WORKSHOPS/MEETINGS 2012
One day workshops within
the framework of the main geological meetings in Argentina were organized
for 2012:
1st Workshop of the Group, Argentine Sedimentological
Meeting (AAS), Salta (Central Andes,
NW Arg.), 18th May, 2012.
The meeting provided a good
opportunity to present the skill initiative within the community of Argentine
geologists mainly working in the field of Quaternary stratigraphy and
sedimentology, seeking to increase the interaction between them and the
community of the initial list of South American specialists of the Group.
The aim was to discuss the exchange of information and different proposals
in order to enhance ongoing initiatives (the involvement of early career
scientists, the training of young scientists in fieldworks run by experienced
scientists, the promotion of the attendance and active participation of
active post-graduate students and early-career researchers to the future
meetings of the Group, the promotion of innovative contributions on the
application of new methodological approaches, between others).

2nd
Workshop of the Group, V Argentine Congress on Quaternary and Geomorfology,
Río Cuarto (Pampean Ranges, central Arg.), 3th October, 2012.
The
aim of the meeting was to present and discuss the activities of the Group
within the community of South American geologists working on Geomorphology
and between those working in other areas of the Quaternary research. The
objective of the workshop focused on a series of tasks in order to consolidate
the Group. The analysis of correlation between sedimentary records from
different countries and natural regions of the continent and related to
the reconstruction of environmental responses during the last glacial-interglacial
cycle is one of the key points for discussions.
