2024 Structural Geology and Tectonics Biennial Forum, June 24-27, Bellingham WA
We are excited to see you in beautiful northwest Washington this June for the 7th biennial SGT Forum, held at Western Washington University. Themes this year include subduction zone geology, deformation of mafic and ultramafic rocks, collisional and transpressional orogens, earthquake geology, magnetic fabrics, and field-geology instruction -- and we welcome contributions on other topics. We will offer field trips to the San Juan Islands, North Cascades, and Twin Sisters dunite, and workshops on magnetic fabrics, deformation in ultramafic rocks, and a StraboSpot community input session.
Field trip(s) and workshops are scheduled for Monday and Thursday (June 24 and 27). We will meet on campus Tuesday and Wednesday June 25 and 26 for posters, talks, panel discussions and conversation over shared meals.
Register now to sign up for field trips and workshops and for on-campus housing. Registration closes May 31.
We encourage you to submit an abstract to share your research. The abstract deadline is May 31.
Forum registration, meals, field trips and workshops are no cost to participants, thanks to a grant from NSF Tectonics Program and sponsorship from the GSA Structural Geology and Tectonics Division. Thank you to both organizations!
