Preparations for 11^th Thermochronology Conference dominated the last months and Ontrackforum has mostly been used for announcements. The Thermochronology session at the GSA meeting in Houston unfortunately did not come about, but most contributions will hopefuly be presented in Anchorage.

Note the job offers that have been posted on the web site. Also, if you or your colleagues have open positions in the field of thermochronology please consider posting it!

FT2008 Alaska - 11th International Conference on thermochronometry

The 11th International Conference on thermochronometry will be held from 15-19 September 2008 in Anchorage, Alaska. The venue is The Hotel Captain Cook in downtown Anchorage. This meeting will focus on the theory and application of low-temperature thermochronometry. This is an exciting time in low-temperature thermal studies because of the explosion of helium dating and how it has integrated with well-established fission...
