Purpose of the C-FRG

The Carbonate Focus Research Group (C-FRG) has been

created with the aim of identifying and then addressing the

grand challenges for fundamental research on ancient and

recent carbonate systems.

This aim will be accomplished through creation of the next

generation of numerical carbonate process models under

the umbrella of the CSDMS initiative

To kick-start C-FRG research activity and development of the carbonate community sedimentary model by:

Preparing one or more draft proposals to NSF (& other funding sources?) to fund research programs to carry out the plan outlined in the Feb 2008 meeting - development of next-generation carbonate numerical forward models along with the supporting field-based research activity

Deciding on the best structure and working practices for the group to achieve its stated aims

Aims of This Meeting

Carbonate Community Model System

The carbonate community model should be an integrated repository for carbonate research, representing a range of carbonate systems, and with predictive power on various scales

• Research programme will consist of model development

plus field-based data gathering with lots of mutual

feedback

• Models will be the storehouse of new knowledge

generated by collaboration between climatologists,

sedimentologists, stratigraphers, geobiochemists, and

biologists.

• Integration across scales and environments will require

partnerships between modelers and field workers.

• Integration will require 3D forward models and 1D & 2D

inverse models of carbonate platform sequences.
