During the Cretaceous, this area was d ivided into several sub-basins with well-defined tectonic frames, often wit h pull-apart structures driven by the regional strike-slip dextral geodynam ic regime dominant throughout its post-Variscan history. The Cretaceous dep osits in the Sudetes represent an excellent example of the interaction of g lobal, regional, and local processes on sedimentation.\n\n\nLed by Jurand W ojewoda, Alina Chrząstek and Stanisław Leszczyński.\n\n\nPRE-CONFERENCE EXC URSION (3 DAYS)\n\nFrom shallow – to deep-marine Cretaceous of the northern Tethys – record of diversification of the Alpine system in the Polish Carp athians The field trip aims to explore the Cretaceous sediments of the West ern Carpathians, deposited in variegated tectonic settings: from pelagic an d carbonate platform in the uppermost Jurassic/ Lower Cretaceous to synorog enic marls and clastics in the Upper Cretaceous. You will see the beautiful landscapes of the southernmost tip of Poland with Alpine-type mountains, p icturesque klippen and alps.\n\n\nLed by Krzysztof Bąk, Marta Bąk, Jacek Gr abowski, Jan Hejnar, Jolanta Iwańczuk, Michał Krobicki, Damian Lodowski, Al fred Uchman\n\n\nPRE-CONFERENCE EXCURSION (2 DAYS)\n\nTuronian-Coniacian of the Opole Cretaceous. This field trip will lead participants to the enormo us Folwark quarry in Opole, where almost the entire so-called “Opole Cretac eous” is well-exposed. These strata – largely marls and chalks – are charac terized by a rich, diverse paleontological and ichnological record: there a re numerous representatives of ammonites, inoceramid and other bivalves, ec hinoids, sponges and other invertebrate groups, to a lesser extent, vertebr ates (fish, sharks, and reptiles). The biostratigraphical scheme relies on calcareous nannoplankton, inoceramids, and ammonites.\n\n\nLed by Elena Yaz ykova, Mariusz Kędzierski, Jordan Todes and Dawid Mazurek\n\n\nPRE-CONFEREN CE EXCURSION (1 DAY)\n\nPalaeontological and geological collections in Wars aw.

Geological rec ord and petrology of the Upper Cretaceous of the Miechów Trough (southern P oland) We would like to offer an exciting field trip across the Upper Creta ceous succession of the Miechów Synclinorium. The trip starts and finishes in Warsaw and includes an overnight stay in the European Center for Geologi cal Education. https://www.eceg.uw.edu.pl/en/ The trip will focus on silice ous-carbonate rocks and the biogeochemical Si cycle in marine environments. \n\n\nLed by Agata Jurkowska, Ewa Świerczewska-Gładysz and Aleksandra Kaszt elewicz\n\n\nPOST-CONFERENCE EXCURSION (2 DAYS)\n\nThe end of an Era: recor d of environments, biotic communities and events across the Cretaceous-Pale ogene boundary in Poland We shall be guiding you to the most important loca lities in central and eastern Poland that record the environments, biotic c ommunities and events just prior to and across the Cretaceous-Paleogene (K- Pg) boundary. This trip will include the classic localities near Kazimierz Dolny, in the Middle Vistula River section, as well as a section near Chełm with the K-Pg iridium anomaly. We shall also pay a visit to a regional mus eum at Kazimierz Dolny with a collection of late Cretaceous fossils.\n\n\nL ed by Marcin Machalski, Danuta Olszewska-Nejbert and Ewa Świerczewska-Głady sz\n\n\nPOST-CONFERENCE EXCURSION (2 DAYS)\n\nThe Cretaceous of the North S udetic Synclinorium (southwestern Poland): stratigraphy, origin and economi c importance. This trip will focus on the facies and sedimentary developmen t of the Cenomanian‒Santonian shallow marine to terrestrial deposits of the North Sudetic Synclinorium (some 400 km southwest of Warsaw), which record a sedimentary basin (the North Sudetic Basin) that formed in the mid- Cret aceous at the northern margin of the Bohemian Massif. The North Sudetic Bas in constituted a southeastern extension of the East Brandenburg Basin and w as, at least temporarily, connected by a (supposed) strait with the adjacen t Intra-Sudetic Basin and – further to the south –the Bohemian Basin: accor dingly, it linked the Tethyan and Boreal realms. Depositional processes, sy stems, and environments, and the factors controlling sedimentation in this basin, will be discussed. The economic importance of the deposits – as buil ding stones, glass sandstones, and ceramic clays – will also be examined.\n \n\nLed by Stanisław Leszczyński, Alina Chrząstek, Wojciech Nemec and Jurand Wojewoda\n\n\nPOST-CONFERENCE EXCURSION (3 DAYS)\n\nCross border, cr oss boundary: exploring the Jurassic-Cretaceous transition in the western C arpathians. We are exploring the possibility of offering an exciting field trip across the Western Carpathians, starting in Warsaw and ending in Budap est, primarily for those delegates who wish to attend both the Cretaceous S ymposium and the Jurassic Symposium [which will take place the week after t he Cretaceous Symposium]. Organized jointly with Polish and Slovak colleagu es, a special focus will be placed on the Jurassic-Cretaceous transition.\n \n\nLed by Jacek Grabowski, Damian Lodowski, Kamil Fekete, Josef Micha lik, Daniela Rehakova, Istvan Fozy, Ottilia Szives\n\n\nPOST-CONFERENCE EXC URSION (2 DAYS)\n\nCretaceous deep-sea facies, stratigraphy, and ichnology in the Flysch Carpathians and the Pieniny Klippen Belt. The excursion will lead through selected outcrops of Cretaceous deposits in the western and mi ddle part of the Polish Flysch Carpathians. Variable facies, problems of st ratigraphy and ichnology of the most important lithostratigraphic units in the Silesian, Subsilesian and Magura nappes will be presented.\n\n\nLed by Alfred Uchman and collaborators\n\n\nPOST-CONFERENCE EXCURSION (3 DAYS)\n\n Late Cretaceous inversion of the Polish Basin – facies distribution and bat hymetrical changes The trip will focus on the northeastern part of the Mid- Polish Anticlinorium. In several outcrops, we will examine the main facies of this region (sandy limestone, gaize, opoka, marls, chalk), their spatial relationship, and resultant bathymetric and environmental interpretations. The surface data will be linked to high-resolution seismic images linking the subsurface changes to the depositional architecture during the Late Cre taceous inversion of the Polish Basin.\n\n\nLed by Zbigniew Remin, Piotr Kr zywiec, and Aleksandra Stachowska\n\n\nVENUE THE UNIVERSITY OF WARSAW\n\nNe w Library The new University of Warsaw Library is a building of surprising diversity, fusing the functionality of a modern library with the atmosphere of an old town. Abutting the Vistula embankment, it encapsulates European culture while retaining adistinct Mazovian heritage. The interior of the bu ilding is stunning, centered around a three-story monumental ‘Passage’ lead ing to the library itself, and open spaces connecting reading halls, restin g places, and the books themselves. Our lecture halls directly face rows of bookshelves containing massive collections of books and magazines from aro und the world. There are also numerous shops, cafes, and art galleries on t he library premises. The roof of the library hosts one of the largest, most beautiful rooftop gardens in Europe, and is an attractive resting place fo r students and tourists alike. From the roof, visitors can admire both the Varsovian skyline and the Vistula River. The garden is immersed in a profus ion of vibrant plants: yellow, pink, red and orange flowering shrubs, silve r-leaved willows, white blooming Dasiphora fruticosa, and dwarf pines, amon g many others. The walkways, paths, bridges, and pergolas traversing the ga rden are hidden within an assortment of vines and climbing hydrangea, provi ding a scene of solitude and nature within the bustling University of Warsa w campus. The majority of the symposium will be hosted here, in the new lib rary. THE UNIVERSITY OF WARSAW Old Library This is an iconic building of th e University of Warsaw: initially built in 1894, at the beginning of the 21 st century it was fully renovated into a modern lecture and conference cent re.
