Quick Update - EAGE - NSG Barcelona 2016

As part of being named one of the "Best of SAGEEP 2016" presentations at the Environmental and Engineering Geophysics Society's March conference in Denver, I had the privilege of being invited to the conference of their European counterpart - the European Association of Geoscientists and Engineers (EAGE) Near Surface Geoscience (NSG) division. That involved a trip this September to Barcelona for the 22nd European Meeting of Environmental and Engineering Geophysics.

That's me, arriving at the conference centre on September 5

It was a pleasure to share my findings with a new audience and to make some new connections with counterparts in Europe. The presentation went smoothly, and I had some extra days to immerse myself in Catalonian culture and to enjoy Mediterranean heat.

My talk followed immediately after the opening ceremonies. It was a bit nerve-wracking to present to a large audience, but the presentation went smoothly. 
I had some extra time to do some sightseeing too. This was La Sagrada Familia cathedral, a famous Barcelona landmark
The trip capped off an enjoyable albeit hectic summer of field work, personal travels (including a wedding in Norway and family visits in Ontario), and of moving houses. I'm looking forward to settling back in to Calgary, completing data processing shortly, and beginning the process of writing my thesis.
