Sedimentary Processes - Ancient to Modern
The notifications to presenting authors confirming their specific date and time of presentation will be communicated the 20 August 2016.
Second Draft Preliminary programme is being updated per theme as the SPC signs them off.
The detailed draft day by day programme for each theme is being announced as it is being collated. These are still preliminary and will be finalised by the 20 August.
As this is the Second draft, please note that where there are abstract presenters not yet registered, these have now been removed from the programme.
Once removed, you will not be included in the abstracts or the programme. If your co-author is presenting, please contact the secretariat urgently to confirm and advise so that your paper can be moved to the correct presenter. Email 35igc@allevents.co.za
if you have any queries or if you have in the interim managed to secure finances and registered.

Sedimentary Processes - Ancient to Modern
The movement and deposition of sediments by water and air has characterised surface processes since the formation of the planet. Papers and symposia on all aspects of sedimentology, from the Archaean to the present, and in all geological environments, on land and offshore, are invited for this theme.
Please note that this is preliminary and final allocations in the programme will be announced in the 5th Announcement and updated on the Website in July.
PLEASE NOTE THAT ALL PRESENTING AUTHORS (FOR ORALS) OR AT LEAST ONE AUTHOR (FOR POSTERS) MUST BE REGISTERED FOR THE MEETING BY 31 MAY 2016 IN ORDER TO HAVE THE ABSTRACT INCLUDED IN THE PROGRAMME.
The following symposium proposals have already been submitted:
-
Milovan Fustic and Kyungsik Choi
» Tidal Processes and Products: From Tides to Rock Record -
El Hassane Chellai and Ian Jarvis
» Phosphorus, phosphorites and marine authigenesis -sedimentology, geochemistry and environments of formation -
Wlady Altermann, Malcolm Walter and Kenichiro Sugitani
» Archean Stromatolites and their Depositional Environments -
Jasper Knight
» Climatic controls on sedimentary systems and processes -
Ken Eriksson and Amy Weislogel
» Detrital Zircons in Basin Analysis: Provenance Reconstruction, Chronostratigraphy, Sediment Routing -
Paul Carling and Marc De Batist (IAS) ; Vitor Abreu and Mike Blum (SEPM)
» Transatlantic Sedimentology (sponsored by IAS and SEPM) -
