EEGS Introduces a New Webinar Series: TAG – Talk About Geophysics!
Combining a casual, welcoming virtual environment with a valuable learning opportunity, the TAG Webinar series will range from scientific presentations to discussions about students’ career development. Each month, the TAG webinar series will feature networking as well as a scientific presentation, a discussion of small business topics, a published author’s latest article, or application specific talks ranging from magnetic surveys to borehole geophysics. Experts in their field will lead discussions, answer questions and share insights. Starting in January, 2021, here are just a few of the upcoming topics: –
- Power Density Distribution in Subsurface Fractures Due to an Energized Steel Well-casing Source.
- Near Surface Geophysics Employment from an Industry Perspective – A Webinar for Students.
- EEGS’ Task Force Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Webinar on Navigating Intergenerational Differences in Geophysics
- New Frontiers in Near Surface Geophysics: Muons, Cosmic Ray Neutron Probes and Hyperspectral Imagery.
- Proximal Soil Sensing: State of the Science
- EEGS DEI Task Force webinar – focus on implicit bias
Watch for further announcements about registering for the TAG series in future EEGS Newsletters and check the EEGS website for further information.

Call for Volunteers EEGS Membership Committee
The lifeblood of any membership society is its members. We need volunteers to serve on the Membership Committee for the 2019/2020 term to:
- help identify potential new members,
- develop and communicate new member benefits, and
- participate in efforts to retain our current members.
EEGS is the premier membership organization representing near surface geophysics. Ours is a “big tent” society with members from diverse disciplines such as engineers, practitioners, academicians, students, service providers, manufacturers, software developers, and more.
Why not lend your support to help grow the association, add benefits to the the existing roster and identify strategies to let the geophysics world know of EEGS’ existence and value to the profession? This Committee has EEGS staff support to help implement programs and benefits – we need your perspective and passion!
If you think you can contribute in this rewarding role, please contact Lia Martinez ([email protected]), EEGS Membership Committee Chair.
