EAR-0002533Marc SpiegelmanThis proposal requests funds to help support travel costs of U.S. participants to the 23rd International Conference on Mathematical Geophysics. This year's conference is titled Extreme Earth Events. The conference focuses on systems that display sudden transitions from quiescent states to crises, extreme events, catastrophic or disastrous instabilities. Examples range from large natural catastrophes such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, hurricanes and tornadoes, landslides, avalanches, mass extinctions and catastrophic events of environmental degradation, to the failure of engineering structures, crashes in the stock market, social unrest and economic disruptions on national and global scales, regional power blackouts, traffic gridlock, diseases and epidemics. The purpose of this conference is to provide a forum that allows scientists from a full range of scientific disciplines to interact with each other and with experts in the math and physics community.

该提案要求提供资金，以帮助支持美国参加第23届数学地球物理国际会议的旅费。 今年的会议主题是极端地球事件。 会议重点关注从静态到危机，极端事件，灾难性或灾难性不稳定性的突然转变的系统。 这方面的例子包括大规模自然灾害，如地震、火山爆发、飓风和龙卷风、山崩、雪崩、大规模破坏和环境退化的灾难性事件，以及工程结构的故障、股票市场的崩溃、国家和全球范围的社会动荡和经济混乱、区域停电、交通堵塞、疾病和流行病。 本次会议的目的是提供一个论坛，让来自全方位科学学科的科学家相互交流，并与数学和物理界的专家交流。
