This US-Latin America award will support a workshop that will promote international scientific collaboration for seismological research and hazard mitigation between the Middle America region and the US. The workshop will be held in October 2010 in San Jose, Costa Rica and will be co-funded by the Division of Earth Sciences and the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID). The meeting will focus on: (a) scientific issues that derive from the unique tectonic environment of the region, (b) strengthening the regional infrastructure and academic community for seismological research, and (c) generating products with immediate regional societal benefits. Participants will include researchers from universities and geophysical observatory networks, students, national policy experts, and emergency planners from the US, Central America, Mexico, and the Caribbean. The workshop will be organized by Dr. Ray Willemann from Incorporated Research Institutions for Seismology (IRIS) in collaboration with Drs. Marino Protti, Richard Robertson, and Gerardo Suarez from the Universidad Nacional in Costa Rica, the University of the West Indies in Trinidad and Tobago, and the Universidad Nacional Autónoma in Mexico, respectively.The activity will bring together a diverse community of researchers, graduate students, practioners, and policy makers from the United States and Latin America. Outcomes from the workshop will lead to new insights regarding developing hazard mitigation systems, seismograph networks, and data sharing mechanisms in the region. Additionally, new interdisciplinary projects of interest to NSF, USAID, and the participating countries are expected outcome of this workshop.

这个美国-拉丁美洲奖将支持一个研讨会，该研讨会将促进中美洲地区和美国之间在地震研究和减灾方面的国际科学合作。 研讨会将于2010年10月在哥斯达黎加的圣何塞举行，由地球科学司和美国国际开发署（USAID）共同资助。 会议将重点讨论：（a）源于该地区独特构造环境的科学问题，（B）加强地震研究的区域基础设施和学术界，以及（c）产生具有直接区域社会效益的产品。 与会者将包括来自美国、中美洲、墨西哥和加勒比地区的大学和地球物理观测网络的研究人员、学生、国家政策专家和应急规划人员。 研讨会将由地震学联合研究所（IRIS）的Ray Willemann博士与哥斯达黎加国立大学、特立尼达和托巴哥西印度群岛大学以及墨西哥国立自治大学的Marino Protti博士、Richard Robertson博士和Gerardo苏亚雷斯博士合作组织。来自美国和拉丁美洲的从业者和政策制定者。 讲习班的成果将使人们对在该区域发展减灾系统、地震仪网络和数据共享机制有新的认识。 此外，国家科学基金会、美国国际开发署和参与国感兴趣的新的跨学科项目也是这次研讨会的预期成果。
