Abstract

The SEG Executive Committee, at its meeting in May, approved a petition by the Deutsche Geophysikalische Gesellschaft e.V. (DGG; German Geo-physical Society) to become an SEG Section/Associated Society. The first joint activity between the societies will be the Near-surface Honorary Lecture by Rick Miller on 1 October 2012 in Berlin followed by one on 3 October 2012 in Hannover. DGG is actually eight years older than SEG. It was founded in 1922 by a group of geophysicists associated with famed seismologist Emil Wiechert, and is the principal professional society of the geophysical community in Germany. DGG currently has 1100 active members in 34 countries; this includes students and professionals as well as individual and corporate memberships.
