EarthScope hosts regular web-based seminars featuring contributions from our staff, members of the seismological community, and other professionals across the geosciences. In 2020, the webinar series is broadening the scope to include presentations from members of the geodetic community. Many webinars highlight recent scientific results stemming directly from the facilities administered by EarthScope. Others are directed towards Early Career Investigators and focus on professional or technical development.

Previous webinars have been archived below.

All EarthScope Webinars are also available directly from our YouTube channel.

In addition to webinars, this August 18-20, 2020, there will be several Virtual Special Interest Group meetings that were originally planned as part of the 2020 GAGE/NSF SAGE workshop. More information and free registration will be available closer to the time of the events.
