The conference was a joint activity of the Commissions Paleopedology and Soil Geography. It was
organized by Daniela Sauer together with Reinhold Jahn (Chair of Soil Geography Commission)
and Karl Stahr (Chair of IUSS Division 1) in the Castle of Hohenheim at Hohenheim University,
Stuttgart (Germany). It started with a welcome barbecue in the evening of Thursday, July 28 -
accompanied by heavy rain and thunder, which however did not lessen the good temper of the
conference participants sheltered under the big balcony of the Castle of Hohenheim. The next two
days brought a stimulating program of diverse oral and poster sessions (see below). In the end of
the two days, a jury, composed of Hema Achyuthan, Seppe Deckers and Irina Kovda, had the
difficult task to select among a number of brilliant talks the three best young scientists’ talks:
Björn Buggle, Martina Gocke and Michael Zech & Roland Zech (alphabetical order) received
the three Young Scientists Awards for the best oral presentations.
A second jury, composed of Maria Bronnikova, Michal Jankowski and Michael Zech, had to make
the same difficult decision between many excellent posters:
The three PhD students Jochen Berger, Tobias Sprafke and Rosa E. Tovar (alphabetical order)
received the three Young Scientists Awards for the best posters.
The six prices were sponsored by the company UGT Müncheberg, Germany.
