The Near Surface Geoscience Division (NSGD) represents the interests of its members who work in all areas of geoscience applied to investigation of the shallow subsurface. Such areas include, but are not limited to, geophysics, geotechnics, engineering geology, mining, geothermal investigation, environment, hydrogeology, archaeology, forensics and soil science. It provides a forum for discussing and improving the application of geoscientific methods to the above-mentioned topics. The Division publishes its own journal, Near Surface Geophysics, and organizes an annual technical meeting, Near Surface Geoscience, normally held in September. It contributes to the EAGE Flagship journal First Break and collaborates with other societies in organizing joint technical meetings.
