Abstracts

Call for Abstracts - closed -

The invitation for abstract submission to the 12ᵗʰ conference on Climatic and Biotic Events of the Paleogene opened on 21 March 2022.

The conference will highlight new perspectives and results on Paleogene Earth system research through poster presentations and plenary oral sessions. The format will feature ample formal and informal time for poster viewing and discussions, and we anticipate that up to 2/3 of all presentations will be given in poster format. Oral sessions will be organized around a series of themes that the scientific committee has selected to promote presentation and discussion of work at the cutting edge of Paleogene Earth science research (see below).

Abstracts and extended abstracts should be submitted here, but no later than 10 June 2022. Notification of acceptance and a call for registration will follow shortly after that date.

Call for Workshops

If you want to get together with current or new collaborators for workshops during CBEP12, we offer space and time. Please email [Bitte aktivieren Sie Javascript]

The afternoon of Wed, 24 Aug 2022, would provide opportunities to gather in smaller groups for discussing ongoing matters or planning future initiatives.

Located at MARUM – Center for Marine Environmental Sciences of the University of Bremen, the IODP Bremen Core Repository (BCR) holds sediment cores from over 90 expeditions.

The Bremen Core Repository is also the home of the Bighorn Basin Coring Project (BBCP) cores. Explore beyond the Paleogene at CBEP12 and consider a workshop!

Please tell us as soon as possible (but no later than 17 June 2022) - email to [Bitte aktivieren Sie Javascript] - if you plan to organize a small workshop and for how many participants you anticipate to design it!
