The workshop will consist of a combination of lectures and exercises which can be easily taken into the classroom (and curriculum) and a field trip through the Rockies. Lectures will focus on the physics, chemistry and biology that is entwined with the geological sciences. Three themes of Mountain Building, History of Life and Climate Change will be touched upon. During the workshop, experienced geologists from industry and academia will be on hand to answer any questions.

The CSPG President’s Special Recognition Award has been presented only a few times in the history of the Society. The award is given to those individuals or organizations who are not members of our profession and yet, through their sustained effort, have brought great honour and distinction to the geoscience community.
