paleonet Paleonet, Call for Session topics Paleontology at EGU 2004 Nice



Title: Paleonet, Call for Session topics Paleontology at EGU
Dear All,

As new president of the  division Stratigraphy, Sedimentology and Paleontology (SSP) of the EGU,European Geosciences Union, I send herewith a call for (Paleontological) Session topics/subjects + convenor names for the  1st EGU  General Assembly   Nice, France, 25 - 30 April 2004 .

Those of you who have been at the EGS-AGU-EUG assembly last 7-11 April, have probably also noticed that among the many (Paleo)climate wiggles, Geophysical modelling and biogeology, our traditional disciplines that formed the core or EUG were fairly underrepresented.

Does this mean that our " classical" disciplines are doomed, or can we make a comeback at the 2004 meeting?

Please let me know your suggestions.

The 2004 'core program' has to be finalized end of May 2003, (see http://www.copernicus.org/EGU/ga/egu04/deadlines_and_milestones.htm)
It will be difficult to add other session topics, apart from Union Sessions, after that deadline.

Let us make an attractive program in 2004!

Sincerely,

Jan Smit
