COMPRES is a community-based consortium that supports research in the materials properties of Earth and planetary interiors with particular emphasis on high-pressure science and technology and related fields. It is charged with the oversight and guidance of important high-pressure laboratories at several national facilities, such as synchrotrons and neutron sources. These have become vital tools in Earth science research. It facilitates the operation of beam lines, the development of new technologies for high-pressure research, and advocates for science and educational programs to the various funding agencies.

COMPRES是一个以社区为基础的联合体，支持对地球和行星内部材料特性的研究，特别强调高压科学和技术及相关领域。它负责监督和指导几个国家设施的重要高压实验室，如同步加速器和中子源。这些已经成为地球科学研究的重要工具。它促进光束线的操作，高压研究新技术的开发，并向各种资助机构倡导科学和教育计划。
