Seismic Instrumentation for Introductory Geophysics Laboratory

印第安纳大学地质学系的这一奖项是对提交给国家科学基金会仪器和实验室改进计划的一项建议的回应。该合同将提供购买便携式地震仪所需资金的一半。该大学致力于为这台设备提供与NSF相同的捐款。购置地震仪将使该部能够为地球物理入门课程设计一套实验室和实地练习，目的是教授处理和解释地震折射和反射测量的实地方法和分析技术。

This award to Indiana University's Department of Geology is made in response to a proposal submitted to the National Science Foundation's Instrumentation and Laboratory Improvement Program. The award will provide one-half of the funds needed to acquire a portable seismograph. The University is committed to matching the NSF contribution for this equipment. The acquisition of the seismograph will allow the department to design a set of laboratory and field exercises for an introductory geophysics course intended to teach field methods in seismic mapping and analytical techniques for processing and interpreting seismic refraction and reflection measurements.
