Investigating the resilience of land against environmental changes in Ferdowsi University of Mashhad

According to RCO News Agency, According to the public relations of the Organization of Geology and Mineral Exploration of the country, Neda Mohseni, the scientific secretary of the 4th International Quaternary Science Conference, stating that this event will be held on December 19 of this year, said: In this gathering, researchers from Italy, Germany, South Korea, China, England, Belgium, Australia, Sweden and Turkey will give speeches and share the latest findings, challenges and approaches to adapt to the inevitable changes of the Anthropocene era.

Mohseni stated: In this conference, there will be discussion and exchange of views on topics such as “resilience”; Because many geosystems and climate systems have undergone irreversible changes by crossing the thresholds of change. This new approach is based on accepting uncertainties, changing the paradigm from “crisis management” to “adaptive risk management” and most importantly, a deep understanding of the geoecological limits of the planet based on paleo-quaternary data.

The fourth international conference of quaternary sciences, with the central motto of “resilience and adaptability in the face of environmental changes”, intends to pave the way for developing strategies based on collective wisdom by creating a platform for constructive interaction between the academic community and the country’s executive and management institutions. The ultimate goal is to increase resilience and adaptability to the inevitable challenges of the Anthropocene era.

Quaternary, as the newest geological period that began about two and a half million years ago, is distinguished from previous periods by the two fundamental characteristics of the emergence of humans and the occurrence of frequent climatic fluctuations.
