preliminary program

The meeting will span four days. The schedule is designed to maximize discussion opportunities across the range of paleoscience disciplines. The mornings will be divided into 3 sessions, each consisting of a plenary lecture and 3 solicited talks, followed by open discussions. The afternoons will be divided into a young scientist talk, poster session and a hot topic debate, moderated by a distinguished speaker. Sessions will be organized around PAGES scientific structure, with sessions for each of PAGES Foci and Cross-Cutting Themes (CCTs).


side meetings

Side meetings will be held alongside the OSM, including the 4th IPICS meeting and a PAGES/CLIVAR workshop. More information to follow.

Facilities are available for other groups wishing to hold a side meeting. To discuss this option, please contact Thorsten Kiefer.
