9526730 Ni This grant provides $35,000 as partial support of the costs of acquiring hardware, software and peripherals to upgrade a computer laboratory used for research in computational and observational seismology. Specific research includes studies of active tectonics in southern Tibet and, eventually, the monitoring of the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty (CTBT), which prohibits all nuclear weapons testing. The bulk of this equipment request includes a new Sun SPARCstation 20 server, 2 Sun SPARCstation 5's, increased storage capacity and programming and data analysis software. The upgrade will benefit a small but growing number of faculty and students in the Geophysics department at New Mexico State University. ***

9526730这笔赠款提供35 000美元，作为购买硬件、软件和外围设备的部分支助，用于升级用于计算和观测地震学研究的计算机实验室。具体研究包括对西藏南部活动构造的研究，以及最终对禁止所有核武器试验的《全面禁止核试验条约》(CTBT)的监测。该设备申请的主要内容包括一台新的Sun SPARCStation 20服务器、两台Sun SPARCStation 5‘S、增加的存储容量以及编程和数据分析软件。这次升级将使新墨西哥州立大学地球物理系的少数但不断增加的教职员工和学生受益。***
