Advances in Seismology and Implications for Interdisciplinary Research Adam M. Dziewonski Symposium

该奖项为一个以地震学最新进展及其对跨学科研究的影响为重点的研讨会提供支持。研讨会的目的是聚集来自广泛学科的地球科学家，深入讨论地震学的现状以及它如何有助于从总体上理解地球过程。近年来，通过新的理论、技术和高质量数据的可获得性，地震学领域取得了重大进展。地震学的这些进展与地球科学其他领域的进展相辅相成，来自不同学科的新成果正开始缩小领域之间的差距。这种融合使对地震学结果的广泛解释得以回答重要的跨学科问题，如地幔内的温度和成分不均一性。研讨会旨在包括来自广泛学科(地震学、地球动力学、矿物物理、大地测量学和地球化学)的演讲者，并留出大量时间进行讨论。口头会议将与海报会议相辅相成，这将促进与会者的进一步互动和未来合作的进一步机会。预算包括20名职业早期科学家的参与费用，其中包括研究生和博士后。这次研讨会将是他们进行教育和研究的绝佳机会。整个研讨会将被录像和拍照，并通过研讨会网页进行更广泛的分发。研讨会将向从哈佛大学退休的亚当？S教授致敬。在研讨会上讨论的许多议题中，S的研究一直是基础，因此，将会议献给他的退休是合适的。

This award provides support for a symposium focused on recent advances in seismology and their implications for interdisciplinary research. The aim of the symposium is to bring together Earth scientists from a broad range of disciplines for an in-depth discussion of the current state of seismology and how it can contribute to the understanding of Earth processes in general.Significant progress has been made in the field of seismology in recent years through new theory, techniques, and availability of high-quality data. These advances in seismology complement progress in other fields of Earth Sciences, and new results from different disciplines are beginning to close the gap between fields. This convergence is allowing broad interpretation of seismological results to answer important interdisciplinary questions such as temperature and compositional heterogeneities within the mantle.The symposium is designed to include speakers from a wide range of disciplines (seismology, geodynamics, mineral physics, geodesy, and geochemistry) with substantial time set aside for discussion. The oral sessions will be complemented by poster sessions which will facilitate further interaction of participants and further opportunities for future collaborations.The budget includes cost of participation of 20 early-career scientists including graduate students and postdocs. This symposium will be an excellent opportunity for their education and research. The entire symposium will be videotaped and photographed for broader distribution through the symposium webpage.The symposium will honor Prof. Adam Dziewonski?s retirement from Harvard University. Adam Dziewonski?s research has been fundamental in many of the subjects discussed at the symposium, making it appropriate to dedicate the meeting in honor of his retirement.
