paleonet Field trips



Title: Message
Dear Paleoneters:
 
In the AAPG International Meeting held in Barcelona, Spain, in Sept 2003 a list of field trips was offered, some of them dealing with the clastic, turbiditic sediments of south central Pyrenees, and others with the deltaic material of the same area. Since I will be spending several weeks next summer in that area, I am interested in getting the field trips published material, but don't know how, since they are not listed in any available database. I wonder if anybody attended the conference and can give me a hint about the reference(s) for the field guidebook(s) or where to get them from.
 
These are the field trips:
 
Folding, thrusting and syntectonic sedimentation: perspectives from classic localities of the central Pyrenees.
 
The Hecho Group Turbidites from slope to basin plain: facies, stacking patterns, types of systems and diagnostic features
 
Merli reef and Roda sandstone, Palaeocene to Eocene, south-central Pyrenees: architecture and facies of lowstand deltaic wedges and transgressive to highstand carbonate banks, influence of thrust tectonics
 
Pliocene Gilbert detltas of northern Catalunya, France and Spain: relationships with the Messinian fluvial overincision and their use to constrain basin geodynamics
 
I will appreciate any help
