Engineering seismology CALL FOR PAPERS: 1ST BALKAN GEOPHYSICAL CONGRESS & TECHNICAL EXHIBITION 23-27 SEPTEMBER 1996, ATHENS, GREECE TECHNICAL PROGRAMME The technical programme will consist of oral and poster presentation, covering the whole field of Exploration, Production and Engineering Geophysics, Seismology, ranging from data acquisition through data processing to interpretation. Contributions in the form of case histories illustrating the practical use of geophysical techniques are especially welcome. An oral paper will be allocated 20 minutes for the speaker' s presentation, using slides and/or viewgraphs followed by 5 minutes discussion. A poster paper consists of a graphical presentation, displayed on units 0.95m wide and 1.94m high, explanations by the author, and discussion. Poster papers offer an excellent opportunity to show complex results, such as a seismic sections, maps and illustrations, which need detailed explanations, difficult to present orally or on slides. Poster papers will be assigned to specific poster sessions and will present during a major part of the Congress. Authors are obliged to be present during their session, which will not exceed one half-day period. A special desk will be available throughout the Congress for delegates to arrange further appointments with authors. Care will be taken to avoid concurrent oral and poster sessions on the same topics. Papers accepted as oral presentations and poster presentations will be regarded as having equal standing. GENERAL Two 5x5cm slide projectors and two overhead projectors are available in each lecture hall. Times in the technical programme will be strictly observed. The Organizing Committee will notify the authors by the end of July 1996 whether their paper has been accepted, supply advice on presentation, and give guidelines for the preparation of oral and poster papers. Copies of the programme will be sent to all members of the BGS and to speakers who have indicated that they are not members. The BGS cannot make any contributions toward coverage of expenses relating to the presentation of the paper. ABSTRACTS Abstracts of papers (oral or poster) should be written in English, and give informative and accurate representation of the paper. Four copies of the abstract must be received at the following address no later than Tuesday 30 April 1996 Balkan Geophysical Society Erasmus Horizon Ltd. 34, Vass. Georgiou B', 116 35 Athens ABSTRACTS RECEIVED AFTER THE DEADLINE OF TUESDAY 30 APRIL 1996 WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED. Abstracts submitted by fax must be followed immediately by four clearly typed copies complying with the following requirements. Papers should be original and should not have been presented previously. Copyright will return to the author six months after presentation if by that time BGS has not informed the author that the copyright will be exercised. Abstracts of papers accepted for presentation will be printed in the Abstracts Book exactly as submitted, and will not be re-typed. The following rules will therefore apply to the presentation of the abstracts: a) The abstract must consist of 2 A4-pages. Longer (or shorter) abstracts will be rejected. (A4 size is 29.7 cm high and 21 cm wide) b) The abstract must be clearly typed or printed on good quality paper, with no title or author(s) given. Type area of first page should be as follows: height: 19.2cm, width 16.5cm. Second page: height 25.0cm, width 16.5 Do not type the text in columns. Do not fold the abstract. Do not frame the text. Always send the originals of figures and pictures. Colours cannot be printed. c) Within the space given for the abstract the author may include any type of information, such as text, figures and/or formulas. References should also be included when necessary. d) It is recommended that the text contains a minimum of 500 words. A copy of the form overleaf must be completed and attached to the abstract. The maximum number of co-authors is 5. ------------------------------------------------------------- ORGANIZATION Organized by : Balkan Geophysical Society Hosted by : Hellenic Geophysical Union ORGANIZING COMMITTEE President: George Sideris Vice President: Ahmet Basocur Vice President B': Evangelos Lagios Secretary: Marcos Loucoyannakis Treasurer: Yannis Grigoriou Technical Programme Officer: George Apostolopoulos Technical Programme Officer: Martha Stefouli Technical Exhibition Officer: Michael Vergitsis Technical Exhibition Officer: Panagiotis Karvelis Social Events Officer: George Zafiropoulos Public Relations: Athina Lazou Registration: Apostolos Sarris CONGRESS SECRETARIAT & TRAVEL AGENCY Erasmus Horizon Ltd. 34, Vassileos Georgiou B' 11635 Athens, Greece tel. 30-1-72.57.531, 72.57.693-5 fax. 30-1-72.57.532 ***************************************************** ***************************************************** FIRST CONGRESS OF THE BALKAN GEOPHYSICAL SOCIETY Athens, Greece, September 23-27, 1996 ***************************************************** ***************************************************** --------------------------------------------------------
