U.S.-Japan Joint Seminar: Geochemical and Geophysical Studies of the Izu-Bonin-Mariana Arc System

9513105该奖项支持12名美国科学家参加将于1996年7月27日至8月1日在东京附近举行的美日研讨会和实地考察。联合组织者是德克萨斯大学达拉斯分校的罗伯特·斯特恩博士和横滨国立大学的有间真玛教授。本次会议的主要目的是讨论对3000公里长的伊豆-博宁-马里亚纳会聚边缘(IBM ARC系统)的了解现状，并为该ARC系统未来的合作研究计划制定计划。共有12名日本科学家、12名美国科学家和3名外国科学家将参加此次活动。IBM弧的五个方面将是讲习班和实地考察的重点：1)弧和弧后盆地岩浆的产生；2)早期弧史和弧前演化；3)弧后盆地演化；4)热液作用和矿床；5)地壳和岩石圈结构。美国参与者在西太平洋汇聚边缘进程领域提供了广泛的专业知识和地理代表性，并根据他们是美国最活跃的研究人员而被挑选出来。因此，这项建议实现了该计划通过国际合作交流和转让科学知识的目标。***

9513105 Stern This award supports the participation of 12 U.S. scientists in a U.S.-Japan workshop and field trip, to be held near Tokyo from July 27 to August 1. 1996. The co-organizers are Dr. Robert Stern of the University of Texas at Dallas and Professor Makoto Arima of the Yokohama National University. The main purpose of this meeting is to discuss the state of present understanding of the 3000 km long Izu-Bonin-Mariana convergent margin (IBM arc system), and to develop plans for future cooperative research programs in this arc system. A total of 12 Japanese, 12 U.S., and 3 foreign scientists will participate. Five aspects of the IBM arc will be the focus of the workshop and field trip: 1) Generation of arc and back-arc basin magmas; 2) Early arc history and forearc evolution; 3) Back-arc basin evolution; and 4) Hydrothermal processes and ore deposits; and 5) Crustal and lithospheric structure. The U.S. participants provide a broad cross section of expertise and geographical representation in the area of Western Pacific convergent margin processes, and were selected on the basis of being the most active researchers in the U.S. Therefore, this proposal fulfills the objectives of the Program in its exchange and transfer of scientific knowledge through an international collaboration. ***
