Seafloor Geodesy Future PI Workshop Announcement – Sunday May 18

[Newman, Andy]

Are you a researcher who would like to break into seafloor geodesy?

Please consider participating in a workshop that is designed to prepare new investigators to design and propose a seafloor geodetic experiment.

Learning Goals:

• Gain the background knowledge to write a competitive seafloor geodetic proposal
• Understand the signal-to-noise considerations for experimental design and hypothesis testing
• Be able to construct a budget for a seafloor geodetic experiment
• Gain familiarity with ship logistics and planning
• Understand the design and specifications of seafloor geodetic instrumentation
• Network with other researchers who share common interests
  

Target Audience:  any researcher new to seafloor geodesy, with an emphasis on early career researchers

When:  Sunday May 18, immediately preceding the 2025 NSF SAGE/GAGE Community Science Workshop

Where: Radisson Blu Mall of America, Bloomington, Minnesota 

Travel Support: Limited travel and lodging support is available.

How to apply:  Complete the application form by March 14th. We expect to be able to accommodate 20 individuals.

Questions:  contact Newman, Andy <ane...@gatech.edu>

P.S.:  We will also be holding a second workshop in early August focused on seafloor geodetic software tools, data processing, and interpretation.  Stay tuned for a future announcement.
