International Congress "Palaeozoic Climates"

Aug 25, 2008 - Aug 29, 2008
Fédération universitaire et polytechnique de Lille, FUPL, Lille, Nord Pas de Calais France

Highlights: Climate change is currently one of the most debated and discussed scientifical topics. Ancient climate changes are extremely useful to understand the global changes that we live today. The scientific meeting on Palaeozoic Climates is focused not only on ancient climate and sea-level changes (Ordovician glaciation, end-Devonian extinction, Late alaeozoic glaciation ; greenhouse-icehouse transitions),
but also on their modelisation , their understanding and their impact on the biodiversity.

The Congress will serve as Closing Meeting of the International Geoscience Programme (IGCP) n° 503 ‘Ordovician Palaeogeography and Palaeoclimate’ and is co-sponsored by the IGCP n° 497 ‘The Rheic Ocean : its Origin, Evolution and Correlatives’ and n° 499 ‘Devonian land-sea interaction : evolution of ecosystems and climate’.

Event Profiles: Sponsors: USTL, planet earth, Centre National de la Recherche scientifique, IUGS UNESCO Projects 503, Faculte Libre des Sciences et Technologies, ISA, . . .
