PAGES Varves Working Group Second Workshop

17-19 March 2011, Corpus Christi, TX (USA)

The PAGES Varves Working Group will hold its second workshop in Corpus Christi, TX (USA) in March 2011. The theme of this workshop will be broadly focused on learning from other communities. This follows a first workshop held in Estonia in April 2010 that focused on recent methodological advances in exploiting varved paleoclimate records.

The workshop is by invitation. Funds are being sought to defray travel expenses, and encourage the participation of early career scientists such as new faculty, post-docs, and graduate students.

The workshop is timed to immediately precede the AGU Chapman Conference on Climates, Past Landscapes, and Civilizations to be held in Santa Fe, NM to allow participation in both conferences on a single trip.

A detailed program of the workshop will be made available in a second announcement. Scientists interested in participating in the workshop should contact the organizers.
