FIELD EXCURSIONS
Cretaceous sections are widespread in northern Brazil. Field trips will

Cretaceous marine outcrop record (Sergipe, Pernambuco-Paraíba and Potiguar
basins).

Post-Conference Field Trips:
6-9 September (PO1): 'Lower Cretaceous Rift Record in Northeastern Brazil:
Reconcavo Basil'
Estimate cost: US$ 400.- Limited to 25 participants.
