st Congress (ICES 2017) of this series, it is a great pleasure to invite you to the 2^nd International Congress on Earth Sciences in SE Asia (ICES 2019). Universitas Padjadjaran (UNPAD) and Universiti Brunei Darussalam (UBD) extend their warmest welcome to all international Earth-scientists and researchers to participate in our ICES 2019. The Congress will be held between the 18^th – 20^th November 2019, in Bali, Indonesia.

Our aim is to establish this series of Congresses, which will have a profound and uninterrupted impact in the field of Earth Sciences, including traditional and fast-rising, modern scientific topics, in the region of SE Asia. Moreover, we aspire to create a solid scientific platform for Geoscientists in SE Asia and beyond, to exchange ideas and foster a network for meaningful and effective collaborations.

Selected papers (from oral and poster presentations including ePoster) from ICES 2019 will be published in Special Issues of Scopus-indexed Journals, aiming to gather a bunch of peer-reviewed publications on the new advances on Earth Sciences.

The Organising Committee look forward to seeing you in Bali.

Sincerely,

Eleonora Agustine
Chair of the Organising Committee of ICES 2019
