Review the first slate of articles for Interpretation.
The inaugural issue of Interpretation, a new journal jointly published by SEG and AAPG, has been completed and will be mailed free-of-charge to print recipients of the EXPLORER and The Leading Edge in early August.
Articles in the initial issue of Interpretation will include:
