Description

The next Silicofossil and Palynology Meeting will be held in Florence (Italy) from 15th September to 16th September 2016 and it is entitled "Silicofossil and Palynology Joint Meeting for Advanced Research in Biostratigraphy, Palaeoceanography and Palaeoclimatology". The first day of the conference will be dedicated to silicofossils (radiolarians, diatoms, silicoflagellates, sponges etc.) and the second day to the palynomorphs (pollen, dinoflagellate cysts, spores). The main purpose of the conference is to bring together micropalaeontologists, biologists, sedimentary geochemists and ecologists to analyze and discuss the role of each group in the different research fields. The meeting will consist of sessions for oral and poster presentations and will take place
in the conference venue of Florence University. This venue is located in the center of Florence about 800 metres from "Piazza del Duomo" (Dome Square). Further information on the meeting will be posted on the TMS website in March. Organizing committee: Marco Chiari, Claire Allen (TMS, Silicofossil Group); Manuel Vieira, Matthew Pound (TMS, Palynology Group) and Adele Bertini (Department of Earth Sciences, Florence).
