Scope:
The centerpiece of this international workshop is to discuss and
review latest scientific achievements on Paleo and Rock Magnetism
(PRM), from fundamental rock magnetic studies to geological, chronological
and environmental applications. Any research subjects are welcome,
while emphasis would be placed on studies dealing with environmental
and geological approaches concerning western Pacific and Asia. The
results of the workshop will enable collaborative individuals, groups
and institutions in Asian countries to begin planning and developing
integrated research projects in various fields of PRM. In addition,
the workshop will provide an opportunity for Asian students and
young researchers to learn what have been and will be going on in
the frontier of PRM. The goal of the workshop is to promote discussions
for establishing an academic network, or an Asian consortium on
PRM, which would be expected to get prepared for the commencement
of the new phase of the Ocean Drilling Program, IODP, in which Asian
Earth science communities are hoped to take initiatives and play
roles of great importance in many scientific aspects.
Location:
The workshop will take place for two days, December 19 and 20 of
this year. The meeting will be held in Center for Advanced Marine
Core Research, Kochi University, which is located in Nankoku City,
Kochi Prefecture in Shikoku Island of southwest Japan. |
