Euro honour for Nigel Cassidy
Dr Nigel Cassidy has been selected by the European Association of Geoscientists and Engineers (EAGE) to represent the "The Best of Near-Surface Geophysics 2011" at the forthcoming 25th Anniversary Symposium on the Application of Geophysics to Environmental and Engineering Problems (SAGEEP) in Tuscon, Arizona.
The peer-evaluated accolade was awarded for his presentation entitled "A Comparison Between GPR and Ultrasonic Techniques for Void Detection Beneath Reinforced Concrete Sections" at the recent EAGE international Near-Surface Geophysics Conference in Leicester.
Dr Cassidy, whose research is a Royal Society funded collaboration with Fugro-Aperio Ltd, said: "It is an honour to be selected to represent the European Near-Surface Geophysics community in the States. Such opportunities are rare these days and it will be a pleasure to showcase the practical application of our recent research work."
