The XIX INQUA Congress has just begun in Nagoya Japan, graced this morning by their majesties the Emperor and Empress of Japan. See the website http://inqua2015.jp for information about the conference and link to the Programme Book (it’s a fairly big PDF file) to see what the scientific sessions and talks are all about.
I have a poster on Wednesday in Session S08 Innovative Development and Applications in Quaternary Geochronology about the portable luminescence reader ‘Rapid age assessment in the Namib Sand Sea using a portable luminescence reader’ and a talk on Saturday at 10.00 in Session T02 Palaeohydrology and fluvial archives (the last talk in the session) ‘Unsaturated zones as archives of past climates: a review of progress in providing a novel proxy for dryland continental regions’.
Many thanks to the QRA for an INQUA Congress Fund award that has helped toward my attendance of this conference.
