9305890 Dziewonski This project initiates a community-wide study of the core-mantle boundary, one of the most significant regions of our planet. As a result of the past decade's research advances, the geosciences community is on the verge of making significant breakthroughs in understanding how the Earth evolves on a global scale. Because the dynamics of the deep planetary interior involves many different facets of the Earth sciences, from geomagnetism and seismology to mineral physics and geodynamics, a multi-disciplinary approach is essential. An average of less than $30 K/yr for each investigator will allow them to pursue this effort in a truly collaborative and interdisciplinary manner. This project will yield important new observations and theoretical analyses bearing on the core-mantle boundary, and will support the participation of the broader community of interested geoscientists. Significant advances in our understanding of the Earth's geological evolution -- far beyond what would be achieved by the individual groups working separately -- will result from this collaborative, multi-disciplinary effort. ***

小行星9305890 该项目启动了一个社区范围内的核幔边界，我们这个星球上最重要的地区之一的研究。 由于过去十年的研究进展，地球科学界即将在了解地球如何在全球范围内演变方面取得重大突破。 由于行星深层内部的动力学涉及地球科学的许多不同方面，从地磁学和地震学到矿物物理学和地球动力学，因此必须采取多学科的方法。 每个研究人员平均每年不到3万美元的费用将使他们能够以真正的协作和跨学科的方式开展这项工作。 这一项目将产生对地核-地幔边界有影响的重要的新观测和理论分析，并将支持更广泛的感兴趣的地球科学家的参与。 这种多学科的合作努力将使我们对地球地质演变的认识取得重大进展，远远超过个别小组单独工作所能取得的进展。 ***
