Welcome to Laramie Wyoming and the AMQUA Biennial Meeting.

The theme for this meeting is Exploring the Pleistocene-Holocene Boundary in the Americas:  From Molecules to Continents.

The 2010 AMQUA Program will focus on the Pleistocene-Holocene transition in the Americas, exploring the causes and consequences of the dramatic environmental changes of that transition.

Plenary talks will address this period from a variety of perspectives, and present new results and advances in age estimation, paleoclimate and paleoenvironmental reconstruction, ancient and modern DNA studies, societal patterns, and landscape dynamics.  Plenary talks have been solicited from experts in their respective fields, and focus on exciting and topical developments in the science.

The meeting program is designed to be of broad interest to Quaternary scientists, encompassing global climate change, marine and terrestrial ecosystems, geological and geochemical processes, and human cultures. 

A dedicated poster session is open to all registered meeting participants.  Posters on any aspect of Quaternary science are welcome.

AMQUA meetings have a tradition of being large and diverse enough to be of broad appeal, yet small enough to ensure high-quality and casual social interactions among participants.
