The Carbonate Forum 2026

The IAS is sponsoring The Carbonate Forum 2026 which is being hosted by SedsOnline. The Carbonate Forum aims to bring together those working across the whole breadth of carbonate research to foster discussion and share knowledge and ideas. It gives a voice to those scientists in the early stages of their career who are often at the forefront of scientific advances but who are not always able to attend international conferences.

In association with the Forum there is an opportunity to propose field trips, lab visits or workshops under the theme "Local Rocks for Local People".
