0743933GhiorsoThis award provides funding to improve the Library of Experimental Phase Relations (LEPR) and to develop a mechanism for interoperability of LEPR with the EarthChem database. LEPR is a relational database of compositional and ancillary data from almost 7,000 magmatic phase equilibrium experiments. The EarthChem data base contains composition, geographic distribution and other data on over 230,000 naturally occurring igneous rocks. The goals of the project are: 1) to streamline and partially automate the process of data entry to LEPR in order to facilitate updates and to enable potential contributors in the community of experimentalists to archive their published and unpublished data, 2) to improve query capabilities, incorporate modeling tools for analysis of data subsets, and develop practical examples of manipulating data in LEPR in order to motivate use of the database for research and for pedagogical purposes, and 3) to develop a process that will allow users to cross correlate data between LEPR and the EarthChem igneous rock databse.The enhancements to LEPR and the establishment of LEPR-EarthChem interoperability will enable a wider community of scientists to make use of these databases for research and for teaching. Students will have access to real-world data for projects without the hassle of having to gather data from a number of disparate sources. Most importantly, an enhanced LEPR and the LEPR-EarthChem connection will create a data-mining environment that promotes synthesis and model development from diverse data sources.

该奖项提供资金用于改进实验相关系库（LEPR），并开发LEPR与EarthChem数据库的互操作性机制。LEPR是一个包含近7000次岩浆相平衡实验的成分和辅助数据的关系型数据库。EarthChem数据库包含超过230,000块天然火成岩的成分、地理分布和其他数据。该项目的目标是：1)简化和部分自动化数据输入到LEPR的过程，以促进更新，并使实验社区的潜在贡献者能够存档他们已发布和未发布的数据；2)提高查询能力，结合建模工具来分析数据子集，并开发在LEPR中操作数据的实际示例，以激励数据库用于研究和教学目的；3)开发一个过程，允许用户在LEPR和EarthChem火成岩数据库之间交叉关联数据。LEPR的增强和LEPR- earthchem互操作性的建立将使更广泛的科学家社区能够利用这些数据库进行研究和教学。学生将可以访问真实世界的数据，而不必从许多不同的来源收集数据。最重要的是，增强的LEPR和LEPR- earthchem连接将创建一个数据挖掘环境，促进来自不同数据源的综合和模型开发。
