BRING WITH YOU ON THE TRIP:  A sealed envelope with your name and birthdate on the outside.  On the inside put a piece of paper with the following information: person to contact in case of an emergency; a list of any medications you are currently taking; a list of anything you are allergic to; any other information that might be useful for a doctor to know about your medical history in an emergency if you are unable to answer questions.

This envelope will be returned to you unopened at the end of the trip.  In the unlikely event that you have a medical emergency and are not able to answer questions about your medical history, this envelope will be given to the emergency response personnel.

In the field, we will be running simultaneously seismic, resistivity, GPR, magnetic and gravity surveys, as well as surveying the experiment locations with GPS. This will necessitate dividing the class into field crews for each day's work. Field crews will be assigned in advance (the previous evening). Every student will need to rotate through all the experiments (including surveying) during the days in the field. There will be a limited number of slots per experiment for each day, so that there will be sufficient personnel for the more labor intensive field work. The field crews will also attempt to mix students so that they all have a chance to work with each other and with each of the instructors.

The data we acquire will be communal and will be analyzed by the entire class. You are expected to keep clear notes for each experiment you participate in so that students not present for that particular experiment can understand and have all relevant and required information for interpretation.

You will be individually responsible for submitting a written report, of which the interpretation part and discussion of the scientific problem must be your own work. We expect the individual portion of your report will be ~6 pages in length. You will be required to write a draft version of the geologic/tectonic overview of the area and the scientific problems being addressed before going to the field. The introduction for this report is due on Friday, June 1, 2007 by 5 p.m.. It will be graded and returned before we go into the field. Your suggestions regarding the scientific objectives are also due by Friday, June 1, 2007, at 5 p.m.. The Ge111b final report is due by 5 p.m., Wed. June 20, 2007. NO LATE REPORTS WILL BE ACCEPTED!

We will return from the field by Saturday evening, June 16. Monday-Wednesday (June 18-20) will be in-house analysis days in the computer lab. Joann, Rob, Michelle and Sonja will keep regular office hours those three days and will be available for consultation.

You will submit your report, whatever state it is in, by 5 p.m. PDT, Wednesday, June 20, 2007. The grade for the class will be available on Friday, June 22.
