This proposal requests funds to help support travel and meeting costs for students and early career scientists at U.S. institutions to the 28th International Conference on Mathematical Geophysics ?Modelling Earth Dynamics: Complexity, Uncertainty and Validation? to be held in June 7-11, 2010 in Pisa, Italy. The conference website is http://cmg2010.pi.ingv.it/index.html. This conference brings together Earth scientists from across the disciplines with physicists, applied mathematicians, and computational scientists to discuss advances in mathematical and computational techniques for understanding properties and processes in the Earth. This year?s meeting emphasizes aspects of the mathematical modeling of the Earth dynamics, with particular enphasis on the use and effectiveness of models in predicting environmental phenomena. This meeting provides a single multi-disciplinary forum for the exchange of ideas and techniques across the disciplinary boundaries in the Earth Sciences. Funds are requested to support travel and lodging costs for 9 students, post-docs, and early career scientists which is approximately one third of the number attending past meetings. This meting is highly interdisciplinary and international in nature and provides an important opportunity for U.S. students and early career scientists from across the earth sciences and applied mathematics to interact with senior scientists in a small informal setting. We will directly contact faculty members in Geophysics in universities and colleges that have a large number of students from under-represented groups, to encourage their students and collegues to apply for a travel and lodging grant to attend the conference. This year there will also be an increased emphasis on the use and effectiveness of mathematical models in predicting environmental phenomena. This topic is of great interest not only to the scientific community but to the whole humanity, as the outcome of Earth models impacts the decisions of governments regarding the human induced changes on landscapes and climate.

该提案要求提供资金来帮助支持美国机构的学生和早期职业科学家参加第28届国际数学地球物理会议的差旅和会议费用。地球动力学建模：复杂性、不确定性和验证？将于2010年6月7日至11日在意大利的比萨举行。会议网址是http://cmg2010.pi.ingv.it/index.html。 本次会议汇集了来自各个学科的地球科学家与物理学家，应用数学家和计算科学家，讨论数学和计算技术的进步，以了解地球的性质和过程。今年？会议强调地球动力学数学模型的各个方面，特别强调模型在预测环境现象中的使用和有效性。这次会议提供了一个单一的多学科论坛，为地球科学跨学科界限的思想和技术交流。要求提供资金，以支持9名学生、博士后和早期职业科学家的差旅费和住宿费，这大约是出席过去会议人数的三分之一。 这次会议是高度跨学科和国际性的，为美国学生和来自地球科学和应用数学的早期职业科学家提供了一个重要的机会，让他们在一个小型的非正式环境中与高级科学家互动。我们将直接联系大学和学院的地球物理学教师，这些大学和学院有大量来自代表性不足群体的学生，鼓励他们的学生和同事申请旅行和住宿补助金参加会议。今年还将更加重视数学模型在预测环境现象方面的使用和有效性。这一主题不仅对科学界，而且对整个人类都具有极大的兴趣，因为地球模型的结果会影响政府关于人类引起的景观和气候变化的决定。
