Biography for SEG President Elect Candidacy[1]
Marion R. Bone, candidate for President-Elect, has been an Active member of SEG since 1974. He is currently Series Editor fot the Geophysical Reference Series (1987-89) and served on the SEG Executive Committee as Vice-President in 1984-85.

He served the Dallas Geophysical Society as First Vice-President in 1981-82 and later as President and member of the Executive Committee during 1982-84. He was Chairman of the Technical Program for the 34th Annual Midwestern Exploration Meeting in Dallas in 1981.
His technical contributions at SEG began with a co-authored paper introducing the use of horizontal slices from processed data for interpretation of 2-D and 3-D seismic data. This paper was presented at the 45th Annual SEG Meeting in Denver in 1975. An expanded treatise, pusblished in Geophysics in 1983, received the "Best Paper in Geophysics" award. He has since presented papers on developments and practical uses (case his stories) of 3-D seismic techniques at society meetings convened at local, national, and international sites.
