Aim:
The aim of this meeting is to bring together geoscientists from different sub-disciplines to address the problem of the interactions between erosional and depositional landscapes, sediment routing systems and the building of stratigraphy. By studying these interactions we gain a better understanding of the dynamics of the coupling between exhumation, erosion, transport and deposition of sediment in source to sink systems, and an enhanced ability to invert stratigraphy for forcing mechanisms.
Conference themes:
- THE EROSIONAL ENGINE
- THE DYNAMICS OF SEDIMENT ROUTING SYSTEMS
- LANDSCPES INTO ROCK: THE MAKING OF STRATIGRAPHY
- INTEGRATIVE STUDIES OF SEDIMENT ROUTING AND THE PETROLEUM SYSTEM
