The following talks were included in the symposium (click on the highlighted
names to read the abstracts):
William
Arnott: Combined-flow bedforms: their character, significance and application
Gail
Ashley and Norman Smith: Marine sedimentation at a subpolar calving-ice
margin, Antarctica
Ellen
Avery and Mark Johnsson: Source rock, geomorphic and chemical weathering
influences on grain size distributions of fluvial sands
John
Bridge and Jim Best: Preservation of planar laminae due to migration
of low-relief bedwaves over aggrading upper stage plane beds: comparison
of experimental data with theory
Rick Cheel and Andreas Udri: Experiments on the
sequence and behavior of upper flow regime bedforms
Robert
Dalrymple, Elaine Baker, Michael Hughes and Peter Harris: Geomorphology
and sedimentology of the muddy, tide-dominated Fly River Delta, Papua,
New Guinea
Gerald M. Friedman:
The history of sedimentology
Bryce
M. Hand: Inverse grading resulting from differential (size-dependent)
sediment transport velocities
R.
Hesse: New sidescan sonar observations from the Labrador Sea concerning
the drainage of the Laurentide ice-sheet into the deep sea
Richard
N. Hiscott, Carlos Pirmez, and Roger Flood: Amazon Fan sand turbidites
revealed in wire-line logs and cores from ODP Leg 155
Dale Leckie: Emplacement and re-working of
diamond-bearing crater facies kimberlinte in Albian sediments of central
Saskatchewan, Canada
Paul Brogly and
Peter Martini: The Queenston Formation: shale-dominated,
mixed terrigenous carbonate deposits of Late Ordovician, semiarid, muddy
shores in Ontario, Canada
Greg
Nadon: Compaction in non-marine sediment - What's wrong with this picture?
George
Pemberton: Biogenic chaos: trace fossils and the preservation of sedimentary
structures
Roger
Walker: Channel-levee complexes in ancient turbidites
The symposium was a great success and Dale Leckie and I collected manuscripts from some of the participants. The papers were published in the March, 1997, issue of Geoscience Canada.
