Lecture and ...	Monday and Wednesday E213 7.30-8.30 a.m. 1+ Saturday field day (voluntary)
Lab times	11.00 a.m. - 2.00 p.m. Tuesdays E217 Subsurface Lab
Office hours	Mondays and Wednesdays by appointment For appointments and all correspondence e-mail: gllore@lsu.edu Subject:  GEOL1001
Required textbooks for Lecture (Liner) and Lab (Forel et al.)	Elements of 3-D seismology by Chris L. Liner, 2004, 608 pp. Second Edition (Table of Contents) Seismic Data Processing with Seismic Un*x 2007 Forel, D. Benz, T. and Pennington, W. 2007, 16 capters, SEG, OK.
Goals:	Introduction to 2D and 3D seismic data acquisition, processing and limitations of seismic interpretation in the context of deep (0-10 km) and near-surface (0-100m) seismology.
Course work	Weekly homework, a field-based seismic processing project, one midterm and one final in-class exam. Lectures  will be dedicated to the presentation of concepts covered by the course textbook and Labs will be dedicated to exercises using academic and industrial seismic processing software in the Subsurface Laboratory (E217).  Lab work will include processing of an original data set.  All homeworks and lab exercises, with the exception of the final project, are due one week after they are handed out, at the beginning of each class.
Recommended prior courses or experience	Math I, II, Physics-I, programming experience with a high-level language like Excel,Matlab or Maple, etc. Web navigation
Course Grades	Final letter grades are calculated using the results of weekly lecture homework and in-lab exercises (30%), a midterm exam (15%), a final  lab project (55%).  A (90-100%) , B (80-89.5%), C (60-79.5%) D (50-59.5%), F (less than 49.5%) Graduate students taking this course will be held to a higher standard, commensurate with their academic seniority.
Tentative	Lectures by industry geophysicist: This semester we will have: Eric Zimmermann
COLOR CODES	In Powerpoint (GREEN) format, in MSWord (BLUE) format and as old html files, .
Program Downloads	Matlab programs for lectures ---> SEA  (self-expanding archive)
