Geoscientists from all over the world are invited to submit abstracts to SAGEEP 2018.  (Details at SAGEEP 2018 web site: www.EEGS.org/SAGEEP 2018/Abstracts & Sessions.)  The 31st SAGEEP will be held March 25-29, 2018 in Nashville, Tennessee United States, a region of North America with numerous attributes of interest to near surface geophysicists. Karst features, including Mammoth Cave, are abundant within a short distance of Nashville; a few hundred miles west lies the New Madrid fault zone, site of two of the largest earthquakes in the continental US (1811-1812), and east Tennessee has issues related to coal mining as well as chemical and nuclear wastes. The Tennessee river flows east to west across most of the state with numerous dams and levees. These features, along with topics of national and international interest (infrastructure, renewable and unconventional energy, water, geohazards,unexploded ordnance, etc.) will form the core of a timely and relevant technical program. 

Submit today and make note of the submission deadlines - abstracts are due 10/20/17! If you have questions, please contact the technical co-chairs at [email protected] and [email protected]. 

Questions or recommendations related to the conference can be sent to General Chair William Doll, [email protected].

Planning for Sustainability of California Groundwater - How Geophysics Can Assist

An upcoming issue of FastTIMES will focus on and be targeted towards the California groundwater market and the customers of geophysical services within the market.   Editor in Chief Geoff Pettifer has gathered a wealth of articles about the application of geophysics to resource exploration and, more importantly, groundwater resource management.   The issue will be distributed to the 5000+ members of the Groundwater Resource Association (GRA) as well as the administrators of the agencies tasked with administering a California State Grant Program designed to support the development and implementation of Groundwater Sustainability Plans through the state.  This is huge opportunity to create new business for the geophysical community.   Advertising within the issue will reach a large and important section of the professional community.  EEGS is offering full page color advertisements at a rate of only $350.  The deadline for submitting an advertisement is October 14th.   Please act quickly!!   E-mail your advertisement order and advertisement graphic to Jackie Jacoby at [email protected] by Monday, Oct. 16.  (Further details on FastTIMES affordable advertising rates and how to submit an advertisement by the deadline of October 16th can be downloaded at http://www.eegs.org/advertising-information.)
