Experimental Stratigraphy Workshop
University of Texas, Austin campus
Austin Texas, United States
11 - 12 December 2012
The primary goals of the workshop are
  • to convene participants to consider grand challenges in morphodynamics, geomorphology, and stratigraphy that can be addressed using physical experiments;
  • to identify user requirements to achieve the grand challenges in terms of accessing experimental data and advanced experimental technologies;
  • to generate, develop, and frame innovative ideas on community standards for data and metadata related to sediment experiments; and
  • to identify needs and explore solutions for data storage and also cyberinfrastructure needs for data dissemination.


The workshop will include a live experiment in the University of Texas Sediment Transport and Earth-surface Processes (STEP) basin.
