This award provides one-half the funding required to purchase the hardware for constructing a piston-cylinder type system for high-pressure research. The equipment will be constructed and operated in the Department of Geological Sciences at the University of Oregon. The University and Department are committed to providing the remaining half of the funding required for hardware acquisition and the expenses associated with building the apparatus. The new high-pressure system will be an end-loaded press capable of extended (up to six weeks) duration runs in the pressure-temperature region of 60 kilobars and 1600K with temperature stability of +/- 0.5K. Its capabilities will be employed in research on the melting of crustal rocks, the origin of magmatism in subduction zones, and the storage and migration patterns of melts at depth in the Earth.

这项奖励提供了购买硬件所需资金的一半，用于建造用于高压研究的活塞-气缸类型系统。该设备将在俄勒冈大学地质科学系建造和运行。大学和系致力于提供购买硬件所需的剩余一半资金以及与建造仪器相关的费用。新的高压系统将是一种端载式压力机，能够在60千巴和1600K的压力-温度范围内延长(长达六周)运行时间，温度稳定性为+/-0.5K。它的能力将用于研究地壳岩石的熔融、俯冲带中岩浆活动的起源以及地球深处熔体的储存和迁移模式。
