This project will help fund participation of junior scientists and early career faculty in the 10th International Workshop on Modeling of Mantle Convection and Lithospheric Dynamics. This 5-day workshop will be held September 2-6, 2007 in Carry-le-Rouet, just west of Marseille. The topics of discussion include (1) current understanding of mantle convection and lithospheric dynamics and (2) the state-of-the-art modeling approaches in research. Geodynamical research addresses fundamental questions concerning the evolution of Earth and other terrestrial planets and is central in our understanding of plate tectonics and the geologic evolution of Earth's landscape. While research is often specialized, it is important that geoscientists from all sub-disciplines meet regularly to share and explain results, to discuss scientific hypotheses, and to plan new research strategies. The graduate students and post-docs from US based universities will listen to lectures from some of the world experts in the fields, get hands-on technical training in the application of cutting-edge modeling techniques, and they get the opportunity to present their research using posters that will be on display throughout the meeting.

该项目将资助年轻科学家和早期职业教师参加第十届地幔对流和岩石圈动力学建模国际研讨会。这个为期5天的研讨会将于2007年9月2日至6日在马赛以西的卡里勒鲁埃举行。讨论的主题包括（1）目前对地幔对流和岩石圈动力学的理解和（2）最先进的模拟方法的研究。地球动力学研究解决有关地球和其他类地行星演化的基本问题，是我们理解板块构造和地球景观地质演化的核心。虽然研究往往是专门的，但重要的是，来自所有子学科的地球科学家定期聚会，分享和解释结果，讨论科学假设，并计划新的研究战略。来自美国大学的研究生和博士后将听取该领域一些世界专家的讲座，获得尖端建模技术应用的实践技术培训，他们有机会使用将在整个会议期间展出的海报展示他们的研究。
