TMS sponsors the following session:
T61. Climatic and Biotic Processes through the Paleozoic, Mesozoic, and Cenozoic As Reconstructed from Microfossil Records. This session will provide an overview of microfossil contributions to the understanding of past climates and biotas. We welcome contributions from all microfossil groups aiding Paleozoic, Mesozoic and/or Cenozoic climatic and biotic reconstructions.

The International Nannoplankton Association (INA) is happy to announce NannoTalks Volume 2, starting Monday 19th April at 15:00 UTC. Tune in to our transmission on YouTube at
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iSj27AawGmQ
Our first talk will be the Role of silicon in the development of complex crystal shapes in coccolithophores by Gerald Langer. The development of calcification by the coccolithophores had a profound impact on ocean carbon cycling, but the evolutionary steps leading to the formation of these complex biomineralized structures are not clear. Advanced microscopic studies help to understand how these tiny microorganisms calcify and how some coccolithophore species recruit silicon for crystal morphogenesis.

FORAMS 2022
The Organising Committee is proud to announce you FORAMS 2022, the next International Symposium on Foraminifera to be held in Perugia (Italy). All contributions regarding or involving Foraminifera are welcome.
We will host communications about new achievements coming from any research field involving foraminiferal biology and palaeontology, including genomics, experimental biology, growth analyses, environmental sensitivity, biomineralisation, biomonitoring, palaeoecology, biostratigraphy, palaeogeography, taxonomy, oil industry, geological applications, etc…
A call for sessions will open soon, to give all researchers the opportunity for highlighting particular topics. Pre-symposiums and post-symposium fieldtrips are planned to visit localities where both modern and fossil foraminifera can be observed/sampled.
We’ll be able to host workshops and scientific meetings upon request. Please keep checking the website as in the next few weeks it will be populated with info, news and calls for sessions!
Deadlines:
- Call for field trips: 31 December 2020
- Call for sessions: 30 August 2021
- Early bird registration: 31 December 2021
- Abstract submission: 1 April 2022
Organising Committee:
- Antonino Briguglio (Genova, Italy)
- Giulia Margaritelli (Perugia, Italy)
- Cesare A. Papazzoni (Modena, Italy)
- Maria Rose Petrizzo (Milano, Italy)
- Roberto Rettori (Perugia, Italy)
