ENVIRONMENTAL AND INDUSTRIAL GEOPHYSICS GROUP
(EIGG) OF THE GEOLOGICAL SOCIETY
CURRENT RESEARCH IN SHALLOW GEOPHYSICS
25TH MARCH 1999, BRITISH GEOLOGICAL SURVEY,
KEYWORTH, NOTTINGHAM
This important meeting will be of interest to engineers,
hydrogeologists and environmental consultants wanting to keep
abreast of latest developments in shallow geophysics. Workers
from around the coutry will present the latest results from their
research, and speakers from many spheres of environmental
geophysics will compete for the EIGG prize for the best oral oral
presentation.
