American Geosciences Institute
The American Geosciences Institute (AGI) and the American Institute of Professional Geologists (AIPG) are offering the next Geoscience Online Learning Initiative (GOLI) webinar titled, "Understanding Professional Geologist License Requirements: California 2019." The webinar will feature Laurie Racca, PG, from the California Board for Professional Engineers, Land Surveyors and Geologists.
This 90-minute webinar will focus on the qualification requirements to get a Professional Geologist (PG) license in California and upcoming changes that applicants should understand. It will also provide an overview of the California laws and regulations that govern the practice of geology. Knowledge of California's Geologist and Geophysicist Act along with the accompanying regulations is one of the responsibilities that is part of being a licensed professional.

AIPG
Hosted by AIPG National and the AIPG Wisconsin Section. Registration is open. Program
Workshop attendees will learn the history, chemistry, sampling techniques and current treatment options of PFAS, as well as developing regulatory proposals throughout the country. More than 4,700 PFAS (per- and polyfluorinated alkyl substances) exist in the world today. Many PFAS transform into highly persistent perfluorinated chemicals in the environment. Short-chain PFAS tend to be more water soluble and move more easily through soil to contaminate ground-water, surface water or drinking water.

Join the AIPG WI Section and the National Executive Committee on this field trip that will illustrate the geology of the PreCambrian Baraboo Range in southern Wisconsin. This area is well known to structural geology classes that travel there from throughout the Midwest to see the synclinal features of the area. Several stops will include structural elements of the range including steeply dipping layers in the quartzite formation, ripple marks, and boudinage and other deformation features. Adjacent geologic terrains will be discussed including the terminal moraine of the Pleistocene Wisconsin Glaciation, Cambrian sandstones of the "Driftless Area" and the Pleistocene Sauk Prairie.

AIPG will present a one-day workshop for students and young professionals at the Geological Society of America annual meeting, which will be held in Phoenix, Arizona. The workshop is intended to help students successfully transition from the classroom into the workforce and to guide both students and young professionals as they start careers in the mining industry. Participants will learn about the importance of balancing life and work demands, expectations of employers, how to navigate the hiring process, what techniques can be used to stand out as a candidate, how to prepare a CV and strategies for professional development.

In Geoscience Currents #138, we examine the trends of starting salaries of U.S. geoscience graduates between 2013 and 2018. With tightening hiring in the energy and engineering sector, salaries declined steadily from 2014 to 2017, but we saw a rebound in those salaries in 2018 with the strengthening of the labor market. Read this Currents to find out more about the recent history of starting salaries.

Energy Exposition
Attendees represent a wide range of services, including but not limited to, exploration, production, downstream and all phases of support to the industry. We have been privileged to have political attendees from the local community, city, county and state governments as well political luminaries such as former Vice President of the United States, Dick Cheney. In 2014 we were fortunate to have Vice President Dick Cheney as our Keynote Speaker. His daughter Liz (now U.S. Congresswoman Liz Cheney of Wyoming) also honored us by speaking at a couple of our events.
The Energy Exposition has educated tens of thousands of people in Gillette, Wyoming; Billings, Montana; and just recently Loveland, Colorado, over the last 19 years on procedures, technology, safety, environmental practices and equipment used in the oil and gas industry. Our doors have always been open to industry and non-industry attendees. Most of our exhibitors are from the oil and gas industry. We also welcome our participants from the wind, solar and other energy companies that support the oil and gas industry.

The degree to which bedrock-floored rivers are shaped by human action is poorly understood in comparison with gravel- and sand-bedded rivers. Yet, bedrock river erosion is thought to set the pace of landscape-scale evolution, and thus any human-induced bedrock erosion has the potential to have a cascading effect and alter both river networks and hillslopes.

Atmospheric Measurement Techniques
Volcanic eruptions pose an ever-present threat to human populations around the globe, but many active volcanoes remain poorly monitored. In regions where ground-based monitoring is present the effects of volcanic eruptions can be moderated through observational alerts to both local populations and service providers, such as air traffic control.

Mountain glaciers are losing ice at an increasing rate, but monitoring remote, high alpine glaciers using traditional glaciological field measurements is labor intensive and logistically challenging.

Biogeosciences
Determining the concentration and composition of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in glacial ecosystems is important for assessments of in situ microbial activity and contributions to wider biogeochemical cycles. Nonetheless, there is limited knowledge of the abundance and character of DOC in basal ice and the subglacial environment and a lack of quantitative data on low-molecular-weight (LMW) DOC components, which are believed to be highly bioavailable to microorganisms.

Geology
The responses of uranium-bearing accessory minerals to shock metamorphism have received growing interest, because under extreme pressure and temperature conditions, these phases can form unique microstructures and/or polymorphs and their radiometric ages can be partially to wholly reset.
