ILP Workshop
Lithosphere Dynamics and Sedimentary Basins: The Arabian Plate and Analogues
Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates • 6 - 11 December 2009


The 2009 workshop of the ILP-Task Force on Sedimentary Basins, entitled "Lithosphere dynamics and sedimentary basins: the Arabian plate and analogues", will be hosted in Abu Dhabi by the Ministry of Energy of the United Arab Emirates, on December 6 to 11.
The meeting will address:
- Lithosphere dynamics and coupling between deep and surface processes
- Geodynamics, paleogeography and tectonic evolution of the Arabian plate and its surroundings (Pre-Cambrian, Paleozoic, Mesozoic, Cenozoic, Present)
- Crustal and lithosphere architecture of the Arabian plate and its surroundings
- Basin formation and deformation (priority on Middle East basins)
- Paleo-thermometers and unroofing processes
- Basin modelling and thermal regimes
- Regional fluid transfers and dolomitization diagenesis.
