CREWES

CREWES traces its origin to the year 1988 when Professors Rob Stewart, Don Lawton, and Jim Brown decided that the University-Industry consortium model could work in Canada to fund research and training in exploration seismology. We now have 37 years of history to document the clarity of their vision. Over this period, CREWES has seen the successful completion of 138 Masters degrees and 65 PhD`s. There have been 2164 CREWES research reports, resulting in 977 expanded (4-page) abstracts presented at geophysical conventions... The Consortium for Research in Elastic Wave Exploration Seismology (CREWES Project) is an industry and government funded research group that investigates and creates new and powerful means of mapping and understanding geological systems using seismic methods. A little like an MRI or CAT scan in medicine, we illuminate the subsurface with a field (in our case a sound field), sense the response of the unknown system to the incident sound, and use those measurements..
