Pag.11 GUIDELINES Oral presentation Oral presentations are 12 minutes + 2 minutes for questions, 1 minute is reserved for setting up the following presentation (15 minutes in total). “Short orals” in the Open session of sedimentological studies are 3 mins at maximum. Please ensure your presentation does not exceed these time limits. Please prepare your oral presentation in a Power Point (ppt, pptx) or pdf format named “Lastname_firstname_sessionnumber.ppt(x)/pdf”. The presentation will be displayed on screen by video projector. Authors are requested to upload their presentations directly in the slide centre, located in the Earth Science Department (Room 12) within the half-day before the beginning of the oral block. Assistance will be available for help. It will be not possible to load the presentations in the meeting rooms, they must be brought to the speaker ready room to be loaded centrally. Session Keynote Talks Key-note presentations for each session are 20 minutes plus 9 minutes for questions, 1 minute is reserved for setting up the following presentation (30 mins in total). Instruction for preparation are the same as for the standard oral presentations (see above). Authors should keep in mind that SKTs have been given double time (30’ including questions, instead than 15’) as they are supposed to illustrate a specific research framing it in the more general context of the present-day state of the knowledge in their field. The aim is 1) to attract specialists in other fields that like to have a sense of what is going on in different scientific areas and 2) to stimulate discussion among colleagues (9’ have been foreseen for that). POSTER PRESENTATION Poster will be in PORTRAIT format, should not be larger than A0 (118cm height and 84cm width). Any poster printed in landscape or larger than A0 may not be shown. Poster display time is 08:30 to 19:00 daily in Museum of Classical Arts but poster session is from 17 pm to 19 pm, (on Friday from 16 pm to 18 pm), according to the session program. The authors are expected to be available for presentation next to their poster during poster sessions. Presenters have access to the Museo di Arte Classica from 8.30 am each morning and they are responsible of setup of their poster in the morning. Assistance will be available for help and to provide fixing material. Posters should be removed by authors by the end of the session.

CODE of CONDUCT The IAS (International Association of Sedimentologists) is a premier, international scientific association dedicated to the publication, discussion, and interchange of research results in sedimentary geology. The purpose of the IAS Code of Conduct is to ensure that all activities sponsored by the IAS are in agreement with the generally accepted ethics rules and the mission of IAS. Leading principles are honesty, carefulness, transparency, openness, independence, responsibility, and democracy. IAS meetings, which are open to IAS and non-IAS members including those interested in and from neighbouring disciplines, are among the most respected scientific meetings in the global field of sedimentology. IAS-sponsored meetings foster the exchange of scientific ideas through respectful and open dialogue. Together with the IAS, the meeting organizers are committed to providing a safe, productive, and welcoming environment for all participants. All meeting participants, including but not limited to attendees, speakers, volunteers, exhibitors, staff, service providers, are expected to abide by the IAS Code of Conduct. This Code of Conduct applies to all IAS meeting-related events. IAS considers the neglect of these rules as being equal to a scientific misconduct. Treat all participants with equal respect and consideration. Critique ideas rather than individuals. Avoid personal attacks directed toward other participants and organizations. Be mindful of your surroundings and of your fellow participants. Alert event organizers if you notice a potentially dangerous situation, unsafe behaviour or someone in distress. Respect the rules and policies of the host country, meeting venue, hotels, contracted facility, and/or any other venue. Permission must be sought from the presenter or author to take photographs, movies or to undertake other forms of recording of any presentation.

Emergent Behavior and Emerging Methods in Carbonate Depositional Environments

A universal characteristic of a Reef systems exhibit at least two behaviors consistent with self- complex system is that the whole is greater than, and often organization as a structuring force. First, 30% of platform- significantly different from, the simple linear sum of its parts. In interior reefs globally exhibit reticular regular patterning, a many instances, the whole appears to act in a manner behavior recognized as far back as the Upper Paleozoic (e.g. dissociated from the specific characteristics of its individual Purkis et al., 2005). Second, the patterning of modern and building blocks. Reef ecosystems are a case in point. No ancient reef systems displays remarkably universal, systematic, individual reef architect has any sense of the grand enterprise and predictable relationships which describe how the shape to which it is contributing. But as a collective ecosystem, vast and separation of depositional elements scale with size (Fig. carbonate edifices are constructed with a coherent and 1D). Whereas the processes underpinning these remarkable intricate morphology (Fig. 1, for instance). This collective regularities are poorly understood, their existence suggests a outcome, in which a system manifests significantly different common conceptual framework to underly the patterning of characteristics from those resulting from simply adding up all of both modern and ancient reefs, regardless of their biological the constituent parts, is termed ‘emergent behavior’. A special architects – surely an excellent hunting ground for comparative case of emergent behavior is ‘self-organization’, where the sedimentologists. constituents of a system agglomerate themselves to form the With the production and accumulation of carbonate fabrics emergent whole. intrinsically tied to life, any advance in the understanding of the Although there have been many efforts to evaluate complexity myriad of organism-environment feedbacks that serve to in shallow-water carbonate deposits, studies in this realm have structure carbonate depositional systems over geological primarily focused on long-term and large-scale processes, such timescales, will also aid in understanding function over shorter as the provision of accommodation space (e.g. between ecological timescales. Again, this is particularly true for coral greenhouse and icehouse climatic regimes) and the facies reefs. With compelling evidence that half the world’s reefs geometries that these changes yield.

It is recognized too ecosystem. that these components display a myriad of organism-environment feedbacks operating on different length scales. Configured as such, carbonate depositional environments have the potential to generate complex facies anatomies through self- organization. And, as coral reefs illustrate with depressing effectiveness, a small perturbation in one part of a self-organized system can have radical consequences elsewhere. In 1983- 1984, for instance, the sea urchin Diadema antillarum suffered mass mortality throughout the Caribbean. On face value, an inconsequential component of a sprawling reef ecosystem, but the demise of this herbivore contributed to a disastrous phase shift of the region’s reefs from coral to algal-dominated, a configuration which persists today. Such are the non-linear sensitivities of complex ecosystems and the motivation for understanding them.

The sequence stratigraphy of coastal plain and alluvial deposits: A look into the future using the Quaternary record

Alessandro Amorosi - University of Bologna, Italy

Over the past two decades, the sequence stratigraphy of stratigraphic architecture and environmental evolution in Quaternary alluvial, deltaic, and coastal successions has response to glacial–interglacial fluctuations and base-level expanded in an exciting direction of research. In recent years, changes; Quaternary geology has become relevant to the oil and gas changes in tectonic forcing during the narrow time window of exploration and shallow subsurface Late Pleistocene to the late Quaternary are at a minimum, and primary Holocene datasets have been increasingly used at sub-seismic stratigraphic relations between adjacent depositional systems scales for the characterization of reservoir architecture and are commonly preserved; prediction of petrophysical properties. Recent advances in late Quaternary paleogeography was quite similar to the unconventional reservoir characterization have placed modern, and comparable sediment-routing systems developed, significant attention on mud dispersal, deposition, and with only minor changes in depositional regimes and river diagenesis, emphasizing the need for a multi-disciplinary network under glacial (lowstand) conditions; approach to the facies analysis of mud-prone sediment bodies. late Quaternary fossil assemblages closely resemble modern Holocene successions worldwide exhibit recurring and bioassemblages and therefore can serve as a basis for detailed predictable motifs in stratigraphic architecture and shoreline and accurate facies interpretation; trajectory that can be delineated objectively and that reflect Quaternary cores allow accurate characterization of mud- the overwhelming dominance of post-glacial eustatic change on dominated facies, often obscure in outcrop.

Pre-conference short course Sr-isotope stratigraphy (SIS): Methods, applications and limitations Offered by Gianluca Frijia (University of Ferrara, Italy); Cost: 50€; 9 September; CONTACT: [email protected]. In the last years the use of 87Sr/86Sr for stratigraphic purposes, as a high-resolution tool of chronostratigraphic dating and correlation of marine sediments, has increased dramatically. The so-called Strontium Isotope Stratigraphy (SIS), relies on the fact that the 87Sr/86Sr value of the ocean varied through geological time and that the composition of the ocean waters is homogeneous with regards to Sr isotopes at any time due to the long residence time of Sr in the oceans. However, despite the high potential of SIS, some possible shortcomings may severely complicate its application (e.g. diagenesis). The objective of the course is to give an introduction to the method and a guideline for the correct use of SIS showing that a rigid procedure is mandatory to apply this chemostratigraphic method correctly. The main applications and limitations will be discussed in detail by means of several examples from around the world where SIS has been applied successfully. The course will consist of by lessons and practical exercises derived from case studies

Intra-Meeting (Thursday) Workshop 1. On the rocks: Looking at cores to discover the secrets of giant reservoirs

Ornella Borromeo and Marco Fonnesu (Eni Upstream & technical Services, Italy); CONTACT [email protected]

Core and core samples, although not routinely collected during oil and gas E&P activities, represent key elements for building sedimentological models in the subsurface, as well as for understanding and characterizing the reservoir systems. Cores are the only data allowing to perform direct analyses of the rocks lying in the subsurface, thus providing information like those that would be collected by studying an outcrop. Sedimentological and petrophysical information are also used to calibrate indirect subsurface data as well-logs and seismic. In the last decades a variety of new approaches, including advanced techniques, have been developed to discover the characteristics of the reservoir from the core. Along the workshop, two unique datasets coming from Eni recent giant discoveries will be presented to demonstrate how they are integrated with well-logs and seismic data: The Mamba/Coral mixed turbidite-contourite clastic system (offshore Mozambique) which processes interaction provides excellent reservoir characteristics in the axial part of deep water channel complexes. The Zohr shelf carbonate system (offshore Egypt) which provides a peculiar subsurface example of Mesozoic circum Mediterranean carbonate platform characterized by high reservoir quality.

Giovanna Della Porta (University of Milan, Italy), Enrico Capezzuoli (University of Florence, Italy), Alessandro Mancini (University of Perugia, Italy); CONTACT: [email protected]; [email protected]

The core workshop aims at observing the travertine facies characteristics and their vertical superposition in cores drilled in the Pleistocene hydrothermal travertines quarried in the Tivoli area, east of Rome. This well-known travertine deposits, named by the Romans as lapistiburtinus, were used for the construction of important buildings such as the Colosseum (70-80 AD). Since the fundamental studies by Chafetz and Folk (1984), travertines have attracted the interest of the academia and industry as important archives of information about physico- chemical vs. biologically influenced processes of carbonate precipitation in terrestrial conditions, palaeoclimatic and tectonic records and as potential water and hydrocarbon reservoirs. The detailed core analysis will focus on the identification of the different fabric types, their porosity and permeability and interpretation of the depositional environments. This information will be integrated with observation of travertine facies on the Sapienza University building walls with a walk through the University Campus The workshop is divided in three parts: a) an introduction to travertine facies types, precipitation processes and depositional environments; b) travertine core analysis and facies description; and c) a walk across the University Campus buildings.

. PRE-CONFERENCE FIELDTRIPS .

A1 - Microbial carbonate reservoirs architecture: from depositional facies to seismic scale geometries in the Triassic of the Dolomites (Italy) 3 days, 450€ Venice(7th) to Rome (9th) Leaders: Giovanni Gattolin, Roberto Longoni (Eni Upstream and Technical Services), Marco Franceschi (University of Padua, Italy) and Piero Gianolla (University of Ferrara, Italy) Contacts: [email protected]; [email protected] arbonate platforms represent economically significant targets for hydrocarbon exploration and production. Such types of reservoirs are liable to display a large variability in their characteristics, affecting both performance and economic viability, hence, outcrop analogs can provide key information for their interpretation in the subsurface. Microbial carbonate platforms, rare today, are common in the Paleozoic and Mesozoic record when they reached considerable size and developed unique and characteristic facies associations and depositional geometries. They form giant reservoirs e.g. in the Paleozoic of the Pre-Caspian area or in the Cenozoic of the Far East. This field-trip will be held in the Dolomites that feature a collection of microbial Triassic carbonate platforms, with the aim of providing a multiscale understanding of such carbonate systems ranging from depositional facies distribution and architecture to their relations with tectonic setting and climate. Participants will have the opportunity to visit exceptional outcrops where platforms can be examined from the facies level up to seismic-scale depositional geometries. The fieldtrip will focus on the Middle-Upper Triassic with key stops in localities such as the Latemar Platform, the Sella Platform and the Cinque Torri-Tofane nearby Cortina d’Ampezzo.

A2 - Tidal channels and saltmarshes of the Venice Lagoon (Italy): from morphodynamics to sedimentary products 3 days, 450€ Venice(7th) to Venice (9th) Leaders: Massimiliano Ghinassi, Andrea D’Alpaos, Alvise Finotello and Sonia Silvestri (University of Padua, Italy) Contacts: [email protected]; [email protected] Venice and its lagoon are registered in the UNESCO World Heritage List of sites of outstanding universal value and offer an outstanding example of coexistence between human activities and natural processes. The Venice Lagoon represents an unique laboratory to investigate accumulation of saltmarshes and tidal-channel deposits under variable rates of subsidence and sediment supply. The most naturally preserved areas of the northern lagoon will be visited during this trip. These areas are characterized by low (i.e. 2.0 mm/yr) subsidence rate, which is mainly balanced by clastic sedimentation. Saltmarshes, tidal flats, tidal creeks and channels will be visited. Sediment-peels of cores recovered from these different depositional sub-environments will be shown during the trip, and their characteristics will be discussed in terms of sedimentary processes and dynamics.

A4 - From Messinian to Pleistocene: tectonic evolution and stratigraphic architecture of the Central Adriatic Foredeep (Abruzzo and Marche, Central Italy)4 days, 500€ Rome (6th) to Rome (9th) Leaders: Claudio Di Celma, Alan Pitts (University of Camerino, Italy); Andrea Artoni (University of Parma, Italy); Manlio Ghielmi (Eni S.p.A.); Giuseppe Serafini (Eni S.p.A.) Contacts: [email protected]; [email protected] The Central portion of the Periadriatic Basin is a N-S oriented foreland basin system associated to the Central Apennine Outer Orogenic Wedge. This system stretches along the Marche and Abruzzi regions and is an excellent example of an evolving mountain chain and associated deep-marine to fluvial-alluvial foredeep and wedge-top basins system. This 3 and a half-day trip has been designed to give an overview of the stratigraphic architecture and evolutionary steps of the basin by integrating surface and subsurface datasets. It affords a fine west to east transect through the Messinian-Pleistocene basin fill in Abruzzo and Marche, where outcrops allow a close examination of sedimentary facies and architecture of depositional systems. The basin fill succession includes turbidites, coarse-grained submarine canyon fills and shallow-water depositional settings. The analysis of facies architecture and discontinuity surfaces will allow the attendees to understand the relative role of climate, sediment supply, and thrust front propagation inside the foreland basins system as several factors controlling the stratigraphic record.

Pag.29 A5 - Lacustrine deposits of the late Piacenzian-Gelasian L’Aquila intermontane basin (Central Italy) 2 days, 180€ Rome (8th) to Rome (9th) Leaders: Domenico Cosentino (University of Roma Tre, Italy), Biagio Giaccio (CNR-IGAG, Italy), Elsa Gliozzi (University of Roma Tre, Italy), Marco Nocentini (CNR-IGAG, Italy), Giorgio Pipponzi (USRC-L’Aquila, Italy), Marco Spadi (University of L’Aquila, Italy), Marco Tallini (University of L’Aquila, Italy) Contacts: [email protected]; [email protected] The field trip will visit the lacustrine deposits of one of the oldest intermontane basins of Central Italy: the tectonically active L’Aquila Basin. This sedimentary basin developed during the late Piacenzian-Gelasian syn-rift stage that affected Central Italy in a post-orogenic tectonic phase. Deep lacustrine deposits, consisting of massive and/or thinly laminated white calcareous silt (Limi di San Nicandro Auct.) with tephra layers, characterize the stratigraphic succession of this intermontane basin. A four Caspiocypris species-flock (Ostracoda), together with sponge spicules and molluscs, define the fossil content of the lacustrine deposits of L’Aquila Basin. A shallowing upward trend is recognizable in the lacustrine deposits that crop out in the PoggioPicenze-Castelnuovo area. In the L’Aquila Basin, a complete facies tract from deep lacustrine facies (e.g., San Nicandro Fm) to subaerial slope deposits (e.g., Valle Valiano Fm), through well-developed delta and coastal facies (e.g., Petogna and Bominaco), defines the late Piacenzian-Gelasian sedimentary succession of this ancient lacustrine basin.

A6 - Late Quaternary coastal deposits of West Sardinia: from pocket beaches to barrier-lagoon systems 3 days, 380€ Alghero (7th) to Rome (9th) Leaders: Stefano Andreucci(University of Cagliari, Italy), Daniele Sechi (University of Sassari, Italy),Vincenzo Pascucci (University of Sassari, Italy), Giulia Cossu (University of Sassari, Italy); Contacts: [email protected]; [email protected]

The field trip will visit stunning exposures along the West coast of Sardinia island. Pocket beaches dominated by sand-and- gravel shallow marine deposits and intertidal algal bindstones along with well-developed sandy strandplain and barrier- lagoon systems will be examined. Field evidence, existing published information and novel Luminescence dates will provide many opportunities for discussing climate and sea-level variations that have influenced the evolution of West Sardinia since the penultimate Interglacial stage (MIS 7). First day: we will visit outcrops along the coast from Alghero to Bosa to examine MIS 5 pocket beaches and strandplain systems dominated by sandy-gravelly shallow marine deposits, intertidal algal bindstones, coastal dunes and colluvial/alluvial bodies. Overnight stay in Bosa. Second day: A single stop (San Giovanni di Sinis) to visit the most complete Pleistocene succession of West Sardinia where impressive spit and barrier-lagoon systems crops out. Overnight stay in Alghero. Third day: A single stop (Rena Majore) to examine a small-incised valley succession characterized by coastal apron-fan (debris-flows and water-flows) systems resting on a pocket beach. There will be opportunities and time for swimming in a marvellous sea.

A8 - Between Scylla and Charybdis: Tidal sedimentary dynamics of the Early Pleistocene Messina Strait (Calabria, southern Italy) based on its modern analogue 3 days, 520€Lamezia Terme (7th) to Rome (9th) Leaders: Sergio G. Longhitano (University of Basilicata, Italy), Domenico Chiarella (Royal Holloway University, London), Marcello Gugliotta (Chiba University, Japan); Contacts: [email protected]

During the Early Pleistocene, the Messina Strait between Sicily and Calabria was a ca. 10-15-km-wide and 40-km-long, tide- dominated marine passageway, with a sedimentary dynamics analogous to its modern and narrower counterpart. Today, 250-m-thick strait-fill strata crop out on the two opposite margins (Scylla and Charybdis) of the modern strait, preserving the sedimentary record of a variety of processes and environments and their feedback with a dominant tidal dynamics. During this 3-days-long field trip, attendances will be introduced to the complex tidal dynamics of tidal straits and the erosional/depositional phenomena resulting from tidal flow convergence/divergence and consequent tidal amplification. Participants will be familiarized with typical strait-center, strait-end and strait-margin facies and on the architectures of strait-axis tidal cross-strata complexes, well exposed in a number of easily-accessible sections. During the visit at the various stops, direct linkages between the observed sedimentary facies and the modern tidal dynamics of the present-day Messina Strait will be constantly considered, aiming at promoting open-minded, critical discussions on the sedimentary dynamics of the ancient Messina passage.

IM1 – Volcanic sequence and hydrothermalism as planetary analogues: examples from quiescent volcanoes in the Naples area (Italy) 1 day (Thursday, Sept. 12) 100€ Rome to Rome Leaders: Lucia Marinangeli (University G. d’Annunzio of Chieti, Italy), Monica Piochi (Osservatorio Vesuviano, Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia, Naples, Italy), Barbara Cavalazzi (University of Bologna, Italy), Gianluca Iezzi (Università G. d’Annunzio of Chieti, Italy). Contacts: [email protected]; [email protected] The field trip focuses on pyroclastic deposits of the Campi Flegrei volcanisms, plus its on-going hydrothermal activity (CO2 and S-rich water vapor). This activity can reappraise planetary environments. We will observe spectacular outcrops of deposits across the Campanian Ignimbrite and Neapolitan Yellow Tuff volcanism, dated back at 40 and 15 kyrs. Sedimentological, textural, mineralogic, and petrographic features from primary origin and exceptional secondary hydrothermal transformations of these deposits will help linking and favor different perspective on interpretation of extra-terrestrial planetary rocks. The itinerary includes a trip through the solfataric landscapes developed on the Solfatara volcanic structures to observe the acid sulfate hydrothermal system and discuss its potentiality as analogue to host life in other planets. The field trip will end with a walk to the Vesuvius summit to observe the most famous volcanic cone and its most recent volcanic sequence while enjoying a wonderful view of the Gulf of Naples.

IM2 - 79 A.D. pyroclastic successions in archaeological sites of Somma-Vesuvius (southern Italy) 1 day (Thursday, Sept. 12) 120€ Rome to Rome Leaders: Paola Petrosino and Claudio Scarpati (University of Naples Federico II, Italy) Contacts: [email protected]; [email protected] The field trip focuses on field features of pyroclastic deposits in two archaeological sites of the perivolcanic area of Vesuvius. We will use deposit characteristics to discuss transport and depositional mechanisms of Plinian events. The whole sequence of the pyroclastic deposits of the well-known 79 A.D. eruption will be observed and described at Pompeii or Herculaneum and Oplontis (a patrician villa located in the Torre Annunziata neighbourhood, also known as Villa di Poppea) archaeological excavations. The 79 AD sequence starts with pyroclastic fall deposit emplaced by the sustained column phase of the Plinian eruption embedded to minor pyroclastic density current deposits. Later pyroclastic currents aggraded massive to stratified deposits showing vertical and lateral facies variations. Both the sites offer the possibility to investigate the relationship between the types of pyroclastic deposits and their effects on Roman buildings and victims, and starting from the respective destructive power, supply some hints on present volcanic hazard assessment. Moreover, both the sites will put the visitors in touch with the life in the Vesuvian area during Roman age.

IM3 - The Mesozoic carbonates of the Amalfi Coast: facies and dolomitization across time 1 day (Thursday, Sept. 12) 120€ Rome to Rome Leaders: Alessandro Iannace, Mariano Parente (University Federico II of Naples, Italy) Contacts: [email protected] The fieldtrip aims at illustrating contrasting dolomitization styles affecting the Norian to Upper Cretaceous shallow water carbonate succession along the Amalfi Coast, in one of the most beautiful scenarios of the Mediterranean Sea. Along with the field examples of various dolomitization and diagenetic processes (early stratabound, late shallow burial, fracture-related dolomitization, evaporite silicification), the main carbonate platform biofacies of the Mesozoic will be shown, which are good analogues for coeval successions of the eastern Mediterranean and the Middle East. Geochemical data, both as a stratigraphic and diagenetic tool, will be discussed, as well as mechanical stratigraphy results gathered in calcareous- dolomitic Cretaceous successions in a perspective of reservoir characterization.

Pag.31 IM4 - The depositional architecture of the Pleistocene deposits of the Roman Basin 1 day (Thursday, Sept. 12) 50€ Rome to Rome Leaders: Salvatore Milli, Daniel Tentori (Sapienza University of Rome, Italy); Mattia Marini (University of Milan, Italy) Contacts: [email protected]; [email protected]

The Roman Basin represents one of the extensional basins, developed starting from the Late Pliocene along the central sector of Latium Tyrrhenian margin. The sediment filling this basin were transported and deposited by the Tiber river and its tributaries and were attributed to fluvial, coastal, deltaic and shelf depositional systems. Several studies suggest that stratigraphic and depositional architecture the Roman Basin is the result of the close interaction among tectonic uplift, volcanic activity, and glacio-eustatic sea-level fluctuations. The aims of this field trip will be the sedimentology and the sequence stratigraphy of these deposits and how they are organized in relation to the interaction between the three main processes mentioned above.

IM6 - Sabellaria bioconstructions and their Plio-Pleistocene substratum along the southern Latium coast (Tor Caldara, Anzio) 1 day (Thursday, Sept. 12) 30€ Rome to Rome Leaders: Massimo Moretti and Stefania Lisco (University of Bari, Italy), Maria Flavia Gravina (University of Tor Vergata, Rome, Italy), Marco Brandano and Laura Tomassetti (Sapienza University of Rome, Italy) Contacts: [email protected]; [email protected] The field trip winds through beaches and cliffs of the southern Latium coast. It is centered on some unusual present-day worm reefs that crop out in the Tor Caldara beach (a). Sabellaria alveolata is a sedentary annelid polychaete that builds hummocks, mounds and actual bioconstructions with a structure similar to honeycombs; the worm captures sands with specific grain-size forming intriguing arenaceous tubes. The field trip will show also some Plio-Pleistocene marine successions that crop out in the Anzio area. The older marine units are exposed along the cliffs that contain also the remains of the Imperial Nerone Villa (b). Here, regular metric clinoforms are locally cut by slide scars. The younger Pleistocene deposits form a regressive marine succession (from shelf shales to backshore aeolian sandstones) that is visible close to the Tor Caldara locality. The uppermost portion of this succession crops out in the Martian landscape of the Natural Reserve of Tor Caldara, where sulfuric fluids coming from the adjacent Solfatara, paints the Pleistocene deposits with astonishing colors (c).

B1 - The Messinian sediments of the Tertiary Piedmont Basin: a record of the Messinian Salinity Crisis and of circulation of gas-rich fluids 2 days, 270€ Rome (13th) to Turin (15th) Leaders: Francesco Dela Pierre, Luca Martire, Marcello Natalicchio (University of Torino, Italy) Contacts: [email protected] The fieldtrip aims at illustrating the stratigraphic architecture of the Upper Messinian sediments including the record of the Messinian salinity crisis (MSC) and the effects of circulation of methane-rich fluids through the sedimentary column before and during the crisis itself. The succession includes: Tortonian and lower Messinian slope marls and organic-rich shales which record progressively more restricted conditions heralding the advent of the MSC and contain CH4-derived carbonates including Lucinid-rich chemoherms and a wide array of fossil-free stratabound and cylindrical concretions; primary evaporites e.g. selenitic and cumulate gypsum interbedded with shales and marls deposited during the first phase of the MSC (5.97-5.60 Ma); clastic gypsum sediments and mass wasting deposits, including both gypsum blocks and masses of CH4-derived carbonates, representing the product of the second phase of the MSC (5.60-5.55 Ma). The products of circulation of gas-rich fluids during the Messinian in older (Oligocene), coarse-grained clastic sediments will also be shown which resulted in huge masses of strongly cemented sediments crossed by a complex network of polyphase dykes and carbonate-filled veins.

B2 -Control exerted by collisional tectonics on basin topography and depositional styles: the Tertiary Piedmont Basin (TPB) in the Alps-Apennines Junction (NW Italy). 5 days, 600€ Rome (14th) to Milan (18th) Leaders: Andrea Di Giulio and Chiara Amadori (University of Pavia, Italy); Fabrizio Felletti and Mattia Marini (University of Milan, Italy); Marco Patacci (University of Leeds, UK); Massimo Rossi (Eni Upstream & Technical Services, Italy) Contacts: [email protected]; [email protected]

Pag.32 34th I.A.S. meeting -Sedimentology to face societal challenges on risk, resources and record of the past

The field trip illustrates the Late Eocene-Miocene changes in depositional style of the infill of the Tertiary Piedmont Basin (TPB) in a stratigraphic perspective, relating them to major paleogeographic reorganization linked to Alpine and Apennine tectonics. A variety of depositional systems will be examined including alluvial, marginal marine, shelf and intra-slope and basin-plain turbidites. Outcrop observations will be integrated with photogrammetric models and seismics from time- equivalent buried examples from the area. Topics covered include: 1) relationships between morphostructural elements and origin of classical sequence boundaries driven by relative sea level falls vs. hinged-margin drowning unconformities driven by hinged accommodation on oversteepened shelf margins; 2) morphologies of deep-water erosion; 3) controls of basin morphology on development of turbidite facies and architecture; 4) petrography of turbidite sandstones and mudstones and implications for origin and source of mud-grade sediments; 5) implications for characterization of analogue plays and reservoirs.

B5 - Foredeep turbidites of the Northern and Central Apennines: Marnoso-arenacea and Laga Formations 5 days, 500€ Rome (14th) to Rome (18th) Leaders: Salvatore Milli (Sapienza University of Rome, Italy); Roberto Tinterri, Alberto Piazza (University of Parma, Italy); Mattia Marini (University of Milan, Italy); Massimiliano Moscatelli (CNR-IGAG, Istituto di Geologia Ambientale e Geoingegneria, Rome, Italy) Contacts: [email protected]; [email protected] Turbidite deposits developed in structurally confined basins show depositional elements as channels, lobes, and basin plains featuring highly variable facies, complex geometries and characteristic hierarchies, which can be analysed only through a detailed examination of outcrops and the measure of several stratigraphic -sedimentological sections. To this purpose exceptionally good exposures are required. The Miocene foredeep turbidite deposits of the Marnoso-arenacea and Laga Formations satisfy this condition and provide a large amount of quantitative information. In this field trip we will discuss about the origin, provenance and evolution of the flows related to these turbidite successions as well as the main facies and physical stratigraphic features. At the same time we will also discuss about the relationships between tectonic and sedimentation of these basins in the context of the northern and Central Apennines Miocene foreland basin system.

B7 - Paleocene to Quaternary stratigraphic evolution of Majella Carbonate Platform (Central Apennines); From geological and archeological events to the potential carbonate reservoir 2 days, 190€ Rome (14th) to Rome (15th) Leaders: Marco Brandano, Laura Tomassetti, Irene Cornacchia (Sapienza University of Rome, Italy); Luis Pomar (University of the Balearic Islands); Silvano Agostini (Soprintendenza Archeologia dell’Abruzzo, Italy) Contacts: [email protected] Excellent continuous exposures of Paleocene to Miocene carbonate ramp deposits along the Majella NNW flank (e.g. Orfento and S. Bartolomeo valleys), allow to investigate facies changes both along and across the ramp environment. Relationships among sedimentary structures and depositional processes, among stratigraphic architecture and syn/post-depositional tectonics are investigated and discussed. Moreover, extensive well known bitumen shows, found both along fractured zones and in the rock matrix, are analysed and possible controlling factors are discussed. The Majella Mountain is also characterized by several archaeological, historical and artistic testimonies dating back to the earliest prehistory. They consist of Paleolithic open air sites, Neolithic and metal age settlements. The rock art date from the Paleolithic (black or red anthropomorphic paintings) to the Middle Ages up to historical times. The Valle Giumentina Pleistocene open-air site represents one of the most important Paleolithic site in the area and is closely located to many of the archaeological and historical sites described above.
