Harold Mooney Award
The Near-Surface Geophysics Technical Section Harold Mooney Award was originally presented in recognition of scientific and technical excellence and innovation leading to the advancement of near-surface geophysics. Starting in 2005, the award definition was expanded and is now presented to an individual in recognition of long-term (greater than or equal to 10 years), tireless, and enthusiastic support of the near-surface geophysics community through education, outreach efforts, professional service, or development of opportunities with other professional disciplines that employ geophysics.
The Award is presented by the SEG Near-Surface Geophysics Technical Section during its reception at the SEG annual meeting. The honoree is chosen by his or her peers through nominations from the membership and recommendation to the SEG Near-Surface Geophysics Technical Section Leadership.
