  • Registration closes soon for the 2024 Structural Geology and Tectonics Biennial Forum, June 24-27,

    We are excited to see you in beautiful northwest Washington this June for the 7th biennial SGT Forum, held at Western Washington University. 

    Field trips 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 be counted in the group meals, to reserve on-campus housing, and to grab a spot in the workshops and field trips.  Registration closes May 31 June 3.

    Submit an abstract! Your contribution shapes the meeting. The heart of the forum is informal conversation around SGT topics. Expect lively poster sessions, a variety of short talks, and conversations about central concerns in our discipline. Bring an update on your work in progress, share highlights from your recent publication, raise a question to discuss, or pose an intriguing hypothesis. The abstract deadline is May 31 June 3. (And if you need a few days beyond that, just ask.)


    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!

  • GSA 2024: Rio Grande Rift session (T177)

    Hello all,
    Please consider submitting an abstract to session "T177. The Rio Grande Rift: Exploring Connections between Deformation, Magmatism, Metamorphism, Sedimentation, Mineralization, and Mantle-to-Surface Processes during Continental Extension." organized by Alyssa Abbey, Alex Tye, Jason Ricketts, and Joshua Rosera. 
    The session has a broad scope, and we welcome any submission highlighting advances in understanding continental rift systems. If you or any students you are working with have work you would wish to present, we would encourage you to consider submitting an abstract. Our sessions' invited speaker is Jessica Jobe (USGS), and the session has been endorsed by the Geochronology, Structural Geology and Tectonics, Sedimentary Geology, and Mineralogy, Geochemistry, Petrology, and Volcanology, and Soils and Soil Processes divisions of GSA.

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.
