SEPM/GSL Joint Research Conference
"Palaeogeography: the spatial context for understanding the evolution of the Earth System"
St. Johns College, Cambridge, August 10-13, 2008
The palaeogeography is that of Markwick & Valdes, 2004.
Further information about this meeting can be found on the Geological Society, London website, including registration costs.
Schedule and Registration Details Available (pdf 415 kb) (click here)
Convenors: Roy Livermore (BAS); Paul Markwick (GETECH); Matthew Huber (U. Purdue)

Meeting Aim
The aim of this conference is to examine the role of palaeogeography in Earth System Science, especially how tectonics and palaeogeography influence palaeoclimate and palaeocean dynamics. We intend to bring together scientists from Academia and Industry whose research is either directed to generating palaeogeographies, or for whom palaeogeographies are a critical boundary condition. This will include, but is not limited to, experts in climate and ocean modelling, biogeography, tectonics, landscape ecology, GIS, frontier exploration, and palaeogeography. We are especially interested in researchers investigating how changing geography influences palaeoclimatology and palaeoceanography.


Contact Details and Further Information

This is the second of two related meetings
This is the second of two SEPM/GSL research conferences dealing with the issues associated with modelling in exploration; the first conference was "The Application of Earth System Modelling to Exploration".

IGC 2008 and GSL-SEPM Cambridge 2008
As some of you will know this year's 33rd IGC meeting in Norway is also in August. I have heard from the organizers of IGC that they are planning on ensuring that there will ne no conflict in timing between our Camrbidge conference on Palaeogeography and related sessions at IGC, which is great news and much appreciated by my co-convenors and myself. This means that for anyone interested in palaeogeography and worried about travelling great distances for just one meeting, you will now have the opportunity of attending two meetings during your travels, which will really make the trip cost effective and very productive
