Acquisition of a Seismic Computing Facility

该合同提供了40%的资金用于购买计算机系统，该系统将安装在加州大学圣克鲁斯分校的构造学研究所。大学承诺提供所需的剩余资金。该计算机系统将主要由构造研究所的反射地震学小组使用。该小组研究项目中的应用实例包括开发和实施增强地震成像算法，处理和解释便携式地震仪阵列现场实验产生的区域和大陆尺度数据，以及绘制岩石圈结构。

This award provides 40% funding for the acquisition of a computer system to be installed in the Institute of Tectonics at the University of California, Santa Cruz. The University is committed to providing the remaining funds needed. The computer system will be used primarily by the reflection seismology group at the Institute of Tectonics. Examples of applications in the research projects of the group include the development and implementation of enhanced seismic imaging algorithms, the processing and interpretation of regional and continental scale data produced by portable seismograph array field experiments, and the mapping of lithosphere structures.
