Association of Quaternary Researchers (AOQR) was registered as an Association under The
Societies Act, 1860, [Act No. 21 of Yr. 1860] with its Headquarters at Birbal Sahni Institute
of Palaeosciences (BSIP), 53, University Road, Lucknow, U.P., India on 12 th December
2019. AOQR is committed towards the overall ascent of the Quaternary research in the
Indian subcontinent which is unique in its setting, geology, populace, and inter- actions
between all its spheres. The historically high population density in this region leads to
long-term feedbacks between industrial activities and climate. Pre-serving few of the oldest
human-climate interaction records this subcontinent is an ideal observatory to study long and
short-term earth interactions and their input to climate change of the entire 2.6 Ma time span.
