Routing of environmental signals through sedimentary systems and into the stratigraphic record

Session ID#: 85564

Session Description:
Sedimentary deposits are the primary archive for studying and interpreting environmental signals throughout geologic time. To invert for environmental signals such as climatic and tectonic perturbations from strata one must understand how sediment routing systems (SRS) respond to and modulate environmental gradients prior to stratigraphic storage.   Interdisciplinary study of these questions has enormous potential to advance broad understanding of Earth history, which will also help us predict the future. This session aims to bring together insights from the paleoclimate, tectonics, and sedimentary systems communities to promote connections, communication, and collaboration between researchers working at the interface of environmental signals and the stratigraphic record. We welcome submissions detailing recent advances in sedimentary systems dynamics and the preservation of environmental signals, as well as developments in the study of climatic and tectonic signals themselves. We particularly encourage submissions focused on feedbacks and interactions between sedimentary systems and the environmental conditions they record.
