Near Surface Geophysics Focus Group


   
 

The goal of this is to develop a logo that reflects who we are to the broader geophysical community.

The Near-Surface Geophysics Focus Group supports the development and application of geophysical methods to study the near-surface region (top ~100 m) of Earth. First organized in 2006, our primary objective is to build an AGU community where researchers involved with near-surface geophysical methods, regardless of the specific application, can discuss and advance the fundamental science of geophysical imaging (data acquisition, inversion, interpretation). We will interact closely with AGU sections where near-surface geophysics can be used to address key questions about subsurface properties and processes.

Perhaps a starting point for ideas for this logo would be this article  in the June 20 2006 EOS. This article described this new focus group including the purpose of this area as a separate group, a number of cross-correlations with other areas and various objectives of the group. But there could certainly be a number of other places to start.

Potential logos may be submitted to Lee Slater at lslater@andromeda.rutgers.edu. Logos may be submitted in most any format (jpg, gif, ai, pict, pdf, etc). If the format is compressed (jpg, gif, etc) then please be sure the images are large--it's always easier to make images smaller than to make them bigger.

 

To join this Focus Group, log into the AGU through their update member record link. Under the "Membership Record" select "Near Surface Geophysics" as your primary or "other" affiliation under the "Areas of Scientific Interest" section.
