GUIDELINES Oral presentation

Oral presentations are 12 minutes + 2 minutes for questions, 1 minute is reserved for setting up the

following presentation (15 minutes in total). “Short orals” in the Open session of sedimentological

studies are 3 mins at maximum.

Please ensure your presentation does not exceed these time limits.

Please prepare your oral presentation in a Power Point (ppt, pptx) or pdf format named

“Lastname_firstname_sessionnumber.ppt(x)/pdf”. The presentation will be displayed on screen by

video projector.

Authors are requested to upload their presentations directly in the slide centre, located in the Earth

Science Department (Room 12) within the half-day before the beginning of the oral block. Assistance

will be available for help. It will be not possible to load the presentations in the meeting rooms, they must be brought to

the speaker ready room to be loaded centrally.

Session Keynote Talks Key-note presentations for each session are 20 minutes plus 9 minutes for questions, 1 minute is

reserved for setting up the following presentation (30 mins in total).

Instruction for preparation are the same as for the standard oral presentations (see above).

Authors should keep in mind that SKTs have been given double time (30’ including questions, instead

than 15’) as they are supposed to illustrate a specific research framing it in the more general context

of the present-day state of the knowledge in their field. The aim is 1) to attract specialists in other

fields that like to have a sense of what is going on in different scientific areas and 2) to stimulate

discussion among colleagues (9’ have been foreseen for that).

POSTER PRESENTATION Poster will be in PORTRAIT format, should not be larger than A0 (118cm height and 84cm width). Any

poster printed in landscape or larger than A0 may not be shown. Poster display time is 08:30 to 19:00

daily in Museum of Classical Arts but poster session is from 17 pm to 19 pm, (on Friday from 16 pm to 18

pm), according to the session program. The authors are expected to be available for presentation next to

their poster during poster sessions.

Presenters have access to the Museo di Arte Classica from 8.30 am each morning and they are

responsible of setup of their poster in the morning. Assistance will be available for help and to provide

fixing material. Posters should be removed by authors by the end of the session.

CODE of CONDUCT The IAS (International Association of Sedimentologists) is a premier, international scientific association dedicated to the

publication, discussion, and interchange of research results in sedimentary geology. The purpose of the IAS Code of

Conduct is to ensure that all activities sponsored by the IAS are in agreement with the generally accepted ethics rules and

the mission of IAS. Leading principles are honesty, carefulness, transparency, openness, independence, responsibility, and

democracy. IAS meetings, which are open to IAS and non-IAS members including those interested in and from neighbouring

disciplines, are among the most respected scientific meetings in the global field of sedimentology. IAS-sponsored meetings

foster the exchange of scientific ideas through respectful and open dialogue. Together with the IAS, the meeting organizers

are committed to providing a safe, productive, and welcoming environment for all participants. All meeting participants,

including but not limited to attendees, speakers, volunteers, exhibitors, staff, service providers, are expected to abide by

the IAS Code of Conduct. This Code of Conduct applies to all IAS meeting-related events.

IAS considers the neglect of these rules as being equal to a scientific misconduct.

• Treat all participants with equal respect and consideration.

• Critique ideas rather than individuals.

• Avoid personal attacks directed toward other participants and organizations.

• Be mindful of your surroundings and of your fellow participants. Alert event organizers if you notice a potentially

dangerous situation, unsafe behaviour or someone in distress.

• Respect the rules and policies of the host country, meeting venue, hotels, contracted facility, and/or any other venue.

• Permission must be sought from the presenter or author to take photographs, movies or to undertake other forms of

recording of any presentation.

Milano-Bicocca, Dept. of Earth and Environmental Sciences, Italy) Carbonate depositional systems record changes in architecture, geometry, texture, lithofacies, and biogenic components through time. Carbonate producers are living organisms with precise energetic and environmental requirements, therefore climatic and oceanographic variations, driven by geology, exert a strong influence over them. This is especially true for neritic systems located at the boundary between the tropical and temperate realms, which are very sensitive to climate belts dynamics through geological time and to sea-level oscillations. The Earth went through major environmental revolutions during the Cenozoic, shifting from a “greenhouse” to an “icehouse” world and witnessing dramatic oceanographic events. Several global changes affected the functioning and the relative dominance of the major carbonate factories (coral reefs, large benthic foraminifera banks, rhodolith beds and algal build-ups) that recorded in detail the temporal and spatial variation of these events. Unveiling this natural archive is of paramount importance for understanding and modelling the future of our planet under the expected consequences of the ongoing climate change. This session aims at offering an overview of the Cenozoic environmental evolution of our planet by presenting a series of case histories from a suite of diverse carbonate factories, geological contexts and time, to depict their inception, evolution and demise.

Session Keynote Talk (SKT) –Wednesday, 11 – Room 11 ESD – 9:00 – 9:30 am- “Cenozoic carbonate factories: global distributional trends of carbonate platforms” Dr. Julien Michel, Dr. Alexandre Lettéron, Dr. Cyprien Lanteaume, Prof. Jean Borgomano, Dr. Jeroen Kenter

1.B Open Session on Carbonates & Bioconstructions Stephen Lokier- [email protected] (Bangor University, UK); Laura Tomassetti (Earth Science Department, Sapienza University of Rome, Italy) This Open Session invites contributions from general and interdisciplinary topics within the diverse fields of Carbonates (marine and continental) and Bioconstructions. The session provides an opportunity to present studies that do not sit comfortably within any of the research topics covered by the special themes. Session Keynote Talk (SKT) – Tuesday, 10 – Room Aula Magna – 12:00 – 12:30 pm - “Marine cementation in Quaternary reefs: a quantitative approach“ Prof. Eberhard Gischler

1.C Understanding carbonate factories through

paleoecological and geochemical signals Guillem Mateu-Vicens - [email protected] (Dept. of Biology, University of the Balearic Islands, Palma de Mallorca, Spain); Marco Brandano (Earth Science Department, Sapienza University of Rome, Italy); Juan Ignacio (Baceta, Department of Stratigraphy and Paleontology, The University of the Basque Country, Spain) Carbonate factories are possibly dependent by many environmental factors such as carbonate saturation, biological metabolism, biologically-controlled and -induced carbonate precipitation, loci of accumulation and preservation. How the conditions for a carbonate factory efficiency can been achieved and how the conditions have varied with evolutionary history, atmosphere and ocean chemistry, tectonic plate configurations, paleoclimate, and other factors will be discussed in the session. Contributions and case histories dealing on facies and geochemical characterization of carbonate factories from Paleozoic to Modern carbonate platforms are welcome. Session Keynote Talk (SKT) – Friday, 13 – Room 11 ESD – 08:30 – 09:00 am- “Why do carbonate rocks exist?” Prof. Luis Pomar, Prof. Pamela Hallock, Dr.Guillem Mateu Vicens

1.D The carbonate platform record of extreme

palaeoenvironmental events Mariano Parente - [email protected] (University of Naples Federico II, Italy); Sabrina Amodio (University of Naples Parthenope, Italy); Helmut Weissert (ETH Zürich, Switzerland) Shallow-water carbonate platforms provide unique windows to Earth’s geological past. These environments document the response of neritic biocalcifiers to severe perturbations of biogeochemical cycles and host a precious record of carbonate-associated proxies of past ocean conditions. In this session we invite contributions that employ traditional and novel approaches to decipher the palaeonvironmental archive of shallow-water carbonates. Within this broad topic, contributions dealing with stratigraphic intervals encompassing extreme events, like the end-Permian, end-Triassic

and end-Cretaceous events, the Mesozoic OAE sand the Cenozoic hyperthermals are particularly encouraged. Session Keynote Talk (SKT) – Wednesday, 11 – Room Partenone– 03:30 – 04:00 pm - “How healthy carbonate platforms react to extreme paleoenvironmental disturbances - Insights from the Cretaceous Arabian Platform?” Prof. Volker Vahrenkamp

1.E 3D modelling of carbonates: techniques and applications

at different scales and processes L. Tomassetti - [email protected] (Earth Science Department, Sapienza University of Rome, Italy); M. Franceschi (Department of Geosciences, University of Padua, Italy); B. Bádenas (Department of Earth Science, University of Zaragoza, Spain); S. Tomás (Institute of Geoscience, University of Potsdam, Germany); J. Kenter (Total, France) 3D modelling holds great potential for the quantitative study of carbonates at different scales and its application ranges, for example, from volume assessment, calculation of growth rates and distribution of facies and heterogeneities to forward modelling of sedimentation and diagenetic processes. Several methods (e.g. seismic, photogrammetry, LIDAR, drone and hyperspectral imaging, CT scanning) provide an invaluable and increasingly accessible source of three-dimensional information and software for data management and interpretation is becoming increasingly sophisticated. However, integration of datasets through efficient workflows as well as adequate data-sharing platforms and standardization of formats are still underdeveloped. This session seeks contributions of 3D modelling examples across different scales and within the broad field of carbonate sedimentology to capture the range of applications, the current state of the art on workflows including those for sharing data sets and, finally, stimulate discussion on synergies and new directions to improve the understanding of carbonate sedimentary systems. Session Keynote Talk (SKT) – Friday, 13 – Room 1 ESD – 03:00 – 03:30 pm - “Best modelling approaches on a carbonate reservoir, a case study from the Majella Mountain, Central Apennines, Italy” Dr. Fabio Trippetta, Mr. Davide Durante, Dr. Lorenzo Lipparini, Mr. Alessandro Romi

2.A Estuarine systems: from morphodynamics to

stratigraphy Massimiliano Ghinassi - [email protected]; D’Alpaos Andrea, Dr. Alvise Finotello (Department of Geosciences, University of Padua, Italy)

Estuaries are delicate coastal environments, which evolve under the intertwined effect of hydrological, chemical and biological processes. In the past, the complex interaction among these processes promoted the accumulation of thick sedimentary successions, which can be of relevant economic importance (i.e. hydrocarbon reservoirs). Today, the morphodynamics of coastal environments occurs under the influence of rapid climate changes and anthropogenic pressures, which make imminent evolution of estuarine systems poorly predictable. Understanding estuarine morphodynamics and related deposits has therefore remarkable social and economic implications, both in terms of landscape management and subsurface exploration. Exploiting the up-to-date knowledge about estuarine morphodynamics, this session aims at reconciling results from field studies, mathematical modelling and laboratory investigations in order to discuss: i) principles to investigate estuarine sedimentary products; ii) models to predict evolution of estuarine systems. This session aims at bringing together researchers working on modern geomorphology and ancient deposits, as well as researchers undertaking physical and numerical modelling approaches. Presentations are welcome on all aspects of estuarine systems: hydrology, hydrodynamics, morphological characterisation, morphodynamics, sediment transport, stratigraphy, impact of climate change and sea-level rise. Session Keynote Talk (SKT) – Wednesday, 11 – Room 1 ESD – 02:00 – 02:30 pm - “How tides and rivers shape levees and crevasses: Holocene overbank phases of the Old Rhine river, the Netherlands” Dr. Harm Jan

Pierik, Mr. Jelle Moree, Mrs. Lonneke Roelofs, Mr. Marcio Boechat Albernaz, Dr. Antoine Wilbers, Mr. Jasper Leuven, Dr.Tjalling de Haas, Prof. Maarten Kleinhans

2.B Along-strike variability in modern and ancient coastal

and shelfal depositional environments Miquel Poyatos Moré [email protected] (Department of Geosciences, University of Oslo, Norway); Ernesto Schwarz (Centro de Investigaciones Geológicas, Universidad Nacional de La Plata-CONICET, Argentina);


Pag.15

Alessandro Amorosi (Department of Biological, Geological and Environmental Sciences, University of Bologna, Italy); Janok Bhattacharya (School of Geography and Earth Sciences, McMaster University, Canada) Basin margin development and the timing of sediment transport to the oceans are strongly influenced by the position and character of paralic systems relative to the changing physiography of the coastline, and the relative dominance of depositional processes occurring along its adjacent shelf. Here, the dynamic interaction of numerous factors results in a complex heterogeneity of nearshore deposits, observable both in modern, ancient and high-resolution seismic datasets. This complexity has been generally well studied along depositional dip profiles, but the lateral (along-strike) variability of sedimentary systems from the shoreline to the shelf is less understood, possibly due to the difficulty in recognizing sub-seismic lateral facies changes, and the absence of well-documented large-scale outcrop examples. Consequently, the lateral variability of nearshore sedimentary systems and its resulting complex stratigraphic expression are still poorly constrained. In this session we invite contributions from both modern and ancient studies of coastal to shelfal depositional environments, which might help improving our understanding about the complex interaction between numerous factors in this segment of source-to-sink systems. The session aims to integrate detailed studies of internal bed-scale facies architecture with larger-scale plan-view analysis, tracking along-strike geomorphological changes and controls in the resulting laterally-variable stratigraphic record of these system. Session Keynote Talk (SKT) – Friday, 13 – Room Blue3 – 12:30 – 01:00 pm - “Time-stratigraphy in point-sourced deltas” Dr. Janok Bhattacharya, Dr. Andrew Miall, Mr. Jeremy Gabriel, Mr. Curtis Ferron, Mr. Nicolas Randazzo

2.C Aeolian sediments and coastal systems Lars Clemmensen- [email protected] (University of Copenhagen) and Ken Pye (Kenneth Pye Associates Ltd., Reading, UK). The session would cover both modern and ancient environments. It would be timely to have papers looking at the linkages between climate (including windiness) and sea level change, aeolian sedimentation, dune mobility and stabilization phases, including carbonate-rich dunes (aeolianites), siliciclastic dunes and paleosol sequences. Session Keynote Talk (SKT) – Tuesday, 10 – Room Odeion – 04:30 – 05:00 pm - “A 5,000 Year Record of Coastal Dune Evolution along the Eastern Shore of Lake Michigan in the North American Great Lakes: The Relationship of Geography, Lake-Level Fluctuations, and Sand Supply” Dr.

3.A Interplays of hydrodynamic processes in shallow marine

environments Romain Vaucher- [email protected] (CICTERRA, National University of Córdoba, Argentina); Marcello Gugliotta (Estuary Research Center -EsReC, Shimane University, Japan) Do purely wave, tide, and fluvial environments in shallow-marine settings exist? In the last decade, an increased number of studies referring to “hybrid sedimentary systems” or “mixed-energy system” have been published. These studies focus on the interplay of at least two of the three main processes (i.e., river, tide and wave) controlling sedimentation and depositional architecture in coastal to shallow-marine settings. This led to the identification of hybrid sedimentary structures generated as the result of wave-tide and river-tide process interactions, whereas less attention has been paid to wave-river ones. More studies are required to refine our conceptual models of facies and how interplays influence the sedimentation from the genesis of bedforms towards the overall geometry of the systems. This session aspires to group research exhibiting data from modern and ancient marginal marine environments subjected to process interplay and other studies on this topic based on numerical modelling and flume experiments. Session Keynote Talk (SKT) – Tuesday, 10 – Room Blue2– 03:30 – 04:00 pm - “Sedimentation in shallow-marine environments – a product of mixed-energy processes in four dimensions” Prof. Shahin Dashtgard

4.A Deep-water channels: Morphology, architecture, flow

processes and sedimentation Chenglin Gong [email protected] (College of Geosciences, China University of Petroleum, Beijing, China); Peter Talling (Departments of Earth Sciences and Geography, Durham University, UK), Michele Rebesco (National Institute of Oceanography and Experimental Geophysics- OGS, Italy); Matthieu Cartigny (Departments of Earth Sciences and Geography, Durham University, UK); Maarten Heijnen (National Oceanography Centre, University of Southampton Waterfront Campus, UK); Peng Hu (Ocean College, Zhejiang University, Zhejiang, China)

Deep-water channels in either marine or lacustrine have been the focus of extensive research since their discovery in the early 20th century. This is largely because they: (1) play a significant role in shaping and building continental margins; (2) are prodigious features traversing hundreds or even thousands of km of the seafloor; (3) serve as the major conduits for the delivery of large quantities of nutrients, pollutants, carbon, and sediments into deep-water sites; (4) preserve critical paleoclimatic and paleoceanographic information; and (5) form major subsurface oil and gas reservoirs worldwide. Despite their significance and widespread occurrence, deep-water channels remain a key research challenge in sedimentological community, because of their three- dimensional complexity and diversity. We hope the proposed session will facilitate open and lively discussion towards an advanced and deeper understanding of all aspects of deep-water channels in either marine and lacustrine basins. We solicit presentations that explore morphology, architecture, flow dynamics, and genesis of deep-water channels, and welcome studies that may include, but not limited to: How do deep-water channels work; including how they are formed and maintained, internal flow processes, and how they evolve. Morphology, architecture, genesis, and reservoir characterization of deep-water channels in either marine or lacustrine basins. How submarine channels host and influence ecological communities, and their globally important role for organic carbon transfer and burial. New ways to study deep-water channels, including numerical simulations, physical experiments, and direct field observations of active events on the seafloor. Session Keynote Talk (SKT) – Tuesday, 10 – Room Blue1 – 01:30 – 02:00 pm - “A unique channel-levee-lobe system in a modern deep-water carbonate slope (Great Bahama Bank)” Dr. Emmanuelle Ducassou, Ms. Joanna Lapuyade, Dr. Melanie Principaud, Dr.Ludivine Chabaud, Dr. Vincent Hanquiez, Prof. Thierry Mulder

4.B Linking deep water depositional processes, facies and

stratigraphy Jörg Lang [email protected] (Institute of Geology, Leibniz University Hannover, Hannover, Germany); Juan J. Fedele (ExxonMobil Upstream Research Company, Houston, USA); David C. Hoyal (ExxonMobil Upstream Research Company, Houston, USA); Roberto Tinterri (Earth Sciences Unit, University of Parma, Parma, Italy); Timothy M. Demko (ExxonMobil Upstream Research Company, Houston, USA); Fabiano Gamberi (Institute of Marine Sciences - National Research Council, Bologna, Italy) Understanding sedimentary processes is crucial to comprehend the sediment dispersal and the depositional record of deep water systems. Recently, new insights into flow processes, based on direct flow measurements and experiments, have led to revised interpretations of depositional processes in deep water systems. Concomitantly, investigations of the seafloor have contributed detailed images of geomorphic elements in the different deep water environments. Refined process-based facies models, linking depositional processes to stratigraphy, have thus been developed, also thanks to the contributions by outcrop and seismic data studies. Nevertheless, many important aspects of deep water sedimentary systems and their interrelations remain poorly understood. Our knowledge, however, can be improved especially through the integration of results from different research approaches. This session aims to bring together contributions on observations from modern systems (flow monitoring-seafloor bathymetry), outcrops, seismic data and experiments (physical-numerical) to deal with these issues. We seek contributions addressing the behaviour of sediment-gravity flows, focusing on: subcritical vs. supercritical flows, surging vs. sustained flows, transitional-hybrid events and interactions between flows and basin morphology. At a larger scale we aim at integrating different views regarding: autogenic organization vs. allogenic forcing, intrabasinal vs. extrabasinal controls, oceanographic forcing, sediment-feeding systems, sediment supply, tectonics and sequence stratigraphy.

5.A Non-marine carbonates: from the geological record to

present-day processes in continental settings Giovanna Della Porta - [email protected] (University of Milan, Earth Sciences Department, Milan, Italy); Enrico Capezzuoli (University of Florence, Earth Sciences Department, Florence, Italy); Mike Rogerson (University of Hull, School of Environmental Sciences, Hull, UK); Ezher Tagliasacchi (Pamukkale University, Turkey)

Pag.16

Non-marine carbonates form in a variety of depositional settings such as lakes, rivers, hydrothermal vents, caves and soils, representing a significant component of terrestrial sedimentary basins and useful proxies of palaeoenvironmental conditions. Understanding modern physico-chemical and microbially mediated processes of non-marine carbonate precipitation helps constraining biogeochemical cycles and investigating the geological past in terms of changing depositional environments, hydrology and climate. A robust understanding of what features of a sediment are uniquely microbial is also a critical requirement of dawn of life studies on Earth and astro-biological research. This session aims to get better insights into the variety of non-marine carbonate facies and the abiotic/biotic control on processes of carbonate and associated minerals precipitation. We welcome contributions investigating fossil and modern non-marine carbonates through multi-disciplinary approaches highlighting their variability across different depositional environments and the biological, environmental and physico-chemical factors controlling their formation, fabrics, accumulation rates and spatial distribution. Session Keynote Talk (SKT) – Friday, 13 – Room 11 ESD – 02:30 – 03:00 pm - “Tufa and microbialites in non-marine carbonate settings: a multi- scale approach” Dr. Concha Arenas Abad, Mrs. Leticia Martin-Bello, Dr. Francisco Javier Pérez-Rivarés, Mrs. Nerea Santos-Bueno

5.B Palaeosols: a treasure chest to understand the

sedimentary processes in continental realm Giorgio Basilici- [email protected] (Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Brazil); Marco Benvenuti (University of Florence, Italy); Stefano Carnicelli (University of Florence, Italy); Isabelle Cojan (Centre de Géosciences, Mines ParisTech, France); André Marconato (Universidade Federal de Ouro Preto, Brazil); María Sol Raigemborn (Centro de Investigaciones Geológicas, Universidad Nacional de La Plata, Argentina); Augusto Varela (CONICET – Universidad Nacional de La Plata, Argentina) Palaeosol are constantly present in continental sedimentary successions, from the Archean to the Present. Their occurrence can be extremely variable: from almost completely absent, where high sedimentation rate or extreme palaeoenvironmental conditions acted, to comprise more than 80% of the thickness in many other sedimentary successions. Nevertheless, the attention of who studies the ancient continental sedimentary successions is not always proportional to the occurrence of palaeosols. Although since the 80s the scientific consideration of palaeosols certainly increased, studies focusing palaeosols are not common in scientific papers and even more uncommon are studies linking sedimentary processes and palaeosols. Notwithstanding, palaeosols represent in continental sedimentary succession, a data source probably much more efficient than sediments. Indeed, if the deposits are commonly yielded by rapid and paroxysmal processes, often associated to abnormal conditions of the depositional environment, the palaeosols do not follow these rules. A well-developed palaeosol forms in more than 1000yr; during this period this is an open-system, that can record all the environmental conditions and changes in the atmosphere and just beneath its surface. By proposing this session we want stimulate the sedimentologists to present whichever communication whose focus are the palaeosols and/or their relationships with the sedimentary environments. Session Keynote Talk (SKT) – Wednesday, 11 – Room 8 ESD – 02:00 – 02:30 pm - “Evidence of Ediacaran life on land preserved in the oldest pedogenic siderites” Dr. Maciej Bojanowski, Ms. Magdalena Goryl, Dr. Barbara Kremer, Dr. Beata Marciniak-Maliszewska, Prof. Jan Środoń

5.C Modern lakes and lacustrine sediments as archives of

geological environmental change and anthropogenic impact Marta Marchegiano [email protected] (University of Geneva, Switzerland); Domenico Cosentino (Roma Tre University, Italy); Elsa Gliozzi (Roma Tre University, Italy); Daniel Ariztegui (University of Geneva, Switzerland); Laura Sadori (Sapienza University of Rome, Italy) Lacustrine sediments can provide outstanding high-resolution and continuous archives of climate change, environmental evolution, anthropogenic impact, and tectonics. Only using a multiproxy approach is possible to disentangle the often intertwined biogeochemical and/or physical processes triggered by these phenomena. We target novel approaches and new exploration fields for the study of lacustrine systems, including modern limnology. Thus, we encourage oral and posters contributions that present basic and applied research on all aspects of both modern and ancient lake systems assembling a wide range of geophysical, sedimentological, geochemical, biological remains, and geomicrobiological datasets. Numerical models on lacustrine hydrodynamics are also welcome. Session Keynote Talk (SKT) – Friday, 13 – Room 1 ESD – 09:00 – 09:30 am - “Organic-rich rhythmites in southern Gondwana: Early Jurassic proxies of lake processes and climate” Prof. Emese Bordy, Dr. Lara Sciscio, Ms. T'Nielle Haupt, Mr. Akhil Rampersadh, Ms. Maposholi Mokhethi, Ms. Miengah Abrahams, Mr. Adrian Bunge

5.D New advances in Lacustrine sedimentology Pingsheng WEI (Research institute of petroleum exploration & development-Northwest (NWGI), PetroChina, Lanzhou, China); Huaqing LIU (Research institute of petroleum exploration & development-Northwest (NWGI), PetroChina, Lanzhou, China); Shuxin PAN - [email protected] (Research institute of petroleum exploration & development-Northwest (NWGI), PetroChina, Lanzhou, China); Carlos Zavala (Universidad Nacional del Sur, Buenos Aires, Argentina) Lacustrine basins are important oil & gas-productive areas of the world. In recent years, lacustrine sedimentology has made great achievement in term of source-sink system analysis, shallow-water delta, beachbar, deep-water sediments, fine-grained deposits, lacustrine carbonate, events deposits, deep reservoir forming mechanism and seismic sedimentology. Even so, problems and challenges of the lacustrine sedimentology are widely existed and needed to carry out innovation. The main idea of this theme is innovation and new exploration fields of lacustrine deposits. Specific subthemes may be referenced but not limited to the following eight aspects. Subthemes: - The gravity flow of lacustrine basins (hyperpycnal flows, MTDs, debris flow,

sublacustrine landslide, turbidity flow) -Fine grained deposition and unconventional resources -Beach and bar of lacustrine basins -Shallow-water delta - Lacustrine carbonate, mixed deposits and reservoir - Modern lacustrine analogues -Lacustrine hydrodynamics (waves, alongshore currents, bottom currents)and related

sediments - Other new field of exploration and development Session Keynote Talk (SKT) – Tuesday, 10 – Room 1 ESD – 04:30 – 05:00pm - “Hydrodynamics of lacustrine hyperpycnal flows: lessons from the Lower Cretaceous Rayoso Formation, Neuquén Basin, Argentina” Prof.

5.E Sedimentary processes, stratal architecture and

stratigraphy of alluvial systems

Ghinassi M. - [email protected](University of Padua, Italy); Colombera L. (University of Leeds, UK); Fielding C. (University of Nebraska–Lincoln, USA), Mancini M. (CNR- IGAG, Rome) Understanding of alluvial sedimentary processes and investigations of how genetically related alluvial units are organized in the stratigraphic record are key matters in sedimentology. Although remarkable advances in our understanding of alluvial systems have been made over the past decades, there still remains scope for a more refined investigation of alluvial deposition. This session calls for contributions on recent and on-going advances in the field of alluvial sedimentology, with specific emphasis on studies linking sedimentary processes and morphodynamics with related products in the rock record. Contributions are invited on topics that include, but are not limited to, the following: linking modern alluvial systems to their ancient preserved counterparts; novel data collection methods; facies models for alluvial systems; numerical modelling and laboratory experiments on alluvial processes and stratigraphy; interactions of alluvial systems with other environments, including lakes, deserts, deltas, estuaries, shorelines; interaction between alluvial deposition and tectonics. Session Keynote Talk (SKT) – Wednesday, 11 – Room Odeion – 04:00 – 04:30 pm - “Why so sceptical? The role of animals in fluvial sediment dynamics” Prof. Stephen Rice

6.A Stratigraphic controls on the geochemical and fossil

record Silvia Danise- [email protected] (Department of Earth Sciences, University of Florence, Florence, Italy); Emilia Jarochowska (GeoZentrumNordbayern, Friedrich-Alexander-University Erlangen-Nuremberg, Erlangen, Germany); Rute Coimbra (GeoBioTec, Departamento de Geociências, Universidade de Aveiro, Portugal & MARE, Departamento de Ciências da Terra, Universidade de Coimbra, Portugal) The intrinsically complex nature of sedimentary dynamics, both in time and space, exert a fundamental control on the abundance, variety and quality of information engraved in deep-time geological records. Integration of basin analysis and sequence stratigraphy with such areas as palaeobiology, biostratigraphy and geochemistry provides a powerful, interdisciplinary approach to reconstruct past environmental scenarios and biodiversity dynamics. As pointed out by the new discipline of stratigraphic palaeobiology, patterns observed in the fossil record can largely be predicted based on the stratigraphic architecture, e.g. the distribution of hiatuses and condensation surfaces. Stratigraphic palaeobiology also offers analytical tools allowing to account for these controls and the same tools can be equally applied to geochemical data. In fact, subaerial exposure, phases of non‐deposition, erosion, reworking and bypass of sediments strongly impact also the geochemical record and cannot be overlooked. In this session, we aim at

bringing together sedimentologists, palaeobiologists and geochemists to demonstrate how sequence stratigraphy can be employed as a common information framework in all these fields, and foster collaborations towards a better understanding of the links between past biotic and palaeoenvironmental changes. Session Keynote Talk (SKT) – Tuesday, 10 – Room 11 ESD – 02:00 – 02:30 pm - “Interpreting the impact of local depositional controls on carbon isotope values from shallow marine carbonates” Dr. Amanda Oehlert, Dr. Peter Swart

6.B Technological and conceptual advances in sequence

stratigraphy. New achievements and open questions Domenico Ridente - [email protected] (CNR-IGAG, Rome, Italy); Bilal U. Haq (Smithsonian Institution, Washington D.C., USA), Christian Gorini (UPMC Sorbonne Universitès, Paris, France), Adriano Viana (Petrobras, Brazil) Sequence stratigraphy developed as a new model in stratigraphy after the integration of the Exxon seismic-stratigraphic method with genetic concepts linking seismic attributes to sedimentary dynamics. The sequence stratigraphy model has been the focus of debates and proposals for nomenclatural and conceptual revision, owing to the increasing scenarios and different scale of application, each with its own practical requirements and specific key features as to the role of sediment supply and sea level in controlling sequence architecture. Methodological and conceptual advances driven by new technologies (such as 3D seismic geomorphology) have greatly improved high-resolution geophysical and subsurface studies, allowing, to some degree, to reduce the gap in scale and details compared with facies-based studies in the field. In addition, recent development of satellite imaging and the use of drone technology in wide ranging surveys, may provide means for conceiving field analysis from the perspective of regional, seismic-based geometric criteria. In this Session we welcome multi-scale and multi-approach studies that provide methodological and conceptual insights that may contribute in addressing open questions and enhance the development of sequence stratigraphy as an analytical method and an interpretative stratigraphic model Session Keynote Talk (SKT) – Friday, 13 – Room Blue2 – 09:30 – 10:00am - “Tectonics and Eustasy’s roles in producing the stratigraphic record “ Dr.

7.A Marine microbialites: a record of bio-sedimentary

processes through time Marcello Natalicchio - [email protected] (University of Torino, Italy); Edoardo Perri (University of Cosenza, Italy); Francesco Dela Pierre (University of Torino, Italy); Tobias Himmler (Geological Survey of Norway); Maurice Tucker (University of Bristol, England) İsmail Ömer Yılmaz (Middle East Technical University, Turkey) Microbialites are fascinating organo-sedimentary deposits that are present throughout the entire geological marine record. These deposits are typified by a wide spectrum of particular morphologies, in a variety of lithologies (carbonate, clastic, evaporite, phosphorite), and occur in a wide range of marine settings, including shallow and deep water environments as well as in extreme sedimentary environments (i.e. hypersaline and hydrothermal). The interest in microbialites from the scientific community and industry has increased exponentially in recent years because of their significance in unravelling the evolutionary history of life on Earth (and virtually on other planets), and their role in petroleum systems, as source and reservoir rocks. This session encourages contributions on any aspect of modern and fossil marine microbialites, especially where information is coming from different disciplines: sedimentology, geochemistry and geomicrobiology. Session Keynote Talk (SKT) – Wednesday, 11 – Room Partenone – 09:00 – 09:30am - “The precipitation of calcium carbonate by viruses - the new frontier in sedimentology” Dr. Mirosław Słowakiewicz, Dr. Andrzej Borkowski, Mr. Marcin Syczewski, Mr. Filip Owczarek, Dr. Anna Sikora, Mrs. Anna Detman, Prof. Edoardo Perri, Prof. Maurice Tucker

7.B When volcanoes meet the environment Andrea Di Capua - [email protected] (CNR – IDPA, Italy); Gabor Kereszturi (Massey University, New Zealand) Primary and secondary volcaniclastic processes represent the crossroad between volcanological and sedimentological processes, and their influence on the environment is largely recognized. Nevertheless, a gap still exists between sedimentological and volcanological approaches to the same problems. This session aims to bring together researchers working on volcanic or volcanically influenced terrains to unravel the generation, transport and settling of volcanic particles through the geological time in different environments, in order to narrow this gap.

We invite presentations that include, but are not limited to, 1) field-based description and interpretation of volcanoclastic sediments and related processes both in modern and ancient realms, 2) provenance studies that highlight the influence of volcanic activity on sedimentary basins, 3) studies on the characterization of physico-chemical processes that lead to the generation and weathering of volcaniclastic particles through time. This session is co-sponsored by the Commission on Volcanogenic Sediment of the International Association of Volcanology and Chemistry of the Earth's Interior (IAVCEI).

7.C Sedimentary processes on high-latitude continental

margins Renata G. Lucchi - [email protected] (National Institute of Oceanography and Experimental Geophysics - OGS, Italy); Florence Colleoni, National Institute of Oceanography and Experimental Geophysics - OGS, Italy); Forwick Matthias (Department of Geology, UiT The Arctic University of Norway); Karsten Gohl (Alfred Wegener Institute, Bremerhaven, Germany); Robert D. Larter (British Antarctic Survey, Cambridge, UK); Colm O’Cofaig (Department of Geography, University of Durham, UK) The study of sedimentary processes in polar areas contributes to reconstructions of climate, environmental and oceanographic conditions, as well as ice-sheet dynamics on high-latitude continental margins. Such studies can be based on the integration of acoustic data, including swath bathymetry and sub-bottom profiles, seismic data, as well as multi-proxy analyses of sediment cores including drill cores. The rapid response of the polar areas to the recent global climate warming is predicted to accelerate sea-level rise, leading to strong environmental and socio-economic impacts. A thorough knowledge about mechanisms forcing climate change in the past is an essential tool to understand the present state and to predict the future development of the large ice sheets in Antarctica and on Greenland in a geological context. Enhancing this knowledge requires an integrated effort of the scientific community. The aim of this multi-disciplinary session is to bring together researchers working on northern and southern high-latitude continental margins, investigating the sedimentary processes associated with past and present ice-sheets dynamics and paleo-oceanographic effects on the marine sedimentation from both observational and modelling approaches. Session Keynote Talk (SKT) – Wednesday, 11 – Room Blue1– 09:30– 10:00am - “Modern ice shelf facies and Early Holocene counterparts in Petermann Fjord and Northern Nares Strait” Dr. Anne Jennings, Dr. Brendan Reilly, Prof. John Andrews, Dr. Kelly Hogan, Dr. Maureen Walczak, Dr. Joseph Stoner, Prof. Alan Mix, Prof. Martin Jakobsson

7.D Integrated approaches to the recognition of contourite

depositional systems Michele Rebesco [email protected](National Institute of Oceanography and Experimental Geophysics - OGS, Italy); Eleonora Martorelli (CNR-IGAG, Rome, Italy); David van Rooij (Uni Ghent, Belgium); Javier Hernandez-Molina (Royal Hull University London, UK); Giancarlo Davoli (ENI, Italy) Bottom currents (BCs) and contourite depositional systems (CDSs) are important component of deep ocean basins and continental margins. The last decades have seen significant progresses in the characterization of CDSs and role of bottom currents on sedimentary and geomorphic processes. In order to better address the relationships between oceanographic processes, morpho-sedimentary processes and CDSs development further improvements are, however, still necessary. In this regard, a multidisciplinary approach among many disciplines (sedimentology, seismic stratigraphy, biostratigraphy, geochemistry, physical and biological oceanography, numerical modeling, etc) using high-quality datasets may provide new significant insights. Contributions from modern and ancient environments (both ancient deposits and outcrops) addressing CDSs nature (e.g., architecture, morphology, stratigraphy, lithology, habitats), mechanisms responsible for their formation and interplay with other processes (e.g., turbidites vs contourites, hemipelagites vs contourites) are welcome. In particular, major topics will be: 1) Link between bottom currents and contourite sedimentation at different scales: a) Small scale: sedimentological records (e.g., facies, drift accumulation, erosion-reworking) and site survey data (current meter measurements oceanographic transects) showing variability of BCs b) Large scale: distribution of CDSs and numerical simulations and circulation models (oceanic and regional) 2) CDSs in the sequence stratigraphic framework

3) Relevance for slope stability. Session Keynote Talk (SKT) – Wednesday, 11 – Room Blue1– 10:30– 11:00am - “Temporal and spatial variability of mixed turbidite–contourite systems” Dr. Nicole Bayliss, Dr. Juan Fedele, Mr. Eric Wildermuth, Mr. Kyle Basler-Reeder, Mr. Samuel Plitzuweit, Dr. Timothy Demko, Dr. David Hoyal

7.E Modern and ancient straits and seaways: sedimentary

processes, hydrodynamics, facies models and perspectives Sergio G. Longhitano - [email protected] (University of Basilicata, Potenza, Italy); Francesco Latino Chiocci (Sapienza University of Rome, Italy); Valentina M. Rossi(University of Bergen, Norway); Domenico Chiarella (Royal Holloway University, London, UK); Namik Çağatay (Istanbul Technical University, Ayazaga, Turkey); Gemma Ercilla (Spanish National Research Council, Barcelona, Spain) Tidal and non-tidal straits and seaways are challenging geological areas governed by current amplification generated by local oceanographic narrowing and providing uncommon sedimentary conditions. Although the growing interest on such systems due to their potential for production of renewable energy, strategic role for the transport industry, climatic impact on the interconnected basins and many more, straits and seaways lack accurate depositional models predicting their space-time sedimentary dynamics and evolution. This session is primarily aimed at defining the state of knowledge on the variety of sedimentary processes and distinctive depositional signatures of these systems. Secondly, it wants to provide a chance for stimulating discussions, idea exchanges and joint collaborations between sedimentologists, marine geologists, geophysicists, oceanographers and other researchers involved in the investigation of modern and ancient cases. After the opening of the key note of Robert W. Dalrymple (Queen’s University, Canada), talks and posters focused on recent breakthroughs, theoretical hydro-sedimentary modeling, interplay between tidal or oceanographic currents and other strait-related processes will be welcome. We also encourage presentations aimed at the re-examination of the recognition criteria of ancient straits in the rock record, the creation of static or dynamic facies-based models, and the discussion of present uncertainties or still unsolved aspects. Session Keynote Talk (SKT) – Friday, 13 – Room Blue1– 02:00 – 02:30pm - “Morphology, processes and facies of modern straits: Variability and complexity dominate” Prof. Robert W. Dalrymple

7.F Subaqueous mass movements and their consequences:

from scientific knowledge to geohazard assessment Daniele Casalbore - [email protected] (Sapienza University of Rome, Italy, CNR-IGAG); Lorena Moscardelli (Jackson School of Geosciences, University of Texas, Austin, USA); Mike Clare (National Oceanography Centre, Southampton, UK); David Casas (Geological Survey of Spain, Madrid, Spain); Francesco Latino Chiocci (Sapienza University of Rome, Italy) Subaqueous mass movements occur in lakes, fjords and oceans of the world, playing a key role in the evolution of coastal areas and continental margins as they represent one of the most efficient mechanisms of sediment transport from coastal to deep basins. The mapping and characterization of such processes has also significant implications for geohazard assessment, because such events can directly impact coastal and offshore infrastructures as well as cause local but destructive tsunamis. The aim of this session is to provide a forum to discuss field (outcrop, core and geophysical), experimental and numerical studies that advance our knowledge on the occurrence, failure and post-failure behavior of subaqueous mass movements. Particularly we encourage multidisciplinary contributions aimed to assess and mitigate the geohazard potential associated to these processes both at local and regional scale. Session Keynote Talk (SKT) – Wednesday, 11 – Room Blue2 – 01:30– 02:00pm - “Submarine mass movements affecting the Almanzora-Alías- Garrucha canyon system (SW Mediterranean)” Dr. David Casas, Dr. Gemma Ercilla, Prof. Belen Alonso, Dr. Mariano Yenes, Dr. Daniele Casalbore, Dr. José Nespereira, Mr. Ferran Estrada, Prof. Francesco Chiocci, Dr. Javier Idarraga, Mr. Manuel Teixeira, Dr. Silvia Ceramicola

7.G The sedimentary record of earthquakes, tsunamis, and

other extreme/catastrophic events Massimo Moretti - [email protected](Bari University, Italy); Jasper Knight (Wits University, South Africa); Giuseppe Mastronuzzi (University of Bari Aldo Moro, Italy); Andreas Vött (Mainz University, Germany) Extreme/catastrophic events are by definition rare and episodic, but they have occurred frequently throughout Earth’s history. High magnitude events such as earthquakes, tsunamis, large-scale landslides, extreme floods and storms, extraterrestrial impacts, etc. often leave a sedimentary imprint in the geological record. Nevertheless, recognition of extreme event traces in sedimentary successions is often difficult and may be ambiguous.

This session is focused on examples of seismites, tsunamites, and other sedimentary deposits that have been formed by extreme events. We encourage contributions including field-based examples discussing different approaches on data analysis and interpretation of these deposits. We also welcome studies on analogical modelling and numerical simulation for relationships between triggering processes and products of extreme events. Session Keynote Talk (SKT) – Wednesday, 11 – Room Aula Magna – 08:30– 09:00am - “Resolving the tsunami wave: interpreting palaeotsunami deposits by integrating numerical modelling and sedimentology” Dr. Jon

7.H Recent insights and outstanding questions in planetary

sedimentary geology Francesco Salese - [email protected] (Faculty of Geosciences, Utrecht University, the Netherlands, International Research School of Planetary Sciences - IRSPS, Pescara, Italy); William McMahon (Faculty of Geosciences, Utrecht University, the Netherlands); Maarten Kleinhans (Faculty of Geosciences, Utrecht University, the Netherlands); Nicolas Mangold (LPGN, Université de Nantes/CNRS UMR6112, Nantes, France) Studies in Martian sedimentary geology have never been more active. Orbital imagery has revealed a vast, ancient stratigraphic record and rover missions have enabled detailed sedimentological studies combined with mineralogical and chemical analyses. A growing list of geomorphic landforms is also known from Titan, though it remains uncertain whether the moon has a more ancient stratigraphic record. As on Earth, extraterrestrial sedimentary rocks may archive information pertaining to ancient climate, tectonics and potentially, life. Considering ongoing and future exploration missions aim to find potentially habitable environments, sedimentary rock outcrops therefore make desirable targets. This session invites any contribution towards Martian and Titan sedimentary geology and geochemistry. In addition to the classic contributions, we particularly welcome presentations that utilise appropriate Earth analogues, both modern and ancient. As ongoing and upcoming rover missions are providing increased opportunity to study extraterrestrial sedimentary strata, understanding directly accessible Earth analogues from which to base comparisons has never been more essential. Session Keynote Talk (SKT) – Wednesday, 11 – Room 8 ESD – 10:30– 11:00am - “Stratigraphy, Sedimentology, and Diagenesis of a Martian Lacustrine Deposit, Murray Formation, Gale Crater, Mars” Prof. Sanjeev

7.I Evaporites on Earth and beyond Stefano Lugli - [email protected] University of Modena - Reggio Emilia, Italy); Maciej Babel (University of Warsaw, Poland); Vinicio Manzi (University of Parma, Italy) After the full recognition of evaporites as true sediments, and not just chemical precipitates, a large array of sedimentological features have been documented in the last few tens of years, ranging from displacive, intergrowing (related to crystal growth),cumulate, branching, and to any type of clastic, and much more. Some of the sedimentary features are truly complex and may need to be carefully interpreted, especially after common diagenetic and later transformations, which may deeply change their original appearance. The goal of this session is to explore the very wide archive of sedimentary and diagenetic features on Earth, which actually represent our reference to understand what we are expecting to find on other planets, where evaporites are known to be present and are just waiting to be described in detail. Session Keynote Talk (SKT) – Wednesday, 11 – Room Odeion–02:30– 03:00pm - “Sulfate microbialites. The impact of orgamineralization on saline sediment formation” Dr. M. Esther Sanz-Montero, Mr. Pablo del Buey, Dr. Oscar Cabestrero, Dr. Juan Pablo Rodríguez-Aranda

7.LOpen session on sedimentological studies Marco Brandano – [email protected], Francesco L. Chiocci, Daniele Casalbore (CNR-IGAG, Sapienza University of Rome, Italy); Vincenzo Pascucci (University of Sassari, Italy) This session collects different researches on sedimentology and sedimentary geology studies that, for various reason, were not accommodated in other sessions. They can be interdisciplinary topics, topics not fitting any of the proposed sessions or abstracts that have special needs.

8.A Ichnology, trace fossils and depositional environment Francisco Rodrìquez-Tovar [email protected] (University of Granada, Spain); Andreas Wetzel (University of Basel, Switzerland)


Pag.19

Biogenic sedimentary structures produced by organisms store important information for the interpretation of depositional settings because trace fossil producers sensitively respond on environmental conditions. In many instances trace fossils provide the only record of environmental changes. It is the purpose of the session to show new developments in ichnologic research and to illustrate the use of trace fossils in environmental analysis by case studies. Contributions may focus on both investigations in the Recent and in the rock record and may address (paleo)biological, sedimentological and geochemical and applied aspects in addition. Session Keynote Talk (SKT) – Friday, 13– Room 8 ESD – 11:30 am – 12:00pm - “Biogenic sedimentary structures in tsunami deposits provide useful information on the nature of bioturbation” Dr. Koji Seike

9.A From sediment generation to sediment routing systems Luca Caracciolo - [email protected] (GeoZentrumNordbayern, FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg, Germany); Sergio Andò (Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences, University of Milano Bicocca, Italy); David Chew (Department of Geology, School of Natural Sciences, Trinity College Dublin, Ireland); Alberto Resentini (Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences, University of Milano Bicocca, Italy) Sediment generation and associated routing systems regulate the fate of sediments from source to sink. They are intimately connected, and result from the interplay of allogenic controls such as tectonics, climate and lithology which largely control denudation, sediment transport, deposition and storage. The quantitative assessment of source to sink systems requires multidisciplinary approaches, including the determination of sediment volumes and fluxes, composition and grain-size, or, in case of ancient systems, inverse reconstruction of the source area characteristics from the detrital mineralogy of basins including geo- and thermochronology approaches. In this session, we particularly encourage contributions focusing on how external forcing controls sediment generation, and the factors governing sediment grain-size partitioning and trajectories and their distribution within a sedimentary system. We particularly encourage contributions focusing on I) numerical landscape modelling, II) mass balance – sediment budget – erosion rates, III) chemical weathering, IV) mechanical wear, V) transport dynamics (partitioning and sorting) and VI) depositional controls on early diagenesis. We also welcome contributions highlighting technological advances and/or applications to mineralogical and compositional analyses of sediments. While regional case studies are welcome, in such contributions authors are encouraged to emphasize the broad significance of their work.

9.B Arenite petrology for unravelling hinterland and

offshore paleogeography. A tribute to Gian Gaspare Zuffa Salvatore Critelli- [email protected] (University of Calabria, Italy); Jose Arribas (Universidad Complutense de Madrid, Spain); William Cavazza (University of Bologna, Italy); Rosanna De Rosa, (University of Calabria, Italy); (Daniela Fontana, University of Modena, Italy); Cristina Stefani (University of Padua, Italy); Eduardo Garzanti (University of Milan Bicocca, Italy) The session start as a session honouring the contributions of Gian Gaspare Zuffa to arenite petrology and the source to sink paleogeography by using detrital signatures of arenites. Spatial and temporal significance of sand particles are one of the main focus for outstanding quantitative provenance analysis of clastic sediments, a topic in which after pioneering work of Zuffa in 1980, thirty years of research provided significant contributions in diverse ancient and modern sedimentary basins in the world. Extrabasinal to intrabasinal processes and related grains generation, and dispersal pathways within sedimentary basins, can quantify sedimentary budgets that are useful for paleogeographic and paleotectonic reconstructions.

10.A Anthropocene: a rising and critical issue in Earth

Science and Society Sergio Cappucci- [email protected](ENEA, Italy); Vincenzo Pascucci (University of Sassari, Italy); Martin R. Gibling (Dalhousie University, Canada) Biotic and atmospheric markers of human influence in the Anthropocene have been identified, but stratigraphic evidence is still debated by the geological community. Some stratigraphic signals are synchronous and distributed worldwide. Others are related to local dispersal of legacy

sediments, pollutants, and technological debris, with records that extend back to the later Pleistocene. Many human-generated materials degrade slowly, allowing waste and relict ruins to be preserved as “anthropic fossils”. The session gives an opportunity for sedimentologists to contribute more fully to the “Anthropocene debate” through research and datasets on sedimentary features and anthropogenic markers. We seek presentations from land-based research (archaeological sites, urban areas, contaminated sites, caves, mines, rivers, dams, forests and agricultural areas) and the submerged environment (coastal areas, continental shelves, deep ocean, lakes, lagoons and estuaries). The Anthropocene Working Group (AWG) has recommended formal designation of the Anthropocene starting at 1950, and the geological community is approaching the formalization of a new geological epoch. In view of the widespread interest in this concept, the IAS community needs to actively engage the public around the Anthropocene question. The session aims to promote a knowledgeable and coherent approach to these important, wide-ranging issues. Session Keynote Talk (SKT) – Tuesday, 10– Room 8 ESD – 04:00 – 04:30pm - “The 2.6 ka event and the birth of modern coastal systems (NW Sardinia, Mediterranean Sea)” Prof. Stefano Andreucci, Dr. Daniele Sechi, Mrs. Giulia Cossu, Dr. Mario De Luca, Dr. Antonio Santonastaso, Prof. Vincenzo Pascucci

10.B Sediment Management: from science to practice Sergio Cappucci- [email protected] (ENEA, Italy); Edward Antony (Aix-Marseille University, France); Enzo Pranzini (University of Florence, Italy); Victor N. de Jonge (University of Hull, UK); Giorgio Fontolan (University of Trieste); P. Lupino (Regione Lazio, Italy). Beach erosion is the result of a deficit in the coastal sediment budget. To manage this process coastal sediment stock assessment is crucial, even more under the Integrated Coastal Zone Management (ICZM) framework. Being hard to increase sediment input from the river system, which is actually reducing due to soil erosion control, flood reduction and dams construction, a knowledge based managing of sediment moving along the coast is the only possible short and medium time strategy to address the problem, with or without hard shore protection structures. On the other side, shelf sediments are increasingly used to artificially nourish eroding beaches, but this non-renewable resource needs to be assessed and managed in the most sustainable and profitable way. The same is for sediments deposited on the updrift side of harbors and marinas, as well at river mouth jetties; a land-to-land nourishment can be carried out through bypass systems, provided a strong knowledge of the sediment budget and supported by stakeholders consent. Under a growing human coastal occupation, and within a sea level rise scenario, managing coastal sediments has scientific, technical and administrative issues which deserve more consideration, also to reduce stakeholders conflicts. Aim of the proposed session is to collect and compare scientific, technical and legal experiences supporting a wise management of this precious resource.

10.C Geodiversity, geoheritage and geotourism and

archaeological sedimentology Lars Erikstad - [email protected] (Norwegian Institute for Nature Research, Norway); Piero Gianolla (Ferrara University, Italy); Luisa Sabato (University of Bari Aldo Moro, Italy); Julien Curie (UMR CNRS 7041 ArScAn / Sorbonne Université, Paris, France)

Aim of this session is to collect contributions regarding geodiversity and geoheritage, and that specifically address the relationships between these two important Earth aspects and tourism. Furthermore, welcome will be those contributions that will highlight how the knowledge of stratigraphic-sedimentological characters of a site can contribute to promote geological knowledge.

11.B New concepts and tools to unravel depositional

architecture in deforming basins: From seismic stratigraphy

to analogue models Andrea Argnani - [email protected] (ISMAR-CNR, Bologna, Italy); Fabiano Gamberi (ISMAR-CNR, Bologna, Italy); Andrew Madof (Chevron Energy Technology Company), Massimo Rossi (Eni Upstream & Technical Services) The study of multi-scale datasets and the integration between disciplines plays a key role in the exploration and exploitation of resources, for which a thorough understanding of subsurface stratigraphic architecture is an essential pre-requisite. In recent years, new thinking and technologies have emerged to help unlock additional hydrocarbon reserves, especially in challenging settings such as basins undergoing active deformation and morphostructural reshaping. An increasing number of studies now conclude that sequence stratigraphic concepts need to be re-considered with the aim of constructing an inductive and model-independent discipline, thereby departing from the current, deductive, and aprioristic approach. Looking from a cross-disciplinary perspective, this session aims at attracting contributions that address relationships between tectonics and sedimentation using revised sequence-stratigraphic approaches, both surface and subsurface datasets, and integration between scales. We seek contributions from researchers using: 3D-based data that documents laterally-variable accommodation in settings with moving tectonic hinges; the record of depositional systems and their response to high-frequency allogenic and autogenic changes; process-oriented stratigraphic reconstructions (high-resolution 3D seismostratigraphic interpretation and seismic geomorphology); numerical and analogic stratigraphic modelling (three-dimensional visualization and synthetic stratigraphy); and integration between digital outcrop models and subsurface data.

11.C Sedimentology at reservoir-scale: recent improvements

and way forward Francesco Bigoni - [email protected] (Eni SpA Upstream and Technical Services); Ornella Borromeo (Eni SpA Upstream and Technical Services); Massimo Catanzaro (Eni SpA Upstream and Technical Services); Giancarlo Davoli (Eni SpA Upstream and Technical Services) Sedimentology has always represented a key factor for reservoir modelling, being the main driver to infer the reservoir vs non-reservoir facies characteristics and relationships, as well as porosity and permeability distributions. Recent improvements in reservoir modelling capabilities and computational capacity result in the chance to input reservoir models with more accurate sedimentological data and to obtain more geologically consistent representations. This leads to different modelling opportunities: a first approach is to build large geocellular models, unlocking the possibility to represent the reservoir heterogeneity in greater detail; another approach is the realization of a high number (tens to hundreds) of equiprobable and alternative scenarios in the attempt to capture the reservoir uncertainties. The two approaches are not mutually exclusive. However, independently of the modelling approach, accurate sedimentological models derived from subsurface and outcrop analogues

assume therefore a stronger importance considered that their characteristics can be preserved with a high detail. The session may include both methodological contributions and case histories of outcrop and subsurface studies in clastic and carbonate depositional systems, as well as multi scenario and/or high resolution reservoir modelling studies.

11.D Siliciclastic-carbonate and other mixed deposits:

sedimentology and reservoir properties Domenico Chiarella - [email protected] (Royal Holloway, University of London, UK); Lorena Moscardelli (Equinor Research and Technology), Marcello Tropeano (University of Bari Aldo Moro, Italy) Mixed siliciclastic-carbonate deposits represent the most common examples of a particular type of sediments that lie between the extrabasinal (terrigenous, epiclastic) and the intrabasinal (mainly carbonate) end-members. In recent years, siliciclastic-carbonate deposits have received increased attention since it has been recognized that they are more common in the geologic record that previously thought. Despite the relative importance of these units, there is no consensus between the carbonate and siliciclastic communities regarding the use of a shared nomenclature and/or comprehensive depositional models. Therefore, the true nature of these deposits and the controlling parameters associated with their evolution are far to be fully understood. Mixed deposits are important in the context of hydrocarbon exploration and production since the siliciclastic and carbonate fractions can affect elements of the petroleum system differently. The aim of this session is to gather contributions focusing on different aspects pertaining to mixed deposits with special interest in case studies that (i) showcase the coexistence of both siliciclastic and carbonate deposition, as well as (ii) link different elements of the depositional profile from shallow to deep-water deposits. Contributions from both academia and industry are sought.

Longhitano, Prof. Marcello Tropeano

11.E New frontiers in mudrock sedimentology and

stratigraphy Gabriele Gambacorta - [email protected] (Geology and Geophysics Research and Technological Innovation Dpt., Eni, Italy); Juergen Schieber (Department of Geological Sciences, Indiana University, USA) Mudrocks represent roughly the 75% of the stratigraphic record. The understanding of the processes that control their deposition and diagenesis is then crucial for the interpretation of Earth history. Beside their importance as stratigraphic and paleoclimatic record, fine-grained sediments are also economically relevant as cap-rocks and source rocks. In recent years, research on mudrocks has revealed the complexity of the physical and chemical processes controlling their sedimentation. The paradigm that mudstones accumulated in low-energy settings via suspension settling have been finally overcome. Thanks to new data, flume experiments and new techniques, insights about depositional styles and processes have emerged. Complex micro- to large-scale processes control mudrocks erosion, transport and deposition, thus impacting on lateral and vertical heterogeneity of fine-grained successions. Variations in the depositional style and early diagenesis of mudrocks exert a major control on sealing efficiency and organic matter dilution and preservation, thus finally affecting their properties as potential cap-rocks and source rocks. The aim of this session is to provide a representative review of the state of the art of mudrocks petrography, sedimentology and stratigraphy. Within this framework, we invite contributions that capture the complexity of physical and chemical depositional processes of fine-grained sediments both from modern environments and past sedimentary records.

11.F Recent advances in carbonate diagenesis studies:

analytical challenges and application to case histories Marta Gasparrini [email protected](Georesources Department, IFP Energies nouvelles, France); Tatyana Gabellone (SPES - Sedimentology, Petrography and Stratigraphy, Eni S.p.A, Italy); Cédric M. John, (Department of Earth Science and Engineering, Imperial College London, UK) Diagenetic processes severely modify initial carbonate sediment properties, in particular mineralogy and crystal size (reactive potential), porosity and permeability (flow properties), and geochemistry (isotope and elemental


Pag.21

composition). Understanding the temperature (T), pressure (P) and timing (t) at which these processes occur, as well as the geochemistry of the fluids involved (isotope composition, salinity) is fundamental in building conceptual models aiming at predicting the temporal and spatial occurrence of diagenetic modifications. Constraining the diagenetic processes and their key parameters (T, P, t, fluid composition) by combining conventional petrographic and geochemical approaches often remains a challenge and has inherent limitations. Recent analytical developments that overcome the limits of conventional approaches promise to open new avenues for diagenesis studies, in particular by reducing uncertainties surrounding data interpretation. However, the applicability fields of such techniques in the entire realm of diagenesis is underexplored, and the limits and drawbacks of the new approaches still need further investigation. This session aims to solicit discussion of recent achievements in this field, where the most innovative approaches to reconstruct carbonate diagenesis have been developed or applied alongside with more traditional tools, with possible applications to solve future energy issues (oil & gas, geothermics, CO2 storage) in sedimentary basins.

11.G Seismic Geomorphology and Seismic Sedimentology:

Improvements and Applications Hongliu Zeng - [email protected](Bureau of Economic Geology, Jackson School of Geosciences, The University of Texas at Austin, USA); Xiaomin Zhu (China University of Petroleum, Beijing, China) Seismic interpretation is traditionally low resolution for sedimentological research. In recent decades, seismic interpretation of high-resolution (meters to tens of meters) subsurface sedimentology has become increasingly in demand. In mature hydrocarbon exploration basins especially, subsurface sedimentologists are more concentrated on thin, small, and stratigraphic targets for infield drilling. During the pursuit of high resolution, seismic geomorphology (Posamentier, 2000, 2001) and seismic sedimentology (Zeng et al., 1998; Schlager, 2000) arose and thrived. The seismic geomorphology and seismic sedimentology are the seismic investigation of sedimentary rocks and depositional processes, which came into being with the mapping of litho-geomorphologic facies by joint study of seismic lithology and seismic geomorphology (Zeng and Hentz, 2004). It focuses on high-resolution seismic imaging and interpretation of subsurface sedimentology (lithology, facies, and referred reservoir quality), analogous to field-based sedimentology and well-based subsurface sedimentology, but more accustomed to reservoir prediction. The researches of seismic geomorphology and seismic sedimentology have been becoming a cutting-edge for fine sedimentology and fruitful achievements have been made in the world. We propose this session for researchers to present and discuss new tools, methods, and challenges, and also showcase the continued success of seismic geomorphology and seismic sedimentology applied to exploration and production of petroleum and other mineral resources.

11.H Sedimentary heterogeneity controls on fluid flow in

aquifers and hydrocarbon reservoirs Giacomo Medici - [email protected] (University of Leeds,UK); Luca Colombera (University of Leeds, UK); Na Yan (University of Leeds, UK); Mattia Marini (University of Milan, Italy); Nigel Mountney (University of Leeds, UK) Description and quantification of sedimentary heterogeneities is fundamental to constraining connectivity of facies and distribution of permeability in geological porous media. This has important implications for establishing approaches to hydrocarbon recovery, underground carbon sequestration, groundwater exploitation and remediation for contaminant dispersal in aquifers. Linkages between depositional environments, sedimentary facies, patterns of diagenesis, and petrophysical properties have been widely described from a range of different settings, demonstrating the value of sedimentology in reservoir characterization. Datasets acquired from outcrop and core logs can provide information on how sedimentary facies stack spatially and aid in development of predictive models for subsurface analogues. Furthermore, petrophysical and hydraulic testing from wells assists in the detection and appraisal of flow effects for

different facies configurations, and therefore makes the characterization of productive reservoirs more robust. We invite research presentations on characterization and modelling of sedimentary and petrophysical heterogeneities from both carbonate and siliciclastic deposits. Contributions are invited on specific topics that include, but are not limited to, the following: capturing heterogeneities from outcrops, cores and geophysical imaging; numerical and geostatistical modelling of sedimentary facies and petrophysics; approaches to enhanced oil recovery, CO2 storage and assessment of dynamic connectivity in reservoirs; groundwater flow and contaminant transport.

11.I Organic matter in palaeoenvironmental,

palaeogeographical and hydrocarbon exploration research:

progress and perspectives Amalia Spina - [email protected] (University of Perugia, Italy); Annette E. Göetz (University of Portsmouth, UK), Nicoletta Buratti (Total SA, France) The session will focus on the progress of current research and the role of organic matter, palynofacies and palynology studies as an important tool in geoscience. A wide range of topics highlighting the application of organic matter studies to hydrocarbon exploration, palaeoenvironmental reconstructions and stratigraphy will be included. The session aims at stimulating discussions and collaboration on: -integrated palynofacies, organic facies and sedimentological analyses as contribute to palaeoenvironmental reconstruction and basin evaluation; -organic facies as tool for palaeogeographic and paleoclimate reconstructions; -palaeobiogeographic reconstructions by means of marine and terrestrial palynomorph associations; -thermal maturity assessment of organic matter by optical and geochemical methods. Participants are invited to present methodological approaches and significant case studies in reconstructing depositional environments, burial and thermal modelling of sedimentary basins, cyclostratigraphy, sequence stratigraphy, etc.. All these topics are crucial for the future application of organic matter studies as a fundamental research in the fields of Earth Science.

11.L Methane-rich fluid expulsion processes and their

signatures in marine sediments Daniela Fontana [email protected] (University of Modena, Italy); Rossella Capozzi (University of Bologna, Italy); Jochen Knies (Geological Survey of Norway NGU, and Centre for Arctic Gas Hydrate, Environment and Climate CAGE at UIT Arctic University, Norway); Giuliana Panieri (Centre for Arctic Gas Hydrate, Environment and Climate CAGE at UIT Arctic University of Norway, Norway) Enormous amount of methane and gas hydrates are found along continental margins worldwide, beneath Arctic permafrost and Antarctica ice. The deep methane-rich fluids tend to migrate upward through diffuse intergranular flow and/or advective flow through structural or stratigraphic permeable pathways, eventually mixing with shallow methane sources, inducing the precipitation of thick authigenic carbonates linked to the anaerobic oxidation of methane. There are still many unsolved questions and fundamental science challenges related to methane carbon flux in the marine environment, gas hydrate reservoir responses to natural and anthropogenic perturbations, as well as their evolution through time. In this session we welcome contributes showing examples and evidences from sedimentology, bio/geochemistry and ecology, that control and/or are affected by methane-rich fluid expulsions and gas hydrate settings. We wish to create synergies between marine and terrestrial sciences, modern day and past observations, for a multifaceted view on methane rich fluid dynamics and their signatures in the sedimentary column.

Deep water depositional systems, new frontiers of sedimentology and oil exploration

Adriano R. Viana - Petrobras S.A.

Petroleum exploration is an industrial activity where different

kinds of risks are part of the business. Besides political, market

and costs risks, and in order to evaluate the potential of a

sedimentary basin to become a prolific oil and/or gas province,

it is of paramount importance to identify and quantify the

geological risks of finding an active petroleum system. Primary

guidelines are ensuring high success rate and optimum

geohazards assessment.

Exploration has moved to deeper waters in the last decades

stimulated by new discoveries in frontier areas supported by

leading edge technology that yields better reservoir imaging,

higher drilling performance in hostile settings and the

acquisition of a huge amount of GGG data. A robust

interpretation of the depositional systems developed in the

deeper portions of the continental margins is hence a

fundamental step to characterize the critical elements of a

petroleum system with special emphasis on source and

reservoirs rocks.

The understanding of how deep water depositional systems are

formed and evolve through time depends on the sum of many

factors. The correct identification of the physical and chemical

processes responsible for sediments

transport/accumulation/erosion /growth, the physiographic

context of the basin, the circulation pattern of the margin, the

availability of sediments, the characteristics and the controls on

lateral and vertical sediment distribution are some of the

aspects that must be tackled.

The remoteness of the deep water settings makes any kind of

direct observation of the present day processes and the

sedimentary records on this realm dependent on a high cost,

complex data acquisition.

The petroleum industry provides part of these data, scientific

expeditions some other, which must be added to the basic

knowledge derived from outcrop studies and physical and

numerical simulations. The huge amount and diversity of data

that has been accumulated along many years of investigation

can only be fully exploited with the help of high-performance

computational devices and the use of artificial intelligence

technology.

The association of modern technology with vintage methods

aiming to interpret depositional systems will only be successful

if a strong sedimentological background is considered as a pre-

requisite for the geoscientists who want to extract knowledge

from data.

Emergent Behavior and Emerging Methods in Carbonate Depositional Environments

Sam Purkis - University of Miami

What is a complex system? A universal characteristic of a

complex system is that the whole is greater than, and often

significantly different from, the simple linear sum of its parts. In

many instances, the whole appears to act in a manner

dissociated from the specific characteristics of its individual

building blocks. Reef ecosystems are a case in point. No

individual reef architect has any sense of the grand enterprise

to which it is contributing. But as a collective ecosystem, vast

carbonate edifices are constructed with a coherent and

intricate morphology (Fig. 1, for instance). This collective

outcome, in which a system manifests significantly different

characteristics from those resulting from simply adding up all of

the constituent parts, is termed ‘emergent behavior’. A special

case of emergent behavior is ‘self-organization’, where the

constituents of a system agglomerate themselves to form the

emergent whole.

Although there have been many efforts to evaluate complexity

in shallow-water carbonate deposits, studies in this realm have

primarily focused on long-term and large-scale processes, such

as the provision of accommodation space (e.g. between

greenhouse and icehouse climatic regimes) and the facies

geometries that these changes yield. However, it is also well

recognized that the growth fabrics of which carbonate

depositional systems are built, emerge from tightly-integrated

systems of abiotic and biotic

components. It is recognized too

that these components display a

myriad of organism-environment

feedbacks operating on different

length scales. Configured as such,

carbonate depositional

environments have the potential

to generate complex facies

anatomies through self-

organization. And, as coral reefs

illustrate with depressing

effectiveness, a small perturbation

in one part of a self-organized

system can have radical

consequences elsewhere. In 1983-

1984, for instance, the sea urchin

Diadema antillarum suffered mass

mortality throughout the

Caribbean. On face value, an

inconsequential component of a

sprawling reef ecosystem, but the

demise of this herbivore

contributed to a disastrous phase

shift of the region’s reefs from

coral to algal-dominated, a

configuration which persists today.

Such are the non-linear

sensitivities of complex

ecosystems and the motivation for

understanding them.

Reef systems exhibit at least two behaviors consistent with self-

organization as a structuring force. First, 30% of platform-

interior reefs globally exhibit reticular regular patterning, a

behavior recognized as far back as the Upper Paleozoic (e.g.

Purkis et al., 2005). Second, the patterning of modern and

ancient reef systems displays remarkably universal, systematic,

and predictable relationships which describe how the shape

and separation of depositional elements scale with size (Fig.

1D). Whereas the processes underpinning these remarkable

regularities are poorly understood, their existence suggests a

common conceptual framework to underly the patterning of

both modern and ancient reefs, regardless of their biological

architects – surely an excellent hunting ground for comparative

sedimentologists.

With the production and accumulation of carbonate fabrics

intrinsically tied to life, any advance in the understanding of the

myriad of organism-environment feedbacks that serve to

structure carbonate depositional systems over geological

timescales, will also aid in understanding function over shorter

ecological timescales. Again, this is particularly true for coral

reefs. With compelling evidence that half the world’s reefs

have been lost over the last four decades, there is urgent

motivation to better understand the nature of the disruptions

that are conspiring to devastate this iconic carbonate ecosyste

The sequence stratigraphy of coastal plain and alluvial deposits: A look into the future using the Quaternary record

Alessandro Amorosi - University of Bologna, Italy

Over the past two decades, the sequence stratigraphy of

Quaternary alluvial, deltaic, and coastal successions has

expanded in an exciting direction of research. In recent years,

Quaternary geology has become relevant to the oil and gas

exploration and shallow subsurface Late Pleistocene to

Holocene datasets have been increasingly used at sub-seismic

scales for the characterization of reservoir architecture and

prediction of petrophysical properties. Recent advances in

unconventional reservoir characterization have placed

significant attention on mud dispersal, deposition, and

diagenesis, emphasizing the need for a multi-disciplinary

approach to the facies analysis of mud-prone sediment bodies.

Holocene successions worldwide exhibit recurring and

predictable motifs in stratigraphic architecture and shoreline

trajectory that can be delineated objectively and that reflect the

overwhelming dominance of post-glacial eustatic change on

sedimentation. Quantitative sediment fluxes data can be

extracted reliably from late Quaternary sediment-routing

systems, as these systems offer excellent stratigraphic

correlation on short-term observational periods. Holocene

stratigraphy, in particular, is confidently constrained by

numerical dating, and can be seen as a potential bridge between

the observable and measurable modern depositional processes

and interpretation of stratal architecture in the ancient record.

Architectural-stacking patterns of Holocene coastal wedges

have been used historically for the interpretation of

transgressive-regressive trends from different sedimentary

basins around the world. The synchronous initiation of Holocene

marine deltas by deceleration of eustatic rise, 8500 to 6500

years ago, is one of the few well-documented examples of

worldwide coastal system response to relative sea-level

fluctuations, at the turnaround from transgressive to highstand

conditions.

SEPM Special Publications 41 and 51, from the late 80s and

the early 90s, respectively, made the stratigraphic record of

Quaternary sea levels and facies models of incised valley systems

accessible to the broader sedimentologic (and sequence

stratigraphic) community. The recent development of source-to-

sink concepts has emphasized the ability to generate numerical

and physical models of surface processes and their stratigraphic

results using the Quaternary record.

The stratigraphic analysis of buried Quaternary strata can

have practical limitations compared to exceptionally exposed

outcrop cases. In subsurface studies, facies analysis is limited to

core-scale sedimentary structures and reconstruction of stratal

geometries is made difficult by low data density. Despite these

limitations, data extractable from late Quaternary cores offer

unique opportunities for high-resolution sequence stratigraphic

analysis. Potential advantages of the late Quaternary record

over ancient deposits include:

1. precise and accurate techniques for age

determination, due to the applicability of multiple

geochronometers, such as radiocarbon dating, optically

stimulated luminescence, mollusk aminostratigraphy, mollusk

U-series, electron spin resonance, and cosmogenic

radionuclides;

2. a huge body of knowledge about late Quaternary

climate change and eustatic history that permits the

examination of stratigraphic architecture and environmental

evolution in response to glacial–interglacial fluctuations and

base-level changes;

3. changes in tectonic forcing during the narrow time

window of the late Quaternary are at a minimum, and primary

stratigraphic relations between adjacent depositional systems

are commonly preserved;

4. late Quaternary paleogeography was quite similar to

the modern, and comparable sediment-routing systems

developed, with only minor changes in depositional regimes and

river network under glacial (lowstand) conditions;

5. late Quaternary fossil assemblages closely resemble

modern bioassemblages and therefore can serve as a basis for

detailed and accurate facies interpretation;

6. Quaternary cores allow accurate characterization of

mud-dominated facies, often obscure in outcrop. A

comprehensive program of sample analysis (sediment

composition and fossil content) in the mud size range provides

the information to discriminate subtle changes in environmental

conditions and shifts in sediment provenance within seemingly

homogeneous facies. Fine-grained deposits can also elucidate

sedimentary processes tied to climate change inferred from

record of past vegetation cover;

7. late Quaternary sediments did not undergo strong

diagenetic modifications and provide the basis to constrain rock

properties without confounding weathering effects.

Stratal stacking patterns are the core of sequence

stratigraphy and terms that imply a relationship between sea

level and systems tract should preferentially be avoided when

interpreting the ancient record. In this regard, the late

Quaternary record plays an important “educational” role, as it is

one of the few places where stacking-pattern, systems-tract, and

sea-level terminologies meet and can be used almost

interchangeably.

There is an evident increase in the resolution of stratigraphic

studies and the sequence stratigraphy of Quaternary

successions is expanding its scope to include applications to a

variety of data sets, over a range of time scales. The best insights

into the quantification of the finest stratigraphic scales are

provided by the high-resolution studies of the Holocene, which

have the ability to quantify depositional systems and their

changes on 102-103 yrs timescales. The Quaternary record

cannot be applied to all climatic conditions (e.g., icehouse versus

greenhouse regimes), but a forward-looking research agenda

can be developed through the application of Quaternary geology

to a wide variety of fields that are virtually unexplored. Areas

where our expertise in stratigraphy and sedimentology can gain

increasing importance using the Quaternary record include the

detection of the effects of short-term tectonism and improving

seismic hazard assessment.

The Quaternary record is right beneath our feet and

represents a resource that could impart profound insight into

the interpretation of ancient strata. This talk will highlight the

opportunities and challenges in using the well constrained

Quaternary stratigraphic record towards a better understanding

of stratigraphic architecture.

Pre-conference short course Sr-isotope stratigraphy (SIS): Methods, applications

and limitations Offered by Gianluca Frijia (University of Ferrara, Italy); Cost: 50€; 9 September; CONTACT:

[email protected].

In the last years the use of 87Sr/86Sr for stratigraphic purposes, as a high-resolution tool of

chronostratigraphic dating and correlation of marine sediments, has increased dramatically. The

so-called Strontium Isotope Stratigraphy (SIS), relies on the fact that the 87Sr/86Sr value of the

ocean varied through geological time and that the composition of the ocean waters is

homogeneous with regards to Sr isotopes at any time due to the long residence time of Sr in the

oceans. However, despite the high potential of SIS, some possible shortcomings may severely

complicate its application (e.g. diagenesis). The objective of the course is to give an introduction to

the method and a guideline for the correct use of SIS showing that a rigid procedure is mandatory

to apply this chemostratigraphic method correctly. The main applications and limitations will be

discussed in detail by means of several examples from around the world where SIS has been

applied successfully. The course will consist of by lessons and practical exercises derived from case

studies

Intra-Meeting (Thursday) Workshop 1. On the rocks: Looking at cores to discover the secrets of giant reservoirs

Ornella Borromeo and Marco Fonnesu (Eni Upstream & technical Services, Italy);

CONTACT [email protected]

Core and core samples, although not routinely collected during oil and gas E&P activities, represent

key elements for building sedimentological models in the subsurface, as well as for understanding

and characterizing the reservoir systems. Cores are the only data allowing to perform direct

analyses of the rocks lying in the subsurface, thus providing information like those that would be

collected by studying an outcrop. Sedimentological and petrophysical information are also used to

calibrate indirect subsurface data as well-logs and seismic. In the last decades a variety of new

approaches, including advanced techniques, have been developed to discover the characteristics of the reservoir from

the core. Along the workshop, two unique datasets coming from Eni recent giant discoveries will be presented to

demonstrate how they are integrated with well-logs and seismic data:

The Mamba/Coral mixed turbidite-contourite clastic system (offshore Mozambique) which processes interaction

provides excellent reservoir characteristics in the axial part of deep water channel complexes.

The Zohr shelf carbonate system (offshore Egypt) which provides a peculiar subsurface example of Mesozoic circum

Mediterranean carbonate platform characterized by high reservoir quality.

Intra-Meeting (Thursday) Workshop3. Travertine facies: a Tivoli core-workshop and walk through the Sapienza University Campus

Giovanna Della Porta (University of Milan, Italy), Enrico Capezzuoli (University of Florence, Italy), Alessandro Mancini

(University of Perugia, Italy); CONTACT: [email protected]; [email protected]

The core workshop aims at observing the travertine facies characteristics and their vertical

superposition in cores drilled in the Pleistocene hydrothermal travertines quarried in the Tivoli

area, east of Rome. This well-known travertine deposits, named by the Romans as

lapistiburtinus, were used for the construction of important buildings such as the Colosseum

(70-80 AD). Since the fundamental studies by Chafetz and Folk (1984), travertines have attracted

the interest of the academia and industry as important archives of information about physico-

chemical vs. biologically influenced processes of carbonate precipitation in terrestrial conditions,

palaeoclimatic and tectonic records and as potential water and hydrocarbon reservoirs.

The detailed core analysis will focus on the identification of the different fabric types, their porosity and permeability

and interpretation of the depositional environments. This information will be integrated with observation of travertine

facies on the Sapienza University building walls with a walk through the University Campus

The workshop is divided in three parts: a) an introduction to travertine facies types, precipitation processes and

depositional environments; b) travertine core analysis and facies description; and c) a walk across the University

Campus buildings.

Line drawing and facies mapping of the Mt. Feudo

transect exposing a carbonate platform to basin

transition (Gattolin et al., 2009 and Preto et al., 2011).

Carbonate platforms represent economically significant targets for

hydrocarbon exploration and production.

Such types of reservoirs are liable to display a large variability in

their characteristics, affecting both performance and economic

viability, hence, outcrop analogs can provide key information for

their interpretation in the subsurface.

Microbial carbonate platforms, rare today, are common in the

Paleozoic and Mesozoic record when they reached considerable size

and developed unique and characteristic facies associations and

depositional geometries. They form giant reservoirs e.g. in the

Paleozoic of the Pre-Caspian area or in the Cenozoic of the Far East.

This field-trip will be held in the Dolomites that feature a collection

of microbial Triassic carbonate platforms, with the aim of providing a

multiscale understanding of such carbonate systems ranging from

depositional facies distribution and architecture to their relations

with tectonic setting and climate.

Participants will have the opportunity to visit exceptional outcrops

where platforms can be examined from the facies level up to

seismic-scale depositional geometries.

The fieldtrip will focus on the Middle-Upper Triassic with key stops in

localities such as the Latemar Platform, the Sella Platform and the

Cinque Torri-Tofane nearby Cortina d’Ampezzo.

Saltmarshes and meandering tidal channels of the

Venice Lagoon

Venice and its lagoon are registered in the UNESCO World Heritage

List of sites of outstanding universal value and offer an outstanding

example of coexistence between human activities and natural

processes. The Venice Lagoon represents an unique laboratory to

investigate accumulation of saltmarshes and tidal-channel deposits

under variable rates of subsidence and sediment supply. The most

naturally preserved areas of the northern lagoon will be visited during

this trip. These areas are characterized by low (i.e. 2.0 mm/yr)

subsidence rate, which is mainly balanced by clastic sedimentation.

Saltmarshes, tidal flats, tidal creeks and channels will be visited.

Sediment-peels of cores recovered from these different depositional

sub-environments will be shown during the trip, and their

characteristics will be discussed in terms of sedimentary processes

and dynamics.

Drone view of superbly exposed Pliocene shallow-

water sandstones near Montefalcone

The Central portion of the Periadriatic Basin is a N-S

oriented foreland basin system associated to the Central

Apennine Outer Orogenic Wedge. This system stretches

along the Marche and Abruzzi regions and is an excellent

example of an evolving mountain chain and associated

deep-marine to fluvial-alluvial foredeep and wedge-top

basins system. This 3 and a half-day trip has been designed

to give an overview of the stratigraphic architecture and

evolutionary steps of the basin by integrating surface and

subsurface datasets.

It affords a fine west to east transect through the Messinian-

Pleistocene basin fill in Abruzzo and Marche, where

outcrops allow a close examination of sedimentary facies

and architecture of depositional systems.

The basin fill succession includes turbidites, coarse-grained

submarine canyon fills and shallow-water depositional

settings.

The analysis of facies architecture and discontinuity surfaces

will allow the attendees to understand the relative role of

climate, sediment supply, and thrust front propagation

inside the foreland basins system as several factors

controlling the stratigraphic record.

Deep lacustrine sediments with tephra layers

(San Nicandro Fm.)

The field trip will visit the lacustrine deposits of one of the oldest

intermontane basins of Central Italy: the tectonically active

L’Aquila Basin. This sedimentary basin developed during the late

Piacenzian-Gelasian syn-rift stage that affected Central Italy in a

post-orogenic tectonic phase. Deep lacustrine deposits, consisting

of massive and/or thinly laminated white calcareous silt (Limi di

San Nicandro Auct.) with tephra layers, characterize the

stratigraphic succession of this intermontane basin. A four

Caspiocypris species-flock (Ostracoda), together with sponge

spicules and molluscs, define the fossil content of the lacustrine

deposits of L’Aquila Basin. A shallowing upward trend is

recognizable in the lacustrine deposits that crop out in the

PoggioPicenze-Castelnuovo area. In the L’Aquila Basin, a complete

facies tract from deep lacustrine facies (e.g., San Nicandro Fm) to

subaerial slope deposits (e.g., Valle Valiano Fm), through well-

developed delta and coastal facies (e.g., Petogna and Bominaco),

defines the late Piacenzian-Gelasian sedimentary succession of this

ancient lacustrine basin.

Pleistocene deposits at “Roman tombs” beach, San

Giovanni di Sinis

The field trip will visit stunning exposures along the West coast of Sardinia

island. Pocket beaches dominated by sand-and-gravel shallow marine

deposits and intertidal algal bindstones along with well-developed sandy

strandplain and barrier-lagoon systems will be examined. Field evidence,

existing published information and novel Luminescence dates will provide

many opportunities for discussing climate and sea-level variations that

have influenced the evolution of West Sardinia since the penultimate

Interglacial stage (MIS 7).

First day: we will visit outcrops along the coast from Alghero to Bosa to

examine MIS 5 pocket beaches and strandplain systems dominated by

sandy-gravelly shallow marine deposits, intertidal algal bindstones, coastal

dunes and colluvial/alluvial bodies. Overnight stay in Bosa.

Second day: A single stop (San Giovanni di Sinis) to visit the most complete

Pleistocene succession of West Sardinia where impressive spit and barrier-

lagoon systems crops out. Overnight stay in Alghero.

Third day: A single stop (Rena Majore) to examine a small-incised valley

succession characterized by coastal apron-fan (debris-flows and water-

flows) systems resting on a pocket beach. There will be opportunities and

time for swimming in a marvellous sea.

Lower Pleistocene strait-fill deposits facing

the modern Messina Strait (background)

During the Early Pleistocene, the Messina Strait between Sicily and

Calabria was a ca. 10-15-km-wide and 40-km-long, tide-dominated

marine passageway, with a sedimentary dynamics analogous to its

modern and narrower counterpart. Today, 250-m-thick strait-fill strata

crop out on the two opposite margins (Scylla and Charybdis) of the

modern strait, preserving the sedimentary record of a variety of

processes and environments and their feedback with a dominant tidal

dynamics.

During this 3-days-long field trip, attendances will be introduced to the

complex tidal dynamics of tidal straits and the erosional/depositional

phenomena resulting from tidal flow convergence/divergence and

consequent tidal amplification. Participants will be familiarized with

typical strait-center, strait-end and strait-margin facies and on the

architectures of strait-axis tidal cross-strata complexes, well exposed in a

number of easily-accessible sections.

During the visit at the various stops, direct linkages between the observed

sedimentary facies and the modern tidal dynamics of the present-day

Messina Strait will be constantly considered, aiming at promoting open-

minded, critical discussions on the sedimentary dynamics of the ancient

Messina passage.

Neapolitan volcanic area from satellite; Vesuvius

and Phlegraean fumarolic phenomena

The field trip focuses on pyroclastic deposits of the Campi

Flegrei volcanisms, plus its on-going hydrothermal activity (CO2

and S-rich water vapor). This activity can reappraise planetary

environments. We will observe spectacular outcrops of deposits

across the Campanian Ignimbrite and Neapolitan Yellow Tuff

volcanism, dated back at 40 and 15 kyrs. Sedimentological,

textural, mineralogic, and petrographic features from primary

origin and exceptional secondary hydrothermal transformations

of these deposits will help linking and favor different perspective

on interpretation of extra-terrestrial planetary rocks.

The itinerary includes a trip through the solfataric landscapes

developed on the Solfatara volcanic structures to observe the

starts with pyroclastic fall deposit emplaced by the sustained

column phase of the Plinian eruption embedded to minor

pyroclastic density current deposits. Later pyroclastic currents

aggraded massive to stratified deposits showing vertical and

lateral facies variations. Both the sites offer the possibility to

investigate the relationship between the types of pyroclastic

deposits and their effects on Roman buildings and victims, and

starting from the respective destructive power, supply some

hints on present volcanic hazard assessment. Moreover, both

the sites will put the visitors in touch with the life in the

Vesuvian area during Roman age.

IM3 - The Mesozoic carbonates of the Amalfi Coast: facies and dolomitization across time

1 day (Thursday, Sept. 12) 120€ Rome to Rome

Leaders: Alessandro Iannace, Mariano Parente (University Federico II of Naples, Italy)

Contacts: [email protected]

The Upper Triassic dolomite cliffs at Cetara

The fieldtrip aims at illustrating contrasting

dolomitization styles affecting the Norian to

Upper Cretaceous shallow water carbonate

succession along the Amalfi Coast, in one of

the most beautiful scenarios of the

Mediterranean Sea. Along with the field

examples of various dolomitization and

diagenetic processes (early stratabound,

late shallow burial, fracture-related

dolomitization, evaporite silicification), the

main carbonate platform biofacies of the

Mesozoic will be shown, which are good

analogues for coeval successions of the

eastern Mediterranean and the Middle East.

Geochemical data, both as a stratigraphic

and diagenetic tool, will be discussed, as

well as mechanical stratigraphy results

gathered in calcareous-dolomitic Cretaceous

successions in a perspective of reservoir

characterization.

IM4 - The depositional architecture of the Pleistocene deposits of the Roman Basin

1 day (Thursday, Sept. 12) 50€ Rome to Rome Leaders: Salvatore Milli, Daniel Tentori (Sapienza University of Rome, Italy); Mattia Marini (University of Milan, Italy)


Above: Fluvial and beach gravel deposits of the Ponte Galeria Sequence.

Below: Mammal site (the Polledrara di Cecanibbio) within the fluvial

deposits of the Ponte Galeria Sequence

The Roman Basin represents one of the

extensional basins, developed starting from the

Late Pliocene along the central sector of Latium

Tyrrhenian margin.

The sediment filling this basin were transported

and deposited by the Tiber river and its

tributaries and were attributed to fluvial,

coastal, deltaic and shelf depositional systems.

Several studies suggest that stratigraphic and

depositional architecture the Roman Basin is the

result of the close interaction among tectonic

uplift, volcanic activity, and glacio-eustatic sea-

level fluctuations.

The aims of this field trip will be the

sedimentology and the sequence stratigraphy of

these deposits and how they are organized in

relation to the interaction between the three

main processes mentioned above.

IM6 - Sabellaria bioconstructions and their Plio-Pleistocene substratum along the southern Latium coast (Tor Caldara, Anzio) 1 day (Thursday, Sept. 12) 30€ Rome to Rome

Leaders: Massimo Moretti and Stefania Lisco (University of Bari, Italy), Maria Flavia Gravina (University of Tor Vergata,

Rome, Italy), Marco Brandano and Laura Tomassetti (Sapienza University of Rome, Italy)


Above: a Sabellaria alveolata mound. Middle: The Nerone Villa

remains and the clinoforms of the Pleistocene deposits. Below:

Pleistocene transitional deposits coloured by sulfuric fluids.

The field trip winds through beaches and cliffs of the

southern Latium coast. It is centered on some unusual

present-day worm reefs that crop out in the Tor Caldara

beach (a). Sabellaria alveolata is a sedentary annelid

polychaete that builds hummocks, mounds and actual

bioconstructions with a structure similar to

honeycombs; the worm captures sands with specific

grain-size forming intriguing arenaceous tubes.

The field trip will show also some Plio-Pleistocene

marine successions that crop out in the Anzio area. The

older marine units are exposed along the cliffs that

contain also the remains of the Imperial Nerone Villa (b).

Here, regular metric clinoforms are locally cut by slide

scars. The younger Pleistocene deposits form a

regressive marine succession (from shelf shales to

backshore aeolian sandstones) that is visible close to the

Tor Caldara locality. The uppermost portion of this

succession crops out in the Martian landscape of the

Natural Reserve of Tor Caldara, where sulfuric fluids

coming from the adjacent Solfatara, paints the

Pleistocene deposits with astonishing colors (c).

B1 - The Messinian sediments of the Tertiary Piedmont Basin: a record of the Messinian Salinity Crisis and of circulation of gas-rich fluids 2 days, 270€ Rome (13th) to Turin (15th) Leaders: Francesco Dela Pierre, Luca Martire, Marcello Natalicchio (University of Torino, Italy)


Above: slump scar in slope marls; lower left:dykes and

carbonate veins; lower right: selenitic gypsum.

The fieldtrip aims at illustrating the stratigraphic architecture of

the Upper Messinian sediments including the record of the

Messinian salinity crisis (MSC) and the effects of circulation of

methane-rich fluids through the sedimentary column before and

during the crisis itself. The succession includes: Tortonian and

lower Messinian slope marls and organic-rich shales which record

progressively more restricted conditions heralding the advent of

the MSC and contain CH4-derived carbonates including Lucinid-

rich chemoherms and a wide array of fossil-free stratabound and

cylindrical concretions; primary evaporites e.g. selenitic and

cumulate gypsum interbedded with shales and marls deposited

during the first phase of the MSC (5.97-5.60 Ma); clastic gypsum

sediments and mass wasting deposits, including both gypsum

blocks and masses of CH4-derived carbonates, representing the

product of the second phase of the MSC (5.60-5.55 Ma). The

products of circulation of gas-rich fluids during the Messinian in

older (Oligocene), coarse-grained clastic sediments will also be

shown which resulted in huge masses of strongly cemented

sediments crossed by a complex network of polyphase dykes and

carbonate-filled veins.

B2 -Control exerted by collisional tectonics on basin topography and depositional styles: the Tertiary Piedmont Basin (TPB) in the Alps-Apennines Junction (NW Italy). 5 days, 600€ Rome (14th) to Milan (18th) Leaders: Andrea Di Giulio and Chiara Amadori (University of Pavia, Italy); Fabrizio Felletti and Mattia Marini (University of

Milan, Italy); Marco Patacci (University of Leeds, UK); Massimo Rossi (Eni Upstream & Technical Services, Italy)


Above: Marine onlap of turbidites over ramp marls.

Below: Submarine unconformity on a hinged shelf margin

The field trip illustrates the Late Eocene-Miocene changes in

depositional style of the infill of the Tertiary Piedmont Basin (TPB)

in a stratigraphic perspective, relating them to major

paleogeographic reorganization linked to Alpine and Apennine

tectonics. A variety of depositional systems will be examined

including alluvial, marginal marine, shelf and intra-slope and basin-

plain turbidites. Outcrop observations will be integrated with

photogrammetric models and seismics from time-equivalent buried

examples from the area. Topics covered include: 1) relationships

between morphostructural elements and origin of classical

sequence boundaries driven by relative sea level falls vs. hinged-

margin drowning unconformities driven by hinged accommodation

on oversteepened shelf margins; 2) morphologies of deep-water

erosion; 3) controls of basin morphology on development of

turbidite facies and architecture; 4) petrography of turbidite

sandstones and mudstones and implications for origin and source

of mud-grade sediments; 5) implications for characterization of

analogue plays and reservoirs.

B5 - Foredeep turbidites of the Northern and Central Apennines: Marnoso-arenacea and Laga

Formations

5 days, 500€ Rome (14th) to Rome (18th) Leaders: Salvatore Milli (Sapienza University of Rome, Italy); Roberto Tinterri, Alberto Piazza (University of Parma, Italy);

Mattia Marini (University of Milan, Italy); Massimiliano Moscatelli (CNR-IGAG, Istituto di Geologia Ambientale e

Geoingegneria, Rome, Italy)


Above: Marnoso-arenacea Formation: geometry of

structurally-confined strata. Below: Laga Formation: large

scale geometry of a channelized sandstone body

Turbidite deposits developed in structurally confined basins show

depositional elements as channels, lobes, and basin plains featuring

highly variable facies, complex geometries and characteristic

hierarchies, which can be analysed only through a detailed

examination of outcrops and the measure of several stratigraphic -

sedimentological sections. To this purpose exceptionally good

exposures are required.

The Miocene foredeep turbidite deposits of the Marnoso-arenacea

and Laga Formations satisfy this condition and provide a large

amount of quantitative information.

In this field trip we will discuss about the origin, provenance and

evolution of the flows related to these turbidite successions as well

as the main facies and physical stratigraphic features.

At the same time we will also discuss about the relationships

between tectonic and sedimentation of these basins in the context

of the northern and Central Apennines Miocene foreland basin

system.

B7 - Paleocene to Quaternary stratigraphic evolution of Majella Carbonate Platform (Central Apennines); From geological and archeological events to the potential carbonate reservoir

2 days, 190€ Rome (14th) to Rome (15th) Leaders: Marco Brandano, Laura Tomassetti, Irene Cornacchia (Sapienza University of Rome, Italy); Luis Pomar

(University of the Balearic Islands); Silvano Agostini (Soprintendenza Archeologia dell’Abruzzo, Italy)


Non depositional escarpment that separated shallow-

water platform carbonates from onlapping slope

sediments

Excellent continuous exposures of Paleocene to Miocene

carbonate ramp deposits along the Majella NNW flank (e.g.

Orfento and S. Bartolomeo valleys), allow to investigate facies

changes both along and across the ramp environment.

Relationships among sedimentary structures and depositional

processes, among stratigraphic architecture and syn/post-

depositional tectonics are investigated and discussed.

Moreover, extensive well known bitumen shows, found both

along fractured zones and in the rock matrix, are analysed and

possible controlling factors are discussed.

The Majella Mountain is also characterized by several

archaeological, historical and artistic testimonies dating back

to the earliest prehistory. They consist of Paleolithic open air

sites, Neolithic and metal age settlements.

The rock art date from the Paleolithic (black or red

anthropomorphic paintings) to the Middle Ages up to historical

times. The Valle Giumentina Pleistocene open-air site

represents one of the most important Paleolithic site in the

area and is closely located to many of the archaeological and

historical sites described above.
