Abstract Submission Deadlines:
Thursday, 9 September 2004 (Submissions via the web)
Wednesday, 1 September 2004 (Submissions via the mail)
Please submit abstracts relating to the geology and tectonics of
Northeast Russia for a session that in part will honor the work of the
late Leonid Parfenov.
Session Description:
This session will focus on the geologic and tectonic origins and present
day setting of Northeast Russia and the surrounding continental shelves.
Northeast Russia is perhaps the least understood part of the North
Pacific and Arctic Ocean margins, however, the last several decades have
seen many new studies initiated and now is an appropriate time to review
what has been achieved. We invite papers on all aspects of the geologic
and tectonic evolution of the region, including its contemporary
tectonic setting and the implications of its geologic history for
economic geology.
