Active Source Seismology: Recent Scientific Results and Facilities for 
the Future
at IRIS Summer Workshop, Vancouver, WA
Tuesday, June 7, 2016; 8:30 am - 5:00 pm

The IRIS Controlled Source community will host the workshop "Active 
Source Seismology: Recent Scientific Results and Facilities for the 
Future" on June 7, 2016, the day before the start of the IRIS Summer 
Workshop in Vancouver, Washington. This workshop is designed to bring 
together scientists from diverse disciplines who are interested in using 
land and/or marine controlled source seismic methods. Scientific targets 
include the cryosphere, hydrological/critical zones, sedimentation and 
exploration, outcrop to deep crust and mantle lithosphere, and the 
marine-to-land transition. Scientific presentations will examine topics 
including: crustal imaging that challenges the existing PASSCAL 
facilities, quantification of physical properties, joint passive-active 
source utilization of industry nodes, geophysical investigations of the 
Critical Zone and diverse types of hazards, and full wavefield and other 
advanced inversion methods.

Objectives of this workshop are to increase scientific interactions 
among those who could benefit from controlled source seismic methods, 
identify future scientific directions, and describe needed source and 
instrumentation capabilities. This event will include discussion and 
breakout groups to address these topics. A workshop summary will be 
produced. We encourage participation from industry, geological sciences, 
and other fields outside of seismology or geophysics.
