Upgrading the seismology/geodynamic computational facilitiesat Yale

这项奖励提供了购买计算机系统所需资金的一半，该计算机系统将安装在耶鲁大学地质和地球物理系，主要供地震学和地球动力学教师及其学生使用。耶鲁大学承诺提供剩余一半的资金。该系统增加的计算能力将应用于地幔流变性、地核对流、地震各向异性建模、地球自由振荡、全球尺度地震层析成像以及其他计算密集型地球物理研究项目。

This award provides one-half the funding required for the acquisition of a computer system that will installed in the Department of Geology and Geophysics at Yale University and used primarily by the seismology and geodynamics faculty and their students. Yale University is committed to providing the remaining half of the funding. The added computing power of the system will be applied to problems of mantle rheology, convection in the Earth's core, seismic anisotropy modeling, free oscillations of the Earth, global scale seismic tomography, and other computing-intensive geophysical research projects.
