Instruction for Camera-Ready Extended Abstract

SEGJ is publishing a Proceedings of oral and poster presentations at the Symposium. All authors are requested to submit a camera ready manuscript for publication in this Proceedings in the form described below. Please download the MS-Word template of the extended abstract. This Proceedings will be delivered to all registrants, and a limited number of copies will be available for sale after the Symposium by contacting the SEGJ office. Since the papers of this Proceedings will not be a peer-reviewed publication, authors may feel free to submit more complete descriptions of their research to appropriate journals. In order to assure quality of the Proceedings, all manuscripts are forwarded to reviewers. Authors may be advised for revising manuscripts.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
Each author must prepare a camera ready manuscript and lay it out within 6 pages including figures, illustrations, and tables in place. It is strongly recommended the manuscript should be ended in even pages. Authors are allowed to embed colored illustrations in a manuscript, however, all of the contents will be printed in monochrome. For the excess pages over 6 pages, and/or for the color printing, the authors are requested to pay extra page charge. The proceedings will be produced by a photo-offset process directly from the pages supplied by the authors. Please check your paper carefully when sending the final camera-ready manuscript. The guidelines of camera-ready manuscript are described below.

The way you submit your manuscript is the way you will see it in print. The guidelines of camera-ready manuscript are described below. An example of camera-ready manuscript can be seen in a pdf file. You will be able to print an example by Adobe Acrobat®: reader.

ELECTRIC ONLINE SUBMISSION
You should already receive your paper identification number from the Technical Program Committee. Use this ID for a filename like "id0404040" when sending your manuscript. In order to assure quality of the Proceedings, all manuscripts are forwarded to reviewers. Authors may be advised for revising manuscripts. When you have revised your paper, we request you to submit it as PDF file through our Web site. Total size of the file should be less than 3 MB. There are several programs to create PDF files, but none are free except for some freeware softwares. We strongly recommend you to use Adobe Acrobat to convert your document into a PDF file. If you cannot create a good PDF file, please contact the Technical Program Committee.

PAGE SIZE AND TEXT AREA
The printed page size of the proceedings will be A4 (210 x 297 mm). Authors can use standard (8 1/2 x 11 inches) or A4 stationery for printing camera-ready paper. Page margins should be 25 mm or 1 inch on the top and bottom, and 20 mm or 4/5 inch both sides. Pages will be reproduced at 100% (exact size) in the printing process.

FONT FACE AND SIZE
All manuscripts must be written in English except proper nouns; names, affiliations, places, etc. Use font face Times Roman (Times New Roman) or Century. If your wordprocessing system does not support above fonts, use the font close to them (like Dutch).

TITLE, AUTHOR(S) and AFFILIATION(S)
Use flush left for Title, author(s) and affiliation(s) in FULL TEXT WIDTH. Title must appear first, written in bold face and font size 14 pt. MAKE ONE LINE SPACE after title. Author's name are written in an order: given name, middle name, and surname. If an author has middle name, write only an initial for either first or middle name. Use font size 12 pt for author's name and 10 pt for affiliation. You do not have to use bold face for author's name. Affiliation(s) and address(es) follow after author(s). Address(es) can include e-mail address of each author, but never include each author's title and phone and fax number. Use italic for affiliation(s) and address, and never use bold. If authors affiliations are different, use numbers for indicating each author's affiliation. Numbers are superscripted and located at the end of each author's name. Superscripted numbers are located at the head of each corresponding affiliation. Author(s) and affiliation(s) should be left aligned and written in full text width. MAKE ONE LINE SPACE between affiliation and the main body of text.

MAIN BODY
Use 10-point font for the main body of the text. Print the main body of the text in TWO COLUMNS. Make 5-8mm column space between columns. The main body of the text should start with ABSTRACT or SUMMARY. ABSTRACT or SUMMARY should be 200-300 words and need not be the same as the one submitted previously as a short abstract.
KEY WORDS are suggested to appear following ABSTRACT or SUMMARY. Choose 3 or 4 keywords and print them immediately after ABSTRACT or SUMMARY in a new paragraph which starts with "KEY WORDS:". Divide your paper into sections (or subsections, if necessary), and format it by the headings. Use bold and capitalized letter for each heading, and align each heading to the left. Heading is independent short paragraph. Subsection headings are same as section headings, but they are not bold face.

EQUATIONS
Number all equations by enclosing in parentheses, and place the equation number to end at the right-hand margin. Equation numbers must be sequential. You can use sub numbering for equation numbers, if necessary. Make equations clear and legible, centered, with a space above and below. Place each equation on a separate line. Equations should be the same point size as the text. Please follow the standard style when writing equations: italics for variables, bold face for vectors, etc. Width of equation is within the column width. When you write long equations, you may think it is better to write equations in full width. In such a case, you can change the page style from a two column page to a full-width single column page. An example for equations and tables can be seen in pdf files.

UNITS AND ACRONYMS
International System of Units (SI units) is preferable. Define any acronyms the first time you use them, in parentheses following the acronym; NMO (Normal MoveOut), CSAMT (Controlled Source Audiofrequency Magnetotellurics), etc.

TABLES
Tables should appear within the text close to where they are first cited. Be sure that the data is concisely presented and that any abbreviations used are defined. Type tables in 10 point. Number tables sequentially in the text. Table number/table title head is left-aligned above the table. The word "Table" and the number in the same font face as that used in text, and punctuated with a period. Type table title in the same font and point size as the text. Table footnote are the same point size as the text. Table titles should be aligned left.
For table width, use single width that is within a column width, or full width that is larger than the column width but within full width of the text area. You can use a landscape page for tables, if necessary. Full width tables are suggested to be placed at the head or bottom of the page. An example for equations and tables can be seen in pdf files.

FIGURES
For both fine drawings and photographs, the legibility of the illustration is vital. Clearly label each figure and number them consecutively. Use alphabetical sub system for indicating figures (eg. Figure 3a). Cite all illustrations in the text consecutively and place the figures as close as possible to their first mention in the text. For images, grey scale figures or hatched area, you must be careful that they are reproduced in offset printing. Too fine images or too narrow hatched lines may not be reproduced in offset printing. Reduce figures within single or full width. Full width figures are suggested to be placed at the head or bottom of the page. Place figure captions below the illustration. Type the word "Figure 1" followed by a period, and then type the caption in 10 point font face same as the main body of text. Use Fig. 1 or Figure 1 when you cite figures in the text. You need not center the caption even it is shorter than the text width.

COLOR FIGURES
You can insert color figure pages by paying page charge. Please ask Technical Program Committee for details.

MAPS OR FOLD-DOWN PAGES
You can insert large maps or fold-down pages. Please ask Technical Program Committee for details. They may be counted as two pages.

REFERENCES
Type the word "REFERENCES" as a heading in bold 10 point. For each reference, a dangling indent with 4-8 mm is preferable rather than numbering. Samples are shown below without dangling indent of the paragraph.

For a journal paper: Last name(s) and initial(s) of author(s), year of publication, title of paper, name of journal (preferably in italic), volume number (bold), inclusive page numbers with hyphen.
