XIV COLAGE – Conferencia Latinoamericana de Geofísica Espacial
(https://www.rice.unam.mx/colage2024/)
Total Solar Eclipse Mexico
Monterrey, NL, Mexico
8-13 April 2024

The Asociación Latinoamericana de Geofísica Espacial (ALAGE /
https://alage.org/ ) is an autonomous scientific society that aims to
foster research development in Space Geophysics, leveraging human
resources, cultural unity and similar economic conditions in Latin
America. ALAGE seeks to complement the activities of existing regional
geophysical organizations.

One of ALAGE’s main activities is the periodic organization of
meetings attended by scientists working in the ALAGE areas of
interest. These meetings, known as Conferencia Latinoamericana de
Geofísica Espacial (COLAGE), have been held in various locations:
Brazil (1988), Mexico (1991), Cuba (1993), Argentina (1996), Costa
Rica (1998), Chile (2001), Brazil (2004), Mexico (2007), Costa Rica
(2011), Peru (2014), Argentina (2018), Chile (2021, online), and
Brazil (2022).

The XIV COLAGE will take place in Monterrey, NL, Mexico, at the
Library Raúl Rangel Frias-UANL (https://goo.gl/maps/NQJ1C3DUtCh6YQdq8)
from 9-13 April on the occasion of the Total Solar Eclipse in Mexico
in 2024 (https://www.rice.unam.mx/colage2024/index.php/eclipse-2024/).
