Seismic Processing and Acquisition Equipment for the Rice Geophysics Program

小行星9316711 该合同提供了赖斯大学地质与地球物理系反射地震学研究小组购买60通道24位数字地震仪、电缆、地震检波器和震源所需资金的73%。大学承诺提供购置设备所需的剩余资金。 莱斯大学的项目将利用地震仪系统在他们目前的研究项目，其中包括陆地和海洋地震实验在布莱克高原，卡罗莱纳槽，墨西哥湾，哈顿-罗卡尔银行，中央加州转换边缘，阿留申弧，和布鲁克斯范围在阿拉斯加。 这些项目和其他正在进行的项目得到国家科学基金会和海军研究办公室的支助，目的是更好地了解地壳结构和地震成像技术方法。 ***

9316711 Levander This award provides 73 percent of the funds required for the acquisition of a 60-channel digital 24-bit seismograph, cables, geophones, and a seismic source to be used by the reflection seismology research group in the Department of Geology and Geophysics at Rice University. The University is committed to providing the remaining funds necessary to acquire the equipment. The Rice University program will utilize the seismograph system in their current research projects which include land and marine seismic experiments in the Blake Plateau, Carolina Trough, Gulf of Mexico, the Hatton-Rockall Bank, central California transform margin, Aleutian Arc, and the Brooks Range in Alaska. These and other active projects are supported by the National Science Foundation and the Office of Naval Research and are aimed at a better understanding of the structure of the Earth's crust and of the methodology of seismic imaging techniques. ***
