ROW: Hydrovolcanism in the Western Snake River Plain: Deposits and Mechanisms

这是一项“妇女研究机会”研究计划奖，将允许PI利用休假时间研究斯内克河平原凝灰岩的喷发、运输、沉积和硬化过程。它将包括与爱达荷调查的成员一起进行实地测绘，以及对凝灰岩进行微观和扫描电镜研究。PI希望为进一步研究蛇河平原的物质确定目标，这将导致整个领域的火山/水文演化的四维概述。

This is a Research Opportunities for Women research planning award, which will allow the PI to spend a sabbatical working on the processes of eruption, transport, deposition and induration of Snake River Plain tuffs. It will involve field mapping with members of the Idaho Survey, as well as microscopic and SEM study of the tuffs. The PI hopes to define objectives for further study of Snake River Plain materials which will lead to a four- dimensional overview of the volcanic/hydrologic evolution of the entire field.
