Welcome
The Symposium
on the Application of Geophysics to Environmental and Engineering
Problems (SAGEEP) provides geophysicists, engineers, geoscientists
and end-users from around the world an opportunity to meet and discuss
near-surface applications of geophysics and learn about recent developments
in near-surface geophysics.
SAGEEP is internationally
recognized as the leading conference on the practical application
of shallow geophysics. Since 1988 at the Colorado School of Mines,
the symposium has been held over a 5-day period at locations throughout
the United States, with approximately 150 oral and poster presentations,
several educational workshops, numerous vendor presentations, and
a commercial exhibition. A set of proceedings, comprised of technical
presentations, is distributed on CD and available online as part
of the new EEGS Research Collection.
Be sure to check back for more information and details as they are made available.
Call for Session Proposals
In order to meet the evolving need of our membership—and to attract new members—EEGS is
launching a new approach for technical session development, abstract preparation, and
submission for SAGEEP. Sessions may be proposed online (click here) through September
13, 2010 and will require a brief description and list of potential speakers.
Once accepted, session proposers will be responsible for developing the session by
soliciting papers from individuals in the subject area. Also new this year, each session
may have one “invited” paper, which may be longer in duration than the others. Expanded,
multi-page abstracts for the proceedings will no longer be required, but will instead be
optional, based on the desires of the participant.
Online Abstract Submission Site Open Soon
New Procedure — The SAGEEP 2011 online abstract submission site will be open September 17, 2010
and abstracts will be due by November 19, 2010. Short, 300 words maximum, abstracts adhering
to a format template will be prescribed. Submission of an abstract will constitute a commitment
to attend the conference, and a $50 fee will be charged upon submission (applicable toward
conference registration). Abstracts will be reviewed for both scientific relevance and absence
of commercialism, and notices of acceptance or rejection will be sent in late 2010.
Authors will then have the option of submitting an expanded abstract, if they choose.
These optional expanded abstracts may range in length from a few pages to ten or more pages,
and will retain the format of previous SAGEEP proceedings They must be submitted by January
14, 2011, to be included in the abstract volume that will be distributed at the conference.
Please address any questions regarding these changes to the SAGEEP 2011 Technical Chair, Dr.
Gregory Baker (gbaker@tennessee.edu) or General Chair, Dr. William Doll (dollw@battelle.org).
