U.S.-Vietnam Joint Workshop: Collision-Related Mantle Flow Fields Beneath East and Southeast Asia

这是西北大学的Raymond Russo博士和伊利诺伊大学的Martin Flower博士提交的一份研讨会提案，要求支付旅费，使15名美国科学家能够参加有关东亚和东南亚地下地幔流场碰撞的研讨会。会议将于2002年1月6日至16日在越南下龙湾举行。研讨会的主题对于地球科学和理解印度-欧亚板块碰撞是世界上最大的大陆碰撞具有重要意义。拟议的参与者名单令人印象深刻，包括来自美国研究所的年轻、女性和少数族裔科学家，代表了许多地球科学学科。美国科学家参加这次研讨会可能会在美国和越南科学家之间产生一些新的合作研究。美国国家科学基金会和越南地质调查局共同支持本次研讨会。

0129492RussoThis is a workshop proposal submitted by Dr. Raymond Russo, Northwestern University, and Dr. Martin Flower, the University of Illinois, to request travel expenses to enable 15 U.S. scientists to attend workshop on collision-related mantle flow fields beneath East and Southeast Asia. The meeting will be held in Halong Bay, Vietnam, from January 6-16, 2002. The topic of the workshop is important for earth sciences and for understanding the India-Eurasia plate collision, which is the largest continental collision in the world. The proposed list of participants is impressive, including younger, women and minority scientists from U.S. institutes, and represents many earth science disciplines. Participation in this workshop by U.S. scientists will likely result in a number of new collaborative studies between the U.S. and Vietnamese scientists. The NSF and the Geological Survey of Vietnam jointly support this workshop.
