The backbone of the SEG Professional Development program is Continuing Education (CE). These short courses, taught by industry experts, cover topics from the fundamental to the leading edge of geophysics. CE courses are held in one of three ways: public courses, section-sponsored courses, and contract (in-house) courses.
Geophysics can be described as all of the following: An academic discipline – branch of knowledge that is taught and researched at the college or university level. . Disciplines are defined (in part), and recognized by the academic journals in which research is published, and the learned societies and academic departments or faculties to which their practitioners
Geophysics — the physics of the Earth and its environment in space, and study of earth sciences using quantitative physics methods. Subcategories This category has the following 17 subcategories, out of 17 total.
Exploration geophysics is also used to map the subsurface structure of a region, to elucidate the underlying structures, to recognize spatial distribution of rock units, and to detect structures such as faults, folds and intrusive rocks. This is an indirect method for assessing the likelihood of ore deposits or hydrocarbon accumulations.
This is a non-diffusing subcategory of Category:Outlines. It includes Outlines that can also be found in the parent category, or in diffusing subcategories of the parent. Each entry below is an outline , an introduction to a subject structured as a hierarchical list of the essential points.
Near-surface geophysics is the use of geophysical methods to investigate small-scale features in the shallow (tens of meters) subsurface. It is closely related to applied geophysics or exploration geophysics. Methods used include seismic refraction and reflection, gravity, magnetic, electric, and electromagnetic methods.
The Texas A&M University College of Geosciences was an academic college of Texas A&M University in College Station, Texas.The college had six academic departments and programs, including Atmospheric Sciences, Geography, Geology & Geophysics, Oceanography, Environmental Programs in Geosciences, and the Water Management & Hydrological Science (WMHS) Program.
Robert E. Sheriff (19 April 1922 – 19 November 2014) was an American geophysicist best known for writing the comprehensive geophysical reference, Encyclopedic Dictionary of Exploration Geophysics. His main research interests included the seismic detailing of reservoirs , in 3-D seismic interpretation and seismic stratigraphy , and practical ...
