PAGES Euro-Med2k working group will meet in Hoeri, Germany, from 23-25 March 2016 to discuss the Euro-Med2k database.
Logistics
The meeting will take place at Hotel Hoeri, Lake Constance http://www.hoeri-am-bodensee.de which is approximately one-hour drive from Zurich airport.
Aim
The workshop, titled "Consolidation, finalization and publication of the Euro-Med2k database", aims to generate several contributions for the synthesis special issue of PAGES 2k.
The reconstruction potential and merging limitation of the various high- to low-resolution marine and terrestrial proxy archives from the North Atlantic/European sector over the Common Era will be discussed.
