This project will host the 2017 AGU-SEG Hydrogeophysics conference that will be coorganizedby the Society for Exploration Geophysicists (SEG) and the American Geophysical Union (AGU). The meeting will be held at Stanford University July 24-27, 2017 and will focus on geophysics as a tool in critical zone science. The Critical Zone is the region of Earth from that reaches from the top of the vegetation down through the soil, weathered rock, and fractured bedrock to the base of the water table. Near surface geophysical methods have been used to image shallow root zones, quantify the architecture and depth of the Critical Zone, determine subsurface water content and the depth to the water table, measure groundwater/surface water interactions, and measure gas exchange between soils and the atmosphere. Despite the utility of using geophysical methods to address Critical Zone, there are minimal studies in which geophysical measurements are fully integrated within scientific studies of the Critical Zone.The conference goals are to: (1) Bring together and foster multidisciplinary collaborations between a diverse set of Critical Zone scientists and near surface geophysicists. (2) Identify areas in Critical Zone science where near surface geophysics is under-utilized. (3) Identify future research focus/funding areas for Critical Zone geophysics. (4)Produce a white paper highlighting future research opportunities. The organizing committee for the workshop consists of members from the communities of researchers engaged in near surface geophysics, hydrogeophysics and Critical Zone science and includes a broad range of career stages.

该项目将举办2017年AGU-SEG水文物理会议，该会议将由勘探地球物理学家协会（SEG）和美国地球物理联盟（AGU）进行协调。该会议将于2017年7月24日至27日在斯坦福大学举行，并将重点介绍地球物理作为关键区科学的工具。 临界区域是从植被顶部穿过土壤，风化的岩石和裂缝的基岩到地下水位底部的地球区域。 近地面地球物理方法已用于对浅根区域进行成像，量化关键区域的结构和深度，确定地下水分含量以及对地下水位的深度，测量地下水/地表水相互作用，并测量土壤与大气之间的气体交换。 尽管使用地球物理方法来解决关键区域的实用性，但在某些研究中，地球物理测量结果最少，在关键区域的科学研究中充分整合。会议目标是：（1）汇集在一起​​并培养多个关键区域科学家和近地面地球物理学家之间的多种多样的多学科合作。 （2）确定关键区域科学的区域，近地地球物理学未被充分利用。 （3）确定关键区域地球物理学的未来研究重点/资金领域。 （4）生产一张白皮书，强​​调未来的研究机会。 研讨会组织委员会由参与近地面地球物理学，水文物理学和关键区科学的研究人员社区的成员组成，其中包括广泛的职业阶段。
