Étienne Jaillard Master Class | 6 May – 9:30

On 6 May starting at 9:30, a Master Class on the sedimentary record will be held in the lecture hall, coordinated by Étienne Jaillard.

This session offers an integrated perspective on sedimentary archives, linking tectonic dynamics, depositional environments, and biosphere evolution.

This Master Class provides a cross-scale approach to sedimentary interpretation, from tectonics to biological signals, towards a unified view of Earth’s sedimentary archives.
