Abstract
This marks the 10th year since the SEG Executive Committee, realizing the growing importance of near-surface geophysics in addressing humanitarian needs, approved the formation of a Near Surface Task Force. After four years of dedicated efforts by that task force to advance and promote the science, technology, and professional practice of geophysics as applied to near-surface problems, the SEG Near-Surface Geophysics Technical Section (NSTS) was established by the SEG Board of Directors during its October 2014 meeting following submission of applications by 50 Active SEG near-surface geophysics members. The first chair of the NSTS was John Lane Jr. The membership of the technical section has grown since its inception and includes individuals from a global and diverse community.
