American Geosciences
The American Geosciences Institute (AGI) and the American Institute of Professional Geologists (AIPG) are offering the next Geoscience Online Learning Initiative (GOLI) webinar titled, "Well Re-Development Permitting Considerations and Costs."
This is the fourth and final webinar in this series, which will talk about how the costs for well re-development will vary. For a well that has not been maintained, the costs and methods for re-development can be very high. For well-maintained wells, re-development costs should be less. Remember that part of the re-development is to examine the well pump and motor and column pipe. State and local regulations must be followed as part of the re-development process.
Please contact AGI's Workforce Development Specialist Heather Houlton with any questions about AGI's GOLI offerings.
Stay tuned for future emails about next year's GOLI course offerings!

Hosted by AIPG National and the AIPG Wisconsin Section
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.

Foundation of the AIPG
It is that time of year. As you review your dues statement for 2019 and look at end-of-the-year donations, please take the opportunity to include a donation to the Foundation of the American Institute of Professional Geologists. The Foundation is a 501(c)(3) organization so your donation is eligible for a deduction on your taxes. We ask that you support the Foundation with monetary contributions that would be used primarily to fund our scholarship and young professional initiatives, and other Foundation programs as well. The Foundation relies on the support of generous individual and corporate or group donors for financial contributions or gifts in kind.

Annual Membership Meeting Announcement
Please join us at the FR 8 House Kitchen and Tap, 200 S. Camino Del Pueblo, in Bernalillo, New Mexico at 11:00 for our annual membership meeting.
Please consider nominations for the Treasurer and Vice President positions. Send them by email to John Sorrell and he will share them with the Executive Committee and a ballot will be sent out on or about Nov. 1.
We will continue to work toward developing a five year plan and attempt to implement a one year plan. Information from the National Convention recently held in Colorado will be given. We also would like to establish a student liaison committee to continue the development of Earth Science professionals from New Mexico institutions of higher learning, like has been established in Socorro.
This will be the business meeting we need to continue to move our section forward to benefit our membership. We will be presenting information about National resources and efforts being made to work closely with AGI and others to benefit our profession.
Please contact John Sorrell with any nominations you may have for the aforementioned open positions, Vice President and Treasure. An announcement of the successful election of the new officers for President Elect (Vice President) and Treasurer will be made.

On Sept. 7, 2017, a magnitude 8.2 earthquake struck southern Mexico, killing dozens and injuring hundreds. While earthquakes are common enough in the region, this powerful event wasn't any run-of-the-mill tremor. That's because part of the roughly 37-mile-thick tectonic plate responsible for the quake completely split apart, as revealed by a new study in Nature Geoscience. This event took place in a matter of tens of seconds, and it coincided with a gargantuan release of energy.

Imaging the shallow velocity structures beneath Aso caldera is necessary to further understand volcanism at the volcano and in the region. The network for monitoring Aso volcano has been progressively renewed and upgraded with denser and more modern instruments. We used approximately four years of seismic data recorded by a network of 25 seismic stations to image S-wave velocity (Vs) structures beneath Aso caldera with seismic noise interferometry.

Arizona is about 8,500 miles from Australia — more than a third of the world away. Yet scientists think a chunk of the mountainous walls of the Grand Canyon now sits in the land down under.
Researchers found rocks in Tasmania that contain minerals with a similar geochemical make-up to some of the oldest rock layers of the iconic American landmark. They published their results earlier this month in the journal Geology.

The foreshock plasma exhibits large-amplitude disturbance in the plasma density and the magnetic field. The question of the density response to the magnetic field fluctuation is addressed and studied observationally and statistically using the in situ Cluster spacecraft data of the foreshock plasma. Three major findings are obtained.

We discuss the influence of different statistical models in the prediction of porosity and litho-fluid facies from logged and inverted acoustic impedance (Ip) values. We compare the inversion and classification results that were obtained under three different statistical a-priori assumptions: an analytical Gaussian distribution, an analytical Gaussian-mixture model, and a non-parametric mixtu re distribution.

Using 630 nm airglow data observed by an airglow imager on the International Space Station (ISS), the occurrence of equatorial plasma bubbles (EPBs) is studied. In order to examine the physical mechanisms in the boundary region between the Earth and the outer space, an ionosphere, mesosphere, upper atmosphere and plasmasphere mapping (IMAP) mission had been conducted onboard the ISS since October 2012.
