INDO-U.S. Geomagetism Symposium, Bombay, India, August 22-26, 1994, Award in Indian Currency

9412800这项建议将支持美国和印度在地磁学方面的第一次联合研讨会，该研讨会将由印度地磁学研究所主办，于1994年8月22-26日在孟买举行。其目的是与印度科学家一起探索有前景的新研究领域，如赤道电喷流对磁场卫星的影响、印度洋的海洋磁数据、岩石磁学和生物磁学。该研讨会是由美国地球动力学委员会发起并得到美国国家科学基金会支持的一个研讨会的成果，题为“全球磁环境：挑战和机遇”，华盛顿特区，1992年3月。讲习班专题包括：1)适用于地球深处、地壳、海洋、电离层和近地环境的地磁研究范围；2)新的研究领域；3)确定观测站/共享设施的更佳位置；4)新兴方案的全球方面。范围：考虑到美国地磁学家对了解他们的印度同事的工作表现出的强烈兴趣，以及印度长期以来与美国科学家合作的愿望，拟议中的研讨会是开始印度和美国地磁学家之间交流的一个非常有效的工具。NSF将为参加此次研讨会的五名美国与会者提供旅行支持。印度地处地磁赤道的位置为美国在该领域的合作提供了独特的机会*

9412800 Cande Description: This proposal will support the first joint U.S.- Indo symposium in geomagnetism which will be hosted by the Indian Institute of Geomagnetism (IIG), Bombay, August 22-26, 1994. Its purpose is to explore promising new areas of research with Indian scientists such as the effect of the equatorial electrojet on magnetic field satellites, marine magnetic data from the Indian Ocean, rock magnetism, and biomagnetism. The symposium is an activity resulting from a workshop initiated by the U.S. Geodynamics Committee and supported by NSF, "The Global Magnetic Environment: Challenges and Opportunities, Washington, D.C., March 1992." Workshop topics included: 1) the scope of geomagnetic research as applied to the deep Earth, the Earth's crust, the oceans, the ionosphere and near Earth Environment, 2) new areas of research, 3) identification of more optimum locations for observatories/shared facilities, and 4) the global aspects of emerging programs. Scope: Considering the strong interest expressed by American geomagnetists in learning about the work of their Indian colleagues, as well as India's long standing desire to collaborate with US scientists, the proposed symposium is a highly effective vehicle for beginning communication between Indian and U.S. geomagnetists. NSF will provide travel support for five US participants at this workshop. India's location at the geomagnetic equator provides unique opportunities for collaboration in this field for the U.S. ***
