The Second International Palaeontological Congress
Beijing, China
June 17-21, 2006
The Second International Palaeontological Congress will take place in June 2006 at Bejing, China. The session T4 is sponsored by IGCP 503: Ordovician World: temporal and spatial changes in physical and biotic environments (IGCP 503). This session will be convened by Li Jun and Thomas Servais.
Symposium "Paleogeography and Global Correlation of the Ordovician Events" (PGCOE)
Novosibirsk, Russia
August 1-15, 2006
The Symposium "Paleogeography and Global Correlation of the Ordovician Events" (PGCOE) is proposed to take place in Novosibirsk in August, 2006, with the collaboration of the Palaeontological Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences of Moscow.

IGCP 503 Annual Meeting
Glasgow, Scotland
August 29 - September 1, 2006: the Meeting
September 2-4, 2006: Excursion to southern Scotland
This will be our main meeting in 2006 and it will be organised by Alan Owen. The main part of the conference will be from 30 August to 1 September with registration on Tuesday 29 August. There will be an afternoon mid-conference excursion and various evening social events including a whisky tasting. In addition, there will be a one-day pre-conference excursion including the Ordovician-Silurian boundary stratotype section at Dob's Linn on Tuesday 29 August and a 3-4 day post-conference excursion concentrating on the classical Ordovician and Silurian successions in southern Scotland at Girvan and in the Pentland Hills.
The main focus of the meeting will be on changing palaeogeographical and palaeobiogeographical patterns in the Ordovician and Silurian, but contributions on any topic relevant to the aims of IGCP 503 will be welcome.

Gondwana 12 (International Conference), Mendoza, Argentina
Mendoza, Argentina
November 1-5, 2005: Field Trip to Precordillera Terrane, Western Argentina
November 611, 2005: The Meeting
The Gondwana 12 Conference will be held in Mendoza, Argentina, 6-11 November 2005, as a joint venture between Argentina, Brazil and Chile. These are countries with a large community of geoscientists involved in different aspects of Gondwana research. They also have geological exposures of worldwide interest, to which it will be possible to organize an appropriate range of field excursions. Moreover, Argentina has the largest community of palaeontologists in South America, many of them working on the evolution of Gondwana flora and fauna. Thus this meeting should incorporate a strong biological and palaeontological theme in addition to the basic and applied geological disciplines more usually involved in Gondwana series conferences.
There will be several thematic sessions that incorporate Ordovician and Silurian palaeontology, palaeogeography and palaeoclimate and are relevant to IGCP 503, e.g., Palaeozoic biota: biogeography and diversity patterns, Gondwana palaeogeography and palaeoclimate, Gondwana basins: sedimentary record, high resolution stratigraphy, correlations and tectonics.
6th Baltic Stratigraphical Conference
St. Petersburg, Russia
August 1921, 2005: Field trip: Cambrian, Ordovician and Quaternary of Leningrad District
August 2325, 2005: Conference
The 6th Baltic Stratigraphical Conference will cover a wide range of topics, with particular emphasis on the sedimentary basin stratigraphy of Baltic and neighbouring regions. The number of sessions and
topics of symposia will be specified according to the preferences of registered participants. During the pre-conference field trip, participants will observe a complete succession of Cambrian and Ordovician rocks exposed in the St. Petersburg region. Aspects of palaeontology, biostratigraphy, sequence stratigraphy, sedimentary environments and sea-level changes will be discussed in a range of facies from the cool water to tropical carbonates.
The Fifth International Brachiopod Congress
