This award will support a seminar, "Neogene Siliceous Sediments of the Pacific Region," organized jointly by Prof. Robert E. Garrison of the University of California, Santa Cruz, and Prof. Azuma Iijima of the University of Tokyo, Japan. Participants will meet in Santa Cruz and Santa Barbara, California, June 21 to 27, 1989 to discuss neogene organic-rich and diatomaceous sediments and to visit selected neogene sedimentary basins. These sediments, which are observed around much of the Pacific rim, are the major source and storage rocks for petroleum in both California and Japan. Furthermore, they record significant global paleoceanographic events, such as intensified upwelling, and thus have considerable economic and historical significance. The seminar will be organized so that five major themes are discussed: the correlation between biological and geological stratification; cycles in the earth's crust; depositional environments; diagenesis; and natural resources and basin analysis. By comparing the development of neogene sediments in Japan and California, and by summarizing the latest research results in both countries, participants should be able not only to advance the state of knowledge in the field, but also to clearly identify the significant unresolved issues and act to promote future trans-Pacific collaborative research in this area.

该奖项将支持由加州大学圣克鲁斯分校Robert E. Garrison教授和日本东京大学Azuma饭岛教授联合举办的“太平洋地区新近纪硅质沉积物”研讨会。与会者将于1989年6月21日至27日在加利福尼亚州的圣克鲁兹和圣巴巴拉会面，讨论新近纪富含有机物和硅藻质的沉积物，并参观选定的新近纪沉积盆地。在太平洋沿岸的大部分地区都可以观察到这些沉积物，它们是加利福尼亚和日本石油的主要来源和储存岩石。此外，它们还记录了重大的全球古海洋学事件，如上升流加剧，因此具有相当大的经济和历史意义。研讨会的组织将讨论五个主要主题：生物分层和地质分层之间的相互关系；地壳的循环；沉积环境;成岩作用;以及自然资源和流域分析。通过比较日本和加州新近纪沉积物的发育，总结两国最新的研究成果，与会者不仅能够推进该领域的知识状况，而且能够清楚地认识到尚未解决的重大问题，并采取行动促进该领域未来的跨太平洋合作研究。
