Source to Sink Education and Planning Workshop, September 11-15, 2000

Participants in the workshop will examine the relationships among processes relevant to sediment production, transport, accumulation, and preservation on margins across a large range of temporal and spatial scales, from turbulence to tectonics and from sedimentary fabric to sequence stratigraphy and basin analysis.

"Rheology and Deformation" written by Garry Karner, David Kohlstedt, Neal Driscoll, and Brian Taylor

"The primary goal of the MARGINS Program is "to understand the complex interplay of processes that govern continental margin evolution". The plan is to investigate active systems as a whole, viewing a margin not so much as a "geological" entity of divergent, translational or convergent type, but more in terms of a complex physical, chemical and biological system, subject to a variety of influences. One approach that has been adopted by MARGINS to promote progress toward this goal is the organization of Theoretical and Experimental Institutes. These Institutes are designed to foster stronger interaction between observationalists, experimentalists, and theoreticians, and to give researchers and their students the required background to address complex, interdisciplinary problems...
