[Gisel Peri]

Estimados colegas,


Invitamos a todos los interesados en el estudio de ríos y abanicos
Cuaternarios a enviar su contribución para nuestra sesión (Nº 68) del
próximo Congreso de INQUA2023 en Roma (14-20 de Julio de 2023). Un resumen
de la sesión se encuentra a continuación y pueden encontrar más detalles en
la página web del congreso (https://inquaroma2023.org/), teniendo en cuenta
que la fecha límite para la presentación de resúmenes es el *1° de
Noviembre de 2022.*

Dear colleagues,


We invite anyone with an interest in Quaternary rivers and fans to consider
submitting an abstract to our dedicated session (No. 68) at INQUA2023 in
Rome (14th-20th July 2023). A session summary is below and further details
can be found at the conference web page (https://inquaroma2023.org/),
noting the abstract deadline of *1st November 2022.*



*Rivers and fans: sediment and landform archives of long-term Quaternary
landscape development and environmental change (session 68)*


Rivers and fans are key components of Quaternary landscapes, linking
uplands to offshore marine settings. The ubiquity of their sediment records
and morphological expression offers considerable potential for exploring
landscape development, alongside interpreting climatic-tectonic controls
across longer (104-106 yrs) and deeper Quaternary time. In mountainous
areas, rivers and fans occur as terraced landforms configured into
staircase sequences. These record surface uplift and climate-linked
denudation, informing on base-level fall linked to drainage network
configuration change. Climate-related river-fan terrace sedimentation gives
insight into local environment changes (tributary vs trunk rivers),
sediment supply-sourcing-routing and flood discharge, with variable
coupling to hillslopes and glaciated uppermost catchment regions. In
downstream, lowland areas, spatially extensive river and megafan /
distributive fluvial systems develop thick sediment-soil sequences,
providing high resolution records across longer and deeper Quaternary time.
In this session, we invite researchers studying any aspect of river / fan
sediment and landform archives that informs on longer term Quaternary
landscape development (i.e. Pleistocene). We welcome studies applying
geochronology (luminescence / ESR / cosmogenic, etc) alongside novel and
integrated applications of remote sensing, geomorphology, neotectonics,
stratigraphy, sedimentology, pedology, provenance, paleohydrology and
archaeology.
