The most important event in 2007 was the participation at the XVII INQUA Congress held at Cairns, Australia, 20 July – 3 August 2007.
The commission collaborated in the preparation of three oral and as many poster sessions:
“Pedogenesis Analysis of Aeolian Deposits”,
Conveners: Martin Iriondo and Birgit Terhorst.
"Pedogenic carbonate as paleoenvironmental and chronological proxy in Quaternary research: potential and limitations",
Conveners: Konstantin Pustovoytov and Marie-Agnes Courty.
"Timescales of soil formation", Conveners: Daniela Sauer and Edoardo Costantini
All sessions have seen a wide participation and a good attendance. Some papers related to Paleopedology were also presented in three other sessions: Aeolian dust and environmental change, Quaternary circum alpine stratigraphy, and Dynamics of terrestrial systems: geology, biogeochemistry, climate.
