Next to our scientific program (you will find a preliminary schedule of the sessions organized by the NSG section during AGU25 towards the end of the newsletter), the Near Surface Geophysics section is organizing a wide range of social events at AGU25. Please mark your calendars with the following:
Student & Early Career Social
Come to Flamingo A Go Go on Monday December 15th to catch up with other near surface students and early-career researchers and to meet some new faces! The restaurant serves up a variety of apps, sandwiches, entrees, and drinks and is within half a mile of the convention center. A portion of the restaurant with outdoor access has been reserved for people to gather, get some food and drinks, and mingle after the first full day of AGU. The space will be held from 6:30 to 8:30 PM. Please reach out to Chris Terra (cjt162@newark.rutgers.edu) to RSVP or with any questions. Students and early-career researchers from near surface adjacent groups (e.g. Hydrogeophysics, Remote Sensing, etc.) are also welcome!
