Participant costs for the 10th Symposium of SEDI

我们请求将这笔资金用于第十届地球深部研究研讨会(SEDI)的参会费用。会议将于2006年7月9日至14日在捷克共和国布拉格举行。Intelligence Merit Sedi是一个致力于地球深部研究的国际科学组织。SEDI的最终目标是增强对地球内部过去的演化和当前的热、动力和化学状态的了解，以及对地球内部对地球表面观察到的结构和过程的影响的了解。深部通常被认为是核心和下地幔，但人们的兴趣可能延伸到表面，例如，在研究地幔热柱或下降的岩石圈板块的动力学方面。SEDI感兴趣的科学问题和问题包括地磁发电机和长期变化，古地磁和地球深部的演化，外核的组成，结构和动力学，发电机能量学，内核的结构，核冷却和核幔边界区域，核-地幔边界形状，耦合和地球自转，下地幔：结构，惯例和羽流，深层地球化学储集层的性质和位置，等等。国际格式是对苹果酒等美国国家团体努力的补充，对于那些由NSF CSEDI计划资助或寻求资金的人来说，将非常有用。SEDI的结构本质上是跨学科的，为在一系列主题上进行内部和国际合作提供了许多机会，这些主题有助于我们对地球深处和其他行星内部的了解。

AbstractWe request that will be used to contribute to participate costs for the 10th symposium on Study of Earths Deep Interior (SEDI). The meeting will be held in Prague, Czech Republic from July 9-14, 2006.Intellectual Merit SEDI is an international scientific organization dedicated to the Study of the Earths Deep Interior. The ultimate goal SEDI is an enhanced understanding of the past evolution and current thermal, dynamical, and chemical state of the Earths deep interior and of the effect that the interior has on the structures and processes observed at the surface of the Earth. The deep interior is generally considered to be the core and lower mantle, but interest may extend to the surface, for example, in the study if mantle plumes or dynamics of descending lithospheric slabs. The scientific questions and problems of interest to SEDI include the geomagnetic dynamo and secular variation, paleomagnetism and the evolution of the Earths deep interior, composition, structure and dynamics of the outer core, dynamo energetics, structure of the inner core, core cooling and the core-mantle boundary region, core-mantle boundary shape, coupling and the rotation of the Earth, lower mantle: structure, convention and plumes, nature and location of deep geochemical reservoirs, etc.Broader Impact this proposal will contribute to interdisciplinary education of US graduate students and young researchers by fostering dialog with researchers at all levels at a relatively small workshop style meeting. The international format complements efforts by US national groups such as CIDER and will be very useful to those funded under or seeking funding from the NSF CSEDI program. The structure of SEDI is intrinsically interdisciplinary, providing many opportunities for intra-and international collaborations on a range of topics that our understanding of the deep earth and other planetary interiors.
