The three day workshop and the one-day field excursion will be jointly hosted by the Scottish Universities Environmental Research Centre and the University of Edinburgh and held in Edinburgh, 7-9 June 2022. The workshop will comprise a scientific programme of oral and poster contributions by members of the international cosmogenic nuclide community, discussions, short practical workshops and an optional field excursionon the last day.
