NSF Young Investigator

NYI 奖的资助对象是杜克大学的 Emily Klein，她的研究项目包括海脊玄武岩化学与地壳厚度和水深测量的全球关联、使用同位素识别地幔对流细胞边界（例如澳大利亚-南极不一致）、智利脊俯冲及其对 MOR 熔体聚焦问题的影响。她的研究项目总体上都是为了了解地幔熔化过程和海洋岩石圈的形成这一统一主题。克莱因曾获得多项奖项，并担任一家期刊的编辑委员会成员。过去三年，她一直在杜克大学教授地质学和地球化学的基础和高级本科生和研究生课程。克莱因还获得了礼来基金会的奖项，用于开发新的地质学高级本科课程。 Klein 有几个合作项目，打算开发用于玄武岩中 Pb 常规分析的分析技术。

Funds are provided for NYI award to Emily Klein of Duke University whose research projects range from global correlation of ocean- ridge basalt chemistry with crustal thickness and bathymetry, identification of mantle convection cell boundaries (e.g., Australian-Antarctic Discordance) using isotopes to chile ridge subduction and its bearing on melt focussing problem at MORs. Her research projects are all n general geared toward a unifying theme of understanding mantle melting processes and the creation of the oceanic lithosphere. Klein has received several awards and serves on the editorial board of a journal. She has been teaching both basic and advanced Undergraduate and Graduate courses in Geology and Geochemistry at Duke University for the past three years. Klein has also received a Lilly Foundation award to develop a new advanced level undergraduate course in Geology. Klein has several collaborative projects and intends to develop analytical techniques for routine analysis of Pb in basaltic rocks.
