Collaborative Research: A Workshop Proposal for Improving Access to R/V Langseth Seismic Data

学术价值研讨会将审查整个过程的征求，评估，资助和调度工作的R/V Langseth。 它还将讨论如何更好地获取在海上考察期间获得的数据。研讨会的成果将包括：1）一份总结讨论、共识和争议项目以及建议的报告; 2）一本介绍未来几年主动源地震学科学机会的精美小册子; 3）一个新的操作模式的R/V Langseth的实施计划。更广泛的影响这是一个海洋地震学前所未有的机会，随着R/V Langseth完成其成功运营的第二年。R/V Langseth的能力将使关键的科学进步成为可能。 然而，沿着新机遇而来的是新挑战，包括三维地震采集的高成本、预测作业区域的困难以及确保广泛的社区获得数据。 该研讨会将解决这些问题，并为未来运营这一独特的设施提供路线图

Intellectual MeritThe workshop will examine the entire process of soliciting, evaluating, funding, and scheduling work on the R/V Langseth. It will also address how to improve access to the data acquired during sea-going expeditions. The products of the workshop will include 1) a report summarizing the discussions, the items of consensus and contention, and recommendations; 2) a glossy brochure describing the science opportunities for active source seismology in the upcoming years; 3) an implementation plan for a new mode of operation of the R/V Langseth.Broader ImpactsThis is a time of unprecedented opportunity for marine seismology, as the R/V Langseth completes its second year of successful operations. The capabilities of the R/V Langseth will enable key scientific advances. However, along with the new opportunities come new challenges, including the high cost of 3D seismic acquisition, the difficulty of forecasting areas of operation, and ensuring broad community access to the data. The workshop will address these issues and provide a roadmap for operating this unique facility in the future
