3rd PAGES Varves Working Group Workshop
March 21-23, 2012 in Manderscheid, Eifel, Germany(2 days earlier and only 340 km South of the INTIMATE workshop)
The Varves Working Group (VWG) was established under the frame of the PAGES Cross Cutting Themes 1 “Chronology” and 2 “Proxy development, calibration, validation”. The purpose of the VWG is to gather the varve community together and to bridge the gaps between people working with sedimentary varves and other communities dealing with annually resolved records.
This third workshop will be focussed on how we can improve deciphering climatic and environmental signals contained in varved sediments by applying process-related complementary studies and what can we learn from other communities investigating non-sedimentary annually resolved records in terms of proxy development, calibration and validation.
