ASEG News

The ASEG has changed to a new web service provider.
Some functions are not yet available but will be shortly.
Your patience is appreciated.

Geophysical Reference

The pages under this heading provide reference material and links to reference material to serve the following purposes:

Assist geophysicists in their work as a place to refer to formuale and geophysal constants
Contain descriptions of geophysical techniques and instruments
Assist lay people to understand about geophysical concepts, techniques and instruments.
Act as an introduction to the geophysical profession for people interested in a geophysical career

Material will be added to this section on a continual basis.

Contributions, suggestions and questions are welcome. Please forward these to the ASEG Webmaster. The webmaster will endeavour to find a suitably qualified geophysicist to add material relevant to suggestions and questions.
