EAR-0446541ChamberlainStanford and the U.S. Geological Survey jointly operate an ion microprobe laboratory located at Stanford University. This facility serves as a key component of the earth science community efforts in geochronology because of its unique ability to determine radiometric ages at a high spatial resolution. Conventional U-Th-Pb and U-Th geochronology of zircon, monazite and sphene have been core research activities in the laboratory. We will continue to try to meet the growing demand for ion probe geochronology from our colleagues at Stanford, USGS and in the external research community. To meet user demand within our department and from visiting NSF-funded users, we will use the funds from this NSF grant to fund three years of 50% salary support for a Ph.D. level research scientist. The School of Earth Sciences and Department of Geological and Environmental Sciences have agreed to cost share this proposal (50%) to provide a competitive salary for a qualified technical person. This proposal represents Phase I of the technical support position at Stanford.

Chamberlain斯坦福大学和美国地质调查局共同经营一个位于斯坦福大学的离子微探针实验室。该设施是地球科学界在地质年代学方面的一个关键组成部分，因为它具有以高空间分辨率确定放射性年龄的独特能力。 在实验室进行了锆石、独居石和辉石的常规U-Th-Pb和U-Th年代学研究。我们将继续努力满足斯坦福大学、美国地质勘探局和外部研究界对离子探针地质年代学日益增长的需求。为了满足我们部门内的用户需求和访问NSF资助的用户，我们将使用这笔NSF赠款的资金为博士提供三年50%的工资支持。水平的研究科学家。地球科学学院和地质与环境科学系已同意分担这一提议的费用（50%），为合格的技术人员提供有竞争力的工资。本建议书代表了斯坦福大学技术支持职位的第一阶段。
