Title
Studying the Earth's surface with seismic methods
General information
Training a new generation of environmental seismologists
Natural processes such as landslides, river flows and glacial movements all transfer energy through the ground in the form of seismic waves. In practice, tracking these seismic signals can help to monitor and predict processes of surface activity to prevent hazards. Known as environmental seismology, this emerging scientific field is in need of trained experts. To introduce a new generation of competent environmental seismologists, the EnvSeis project, funded by the Marie Sk艂odowska-Curie Actions programme, endeavours to train 12 young researchers in seismology and Earth surface sciences. The trainees will use seismic methods to study a vast array of landforms, establishing techniques and software to set standards in seismic monitoring within Europe and beyond.
