3rd International PalaeoArc Conference
August 23, 2022 - August 26, 2022
23-26 August 2022, Rovaniemi, Finland
The 3rd PalaeoArc Conference will be organized in Rovaniemi, northern Finland on 23-26 August 2022. It will gather together Quaternary geologists and researchers who are interested in past environmental processes and changes in the Arctic to understand the present and future development in the Northern Hemisphere. As a research network, PalaeoArc strives to bring together and build bridges between scientists from different countries and career stages, and from different disciplines in Arctic science.
This international conference is an annual meeting of the research network. This year conference will be organized in the Arktikum house in the centre of Rovaniemi town, and it includes technical sessions for oral and poster presentation on 23rd and 25-26th August. In addition, there is one-day middle-conference’s excursion on 25th Aug in Rovaniemi and its surrounding areas. Furthermore, there will be a pre-Field course for students (PhD students are prioritized) from Rovaniemi to the south-west, Tervola-Tornio area. Participation fees can be found from the Registration pages as well as the instructions for the abstract formulation and submission.
PalaeoArc is an international network research programme. The scientific goal of this six-year programme is to understand and explain the climatically-induced environmental changes in the Arctic that have taken place throughout the Quaternary and continue in the present-day. There are four major themes to the programme: 1) the dynamics of Arctic ice sheets, ice shelves and glaciers; 2) the dynamics of high latitude oceans and sea ice; 3) the dynamics of the terrestrial environment and landscape evolution; and 4), the climatic response to, and interaction between, these different parts of the Arctic system. A further underlying rationale for PalaeoArc is that knowledge of past environmental processes and change in the Arctic are key to understanding the present and future of the Arctic, and vice versa.
Important deadlines:
-Abstract submission deadline 8th July
-Final day for registration 31st July
-Conference begins 23rd August
-Pre-field course starts at 21st August
The deadline for abstract submission has been extended to July 17th
