The Near Surface Geophysics Group (NSGG) invites submissions from postgraduate students for our 2018 Postgraduate Research Symposium. The event is hosted in the School of Earth and Environment at the University of Leeds, by the S chool’s Institute of Applied Geosciences.
The NSGG is a special inter est group of The Geological Society, with a remit of advancing, encouraging and supporting the study and practice of near-surface geophysics throughou t the industrial and academic sectors. Our postgraduate symposia offer stud ents of near-surface geophysics the opportunity to present their research t o their peer group, plus a network of academic and industrial practitioners , in a relaxed and supportive environment.
We solicit abstracts from postgraduate students working in any aspect of near-surface geophysics, inc luding environmental investigations, engineering, archaeology, forensic sci ence, mineral exploration and geological processes. To mark the Geological Society’s “Year of Resources”, we will hold a special session featuring nea r-surface geophysical methods as applied to the characterisation of subsurf ace resources (e.g., energy, minerals, water) and their sustainable develop ment (e.g., waste disposal, time-lapse monitoring).
The deadl ine for the submission of a 500-word abstract, plus 1 optional fig ure, is 17:00 on Friday 1st June 2018. Abstracts should be emailed to Dr Adam Booth (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript e nabled to view it.
