STRATI 2015 2nd International Congress on Stratigraphy

July 19-23, 2015, Graz, Austria

This congress is organized for the International Commission on Stratigraphy (ICS) of the International Union of Geological Sciences (IUGS). The congress content covers all topics in stratigraphy with more than 30 technical sessions. The technical program will range from the Archean to the Holocene, across all techniques and applications of stratigraphy and the discoveries that the stratigraphic record reveals about the Earth system. There is also a great set of field trips available. In addition, it will also serve as the primary venue for ICS business, for ICS sub-commissions to meet and awarding of ICS stratigraphy prizes.

This meeting is sponsored by University of Graz, ICS and SEPM. http://strati2015.uni-graz.at/
