Abstract The 32nd IAS Meeting of Sedimentology was held in Marrakech, Morocco, from 23 to 25, May 2016. More than 360 sedimentologists from 43 countries and regions participated in this meeting. A review of research indicates that hot issues of this meeting mainly consist of continental sedimentary environment, shallow water deposits and coastal tidal systems, deep water sedimentation and event sedimentation, carbonate and chemical deposition, sedimentary process and basin analysis, diagenesis and hydrocarbon reservoirs. Main progresses of the meeting are listed as follows. Wave resuspension and hyperpycnal flow contribute to rapid progradation of shelf-margin clinoforms. The occurring period of tsunami ranges from 14, ka to 35, ka, and backset-bedding has become the identification feature of the tsunami deposits. Submarine landslides were mostly triggered by submarine earthquake and leakage of gas hydrate;the products of mass-transport-deposits usually consist of headwall scarp, basal shear surface, landslide body and post-mass wasting turbidities. The weathering process of host rock(like basalt)provided silica and Mg-rich alkaline waters, which were suitable for chabazite and dolomite formation. The invertible transformation could occur between the uplift erosion area and the depositional area due to the tectonic influence. Sedimentary topography(source-to-sink system)was controlled by provenance property, sediment supply and transporting or dispersing processes. Variation of accommodation and landform, erosion rate of source area and sediment supply rate were directly linked to tectonic movement. Finally, this article makes a comparison between the development of sedimentology in China and other countries, and discusses the future research fields of sedimentology in China.
