convener:Liang-Chi Wang(National Chung Cheng University, Taiwan), Neng-Ti Yu(National Tsing Hua University), Kaoru Kashima(Estuary Research Center, Shimane University, Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences, National Chung Cheng University Taiwan), Yusuke Okazaki(Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences, Graduate School of Science, Kyushu University), Chairperson:Liang-Chi Wang(National Chung Cheng University, Taiwan), Yusuke Okazaki(Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences, Graduate School of Science, Kyushu University)
In line with the Paris Agreement, the Taiwanese government declared a 'net-zero by 2050' policy to counter the ongoing global warming trend caused by anthropogenic activities. The policy was also in line with similar moves around the world, so scientists around the world have created climate models that predict changes in the climate due to foreseeable changes in CO2 and the resulting changes in sea levels.
The session aims to synthesize a 'deep time' perspective of sediment generation and coastline change from mountain to sea. The session calls for the sharing of new methods and new data that reveal sediment generation, transportation, and deposition in short time-scale or in response to large-scale climate change, such as the large and rapid temperature change after the last glaciation. The aim is to better predict the geological response to current climate change. Studies or implementations on facilities or instruments for sediment analyses are also welcome for submission.
