Interesting sessions at the EGU meeting in Vienna, deadline for abstract submission: 18 January 2010
Daniela Sauer
I would like to point to the next European Geosciences Union (EGU)
Meeting in Vienna, Austria, 2-7 May 2010.
There will be several Soil System Sciences sessions that are
interesting for paleopedologists, e.g.:
• SSS30: Archaeopedology and Archaeological Soil Micromorphology
Convener: Luca Trombino; Co-Conveners: Donald Davidson; Martine Gérard
• SSS31: From rock to soil
Convener: Martine Gérard; Co-Conveners: Georges Stoops; Luca Trombino
• SSS32: From soil to rock
Convener: Georges Stoops; Co-Conveners: Luca Trombino; Martine Gérard
• HS2.6/GM8.7/SSS41: Past soil erosion: temporal and spatial
quantification
Convener: Markus Fuchs; Co-Conveners: Dominik Faust; Stefan Dreibrodt;
Peter Houben
• NP3.9/SSS44 Complexity and nonlinearity in soils
Convener: Ana Maria Tarquis; Co-Conveners: Edith Perrier; R M Lark;
Ruth E Falconer
• and many more…
Moreover, there will be a session that aims on bringing together
scientists working on palaeo-environmental reconstruction, based on
different types of archives, such as palaeo-lakes, speleothems,
paleosols, sediments, loess, etc., in order to enable comparison of
reconstructions from the different archives and to encourage future
interdisciplinary collaborations:
Session CL1.11 (in the Climate session; co-listed in Soil System
Sciences, Geomorphology, and Stratigraphy, Sedimentology &
Palaeontology)

Reconstructing environmental impacts of climate changes in southern
Eurasia during MIS 5 - 2, based on terrestrial and lacustrine archives
Conveners: Daniela Sauer; Valérie Andrieu-Ponel; Stefano Carnicelli
CL1.11 Session Description
A considerable number of palaeo-environmental reconstructions, based
on various types of terrestrial archives, has been elaborated in the
last decades…
…However, there is a vast untapped potential for integrated
reconstruction, combining results from archives and proxies that are
connected and can be highly synergetic.
This session intends to bring together scientists working in the same
time span and region, but on different continental archives and
proxies, in order to enable comparison of reconstructions from these
archives. Moreover, the session aims at initiating new
interdisciplinary contacts and to encourage future integrative
research, crossing disciplinary boundaries.
