News and Updates on the SEG-EEGS Merger Talks

Updates and answers to frequently asked questions about talks between EEGS and the SEG to form a new near surface entity are provided under About Us from the web page menu or from the Quick Links menu.

SAGEEP 2013 Technical Program Available for Viewing

The Technical Program schedule has been published.  Details at  SAGEEP 2013 / Program

Geophysicists, engineers, geoscientists and end-users from around the world gathered in Denver, Colorado March 17-21, 2013 to meet, discuss near-surface applications of geophysics and learn about recent developments in near-surface geophysics. 

Funding Available for Environmental Research and Development

The Department of Defense’s (DoD) Strategic Environmental Research and Development Program (SERDP) is seeking to fund environmental research and development proposals.  SERDP also will be funding environmental research and development through the SERDP Exploratory Development (SEED) Solicitation.  To learn more about these two funding opportunities click here.

Call for Papers

Special Issue of the Journal of Environmental and Engineering Geophysics: Time Domain Electromagnetics

The Journal of Environmental and Engineering Geophysics (JEEG) announces a Call for Papers for a special issue on Time Domain Electromagnetics. This issue is scheduled for publication in March 2014.  The special issue editor is Antonio Menghini, Aarhus Geophysics, Denmark.  Sponsorship of this issue is still open.  For further information and how to submit, click here.

Frequently Asked  Questions Answered

In September 2011, the Society of Exploration Geophysicists (SEG) and the Environmental and Engineering Geophysical Society (EEGS) began talks about a possible merger between the two organizations.  Many relevant questions pertaining to the decision and their corresponding answers are found on the About Us/ SEG-EEGS Merger FAQ tab.

JEEG Wants Your Manuscripts! 

The majority of EEGS members and readers of the Journal of Environmental and Engineering Geophysics (JEEG) are involved in interesting and innovative studies. Whether it is developing a new process or approach, modifying present applications, or applying a common technique in an innovative manner, the JEEG readership would like to know what YOU are doing.  JEEG Editor, Janet Simms, is appealing to potential contributors to document their experiences and submit them to JEEG.  She reminds everyone that with SAGEEP approaching, many will be attending the conference to give a presentation, or learn about new research, software, and hardware advancements. Colleagues will be discussing what they have been doing.  "Put those discussions on paper and submit your work efforts to JEEG—let the world know what you are doing!"  All SAGEEP attendees who are giving an oral or poster presentation should consider submitting their work to JEEG, which receives a much wider audience.

JEEG is an internationally recognized journal in geophysics, has an impact factor of 0.837 (2010), and is accessible through both SEG and EAGE libraries, and GeoScience World (GSW), a library database subscribed to by the majority of universities and colleges with a geoscience curriculum.  
Information on submitting a manuscript to JEEG can be found at jeeg.allentrack.net.
