Sedimentology

Applications for the IAS Grants can be submitted by 31 March.
And if you're going to the 37th International Meeting of Sedimentology, I invite you to the workshop on 'How to apply for the IAS Grants' that I will lead together with Chelsea Pederson, Gonzalo Veiga, Marcos Aurell and Daniel Ariztegui.

Call for papers to The Depositional Record Special Issue on 'Carbonate depositional environments: Past and future questions—A Tribute to the career of E. A. Shinn': onlinelibrary.wiley.com/page/journal...

Submission deadline: 5 December, 2024

Wednesday with #37IMS
The Torridonian field trip is held on 20-23 June and will provide an opportunity to discuss the development and interpretation of fluvial planform styles in the Precambrian and through geological time: www.iasaberdeen2024.org/field-trips/
by Neil Davies and Will McMahon​

Have you participated in the @sedimentology.bsky.social Summer School? or maybe, do you plan to attend? or do you plan to organize one? or you just want to learn about this IAS event.
If you answered YES to at least one question, I invite you to @sedsonline.bsky.social Webinar: sedsonline.com

37th International Meeting of Sedimentology #37IMS offers a series of field trips. Field trips are an optional element that you can choose at registration or you can go back and add to your registration at a later date. Highly recommended: www.iasaberdeen2024.org/field-trips/

We encourage you to submit nominations for the Johannes Walther Medal, Early Career Scientist Award, and Sun Shu Prizes of the IAS: www.sedimentologists.org/awards
Deadline: 31 Jan.
Awards will be bestowed at the 37th International Meeting of Sedimentology #37IMS in Aberdeen: www.iasaberdeen2024.org

@makingripples.bsky.social has been making striations at #BSRG23!

@sedimentology.bsky.social stand all set up at #BSRG23. Come and have a chat and get one of our fabulous IAS grain size cards!

That was a terrific presentation C. Robertson Handford. Congratulations!
Robert, it was a great pleasure to host you at the @sedsonline.bsky.social Webinar.
And for those who missed it: the recording will be available in a few days: sedsonline.com

For my first post, a view of hypogenic voids in Dirtlow Rake, a strike-slip fault on the northern Derbyshire Platform. These voids - and their calcite fill - are occupying much of my time as we ponder their potential role in fluid flow and reaction in Mississippian Limestone

Set your alarm. Fabulous webinar this Wednesday!👇👇👇

Welcome @makingripples.bsky.social. Happy to see you here.
