Integration of basin analysis and sequence stratigraphy with such areas as palaeobiology, biostratigraphy and geochemistry provides a powerful, interdisciplinary approach to reconstruct past environmental scenarios and biodiversity dynamics.

Thanks to new data, flume experiments and new techniques, insights about depositional styles and processes have emerged.

Alessandro Amorosi Department of Biological, Geological & Environmental Sciences University of Bologna, Italy

Alessandro Amorosi is Full Professor in Stratigraphy and Sedimentology at the University of Bologna, where he leads the application of sequence stratigraphy to Late Quaternary successions of fluvial, deltaic and coastal environments via sediment core analysis. He earned his M.S. degree in Geology from Bologna University and received his Ph.D. in Earth Sciences from the University of Paris in 1993. After spending years as an outcrop geologist, with a focus on condensed (glauconite- bearing) stratigraphic intervals, he has studied sediment cores from the subsurface of several alluvial, deltaic and coastal plains worldwide for the past 20 years. He has been consultant for geological surveys and oil companies. Over the last decade, he has focused his research on the high- resolution, 3D facies architecture and source-to-sink analysis of the Po Plain-Adriatic Sea system using a multiproxy approach that integrates facies analysis, paleoecology, sediment provenance and engineering disciplines. He is currently exploring the application of bulk-sediment geochemistry and chemostratigraphy in environmental research.
