## Description

The International Commission on Stratigraphy (ICS) is a prominent scientific body within the International Union of Geological Sciences (IUGS). Established as the oldest and largest constituent, the ICS plays a crucial role in defining global units on the International Chronostratigraphic Chart. These units, including systems, series, and stages, form the foundation of the International Geological Time Scale, essential for expressing the Earth's history accurately. The Commission is structured into seventeen subcommissions, each focusing on a specific geological period, overseen by an executive team of six officers. The ICS also offers valuable resources such as the Geobiodiversity Database, publications, and a stratigraphic guide. Stay updated with their latest releases, meetings, and events through their website. Join the ICS in shaping the understanding of Earth's history and geological time scales.
