Microfacies and microfossils of the Mesozoic carbonate successions of the Central Appennino

Environmental training course

ImgRome, October 27-28

Rome, October 27-28, ISPRA, Via Curtatone 3
The course aims to define the current platform environments as a basis for a more detailed reconstruction of the fossils platforms. Facies of different depositional paleoenvironments of the Mesozoic, studied in the Central Apennino, will be exposed. Particular attention will be given to the relationship between microfacies and microfossils and their recognition for applicative purposes, providing a practical tool for those working on the territory and especially for those who deal with the geological survey. The training activity consists of two days of lectures. The course is addressed primarily to researchers and geologists of the Geological Surveys, of the Regional and Provincial Environmental Agencies, of other public institutions and to university students, for a maximum of 50/60 people.
A certificate of participation will be released and the Order of Geologists is evaluating the opportunity to recognize credits for professional upgrading.
