Applications are open for the 2026 Near-Surface Geophysics Community Input Workshop! We are happy to announce that applications are now open for the 2026 Near-Surface Geophysics Community Input Workshop, held in Albuquerque, New Mexico on August 25 & 26.  This in-person workshop will bring the near-surface geophysics community together to shape future science support and collaboration. The NGS workshop is jointly organized by multiple groups involved in near-surface geophysics (NSF NGF, CTEMPs, OpenTopography, NHERI, CUAHSI, and AGU Near-Surface Geophysics Section), and sponsored by the NSF National Geophysical Facility (NSF NGF, operated by EarthScope). It will build on previous efforts to unify the community and determine priorities.  What to Know Workshop attendance will be determined by application. Attendees must be US citizens, US residents, or at a US-based institution. The target audience is college/university faculty and other professionals involved in Earth and environmental science and engineering. Late-stage PhD students will also be considered. All accepted attendees are eligible for travel support in the form of hotel accommodations and a plane flight. Applications due by June 22.   Visit the workshop website for more details & to fill out an application! Questions? Please contact confe...@earthscope.org for more information. earthscope.org
