*Call for Participation in GeoPRISMS ENAM Community Seismic Experiment*

Application Deadlines:

* January 7, 2014 for Broadband OBS Deployment Cruise
* March 1, 2014 for Explosion Seismic Shoot, Active-Source, Seismic
Cruise, and Active-Source OBS Deployment Cruise, Broadband OBS
Recovery Cruise

Applications are being solicited to participate in the GeoPRISMS Eastern
North America Community Seismic Experiment (ENAM CSE), which will
collect a suite of active and passive source seismic data along the
mid-Atlantic coast. The ENAM CSE involves offshore and land deployment
of seismometers that will record land and marine seismic sources and
marine multi-channel seismic data acquisition. More information about
the objectives and design of the ENAM CSE can be found online
(http://geoprisms.org/enam/community-seismic-experiment.html). The
tentative operational schedule and participation numbers are:

*Broadband OBS deployment (Endeavor)*
April 01 - 16, 2014
PIs: Jim Gaherty, Maggie Benoit, Maureen Long
Science Party: up to 12

*Explosion seismic shoot and onshore/offshore recording (survey, deploy,
recover Reftek instruments)*
Early September - Early October 2014
PIs: Beatrice Magnani, Dan Lizarralde, Steven Harder
Science Party: 14

*Active-source seismic cruise (Langseth)*
PIs: Donna Shillington, Matt Hornbach, Anne Becel
September 15 - October 22, 2014
Science party: up to 12

*Active-source OBS deployment (Endeavor)*
September 12 - October 13, 2014
PIs: Harm Van Avendonk, Brandon Dugan
Science Party: 12

*Broadband OBS recovery (ship TBD)*
Spring 2015
PIs: Jim Gaherty, Maggie Benoit, Maureen Long
Science Party: up to 12

Research opportunities and travel funds are available for participation
in any of the field activities. Selected applicants will contribute to
collecting the open-access data that will be provided to the scientific
community for use in addressing a wide spectrum of GeoPRISMS and
EarthScope science. These opportunities are designed to expand the
visibility of land and marine seismic field programs and to expand the
experience pool for field-based geophysics. Applications from students
and early career scientists are particularly encouraged. Applicants do
not need to have experience with the type of data collection they will
participate in; we hope that wide community participation in these field
campaigns will provide opportunities for scientists to gain familiarity
with a variety of data collection techniques.

To apply to participate, please assemble an application package (2-page
CV and 2- page statement of interest and experience, identification of
desired field activity or activities, and potential involvement in
post-experiment science or potential use of data) and submit it
electronically to Brandon Dugan (dugan<at>rice.edu) no later than *January
7, 2014* (Broadband OBS Deployment Cruise) or *March 1, 2014* (Explosion
Seismic Shoot, Active-Source Seismic Cruise, and Active-Source OBS
Deployment Cruise, Broadband OBS Recovery Cruise). Applications by
graduate students require a letter of support from the graduate advisor.
Questions regarding the field activities should be directed as follows:

Broadband OBS -- Maureen Long (maureen.long<at>yale.edu)
Active Source OBS -- Brandon Dugan (dugan<at>rice.edu)
Land Seismic -- Beatrice Magnani (mmagnani<at>smu.edu)
Marine MCS Seismic -- Matt Hornbach (mhornbach<at>smu.edu)
