Petrologic Transects Through the Western Alps: This award recommendation is made under the U.S.-Industrialized Countries Program for the Exchange of Scientists and Engineers, 1987/1988 Competition. The program is designed to enable U.S. scientists and engineers to conduct long-term research at research institutions in the industrialized countries of Western Europe as well as Japan, Australia and New Zealand. Exchange awards provide opportunities for the conduct of joint research and the utilization of unique or complementary facilities, expertise and experimental conditions in foreign countries. Awards are selected on the basis of scientific criteria relevant to his/her field of science, the propsective potential of the applicants for professional growth, as well as criteria relevant to the furthering of international cooperation in science and engineering. The program is particularly directed to scientists and engineers who are embarking on their research careers. This research project will address problems of high-pressure metamorphism occurring in the Western Alps, where crustal rocks have been subjected to a wide range of pressures. It is proposed to take advantage of that range of pressures by undertaking sampling traverses across the structural grain of the Western Alps from the Brionconais zone to the Dora Maira massif on the French-Italian border. The project is under the direction of Dr. Brian E. Patrick, Department of Geological Sciences, University of Washington, Seattle, WA 98115, U.S.A., and Professor Christian Chopin, Ecole Normale Superieure, Laboratoire de Geologie, 46, rue d'Ulm, 75230, Paris, France. This award recommendation provides funds to cover, as appropriate, international travel, local travel abroad, stipend, dependents allowance, if applicable, language training, if required, and a flat administrative allowance of $250 for the U.S. home institution.

穿越西阿尔卑斯山的岩石样带：该奖项是在美国-工业化国家科学家和工程师交流计划1987/1988竞赛下提出的。该项目旨在使美国科学家和工程师能够在西欧工业化国家以及日本、澳大利亚和新西兰的研究机构进行长期研究。交换奖为进行联合研究和利用国外独特或互补的设施、专门知识和实验条件提供了机会。奖项的评选依据是与其科学领域相关的科学标准、申请人在专业发展方面的前景潜力，以及与促进国际科学与工程合作有关的标准。该项目特别针对正在从事研究工作的科学家和工程师。这个研究项目将解决发生在西阿尔卑斯山的高压变质问题，那里的地壳岩石已经受到了广泛的压力。有人建议利用这一压力范围，从布里昂科奈斯区到法国-意大利边境的多拉Maira地块，在西阿尔卑斯山的结构颗粒上进行采样穿越。本项目由美国西雅图华盛顿大学地质科学系Brian E. Patrick博士和法国巴黎乌尔姆街46号地质实验室Christian Chopin教授指导。该奖励建议提供资金，酌情支付国际旅行，国外本地旅行，津贴，家属津贴（如果适用），语言培训（如果需要），以及美国本土机构250美元的固定行政津贴。
