UPDATES ON THE CHRONOLOGY, STRATIGRAPHY AND ENVIRONMENTS OF THE LAST GLACIAL MAXIMUM AND THE LATE GLACIAL ON THE SOUTHERN SIDE OF THE ALPS

Abstract

The AIQUA workshop, sponsored by the TERPRO and SACCOM INQUA Commissions and by the IGG-CNR and the Department of Geosciences of the University of Padova, was held at the Department of Geosciences of Padova, on June 22nd -23nd, 2017 (scientific and organizing committee: P. Mozzi, G. Monegato, A. Fontana, S. Rossato). The workshop focused on the geomorphic, sedimentary and palaeoenvironmental events that occurred in the southern Alpine region and related Po Plain, Venetian-Friulian Plain and Adriatic basin during the Last Glacial Maximum and the Late Glacial. About 60 participants attended the workshop, with nine solicited talks, five short communications and posters, and ample time devoted to discussion. The second day consisted in a field trip in the Venetian Prealps.
