Abstract

The 39th Annual Convention of the Indian Association of Sedimentologists (IAS) and the International Conference on "Voyage of Sedimentology from the Mountains to the Oceans: An Innovative Trajectory" took place from December 6th to 8th, 2023, at the Department of Earth Sciences, Annamalai University. This event was organized under the auspices of the IAS and held in anticipation of the impending centenary year of Annamalai University and the Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav.

The conference was meticulously conceptualized to showcase various aspects of sedimentary processes, environments, and resources, aligning with the overarching themes of the approaching centenaries. It aimed to bring together experts, researchers, academicians, and professionals in sedimentology to share their groundbreaking research, ideas, and experiences related to sedimentary processes, environments, and resources. As a multidisciplinary field, Sedimentology plays a pivotal role in elucidating Earth's history, managing energy and mineral resources, addressing environmental concerns, mitigating geological hazards, studying climate change, and supporting civil engineering and construction projects. The significance of sedimentology lies in its ability to provide invaluable insights into the processes and environments shaping our planet, contributing to various practical applications with profound societal, economic, and environmental implications.

With a comprehensive agenda, the conference featured the International Association of Sedimentologists Lecture series, keynote speeches, invited talks, oral and poster presentations, and Workshops centered on identified themes. Additionally, post-conference field excursions were organized to enhance participants' understanding and exploration of sedimentological concepts in practical settings.
