This project provides funding for international travel support to approximately 4 early-career professionals and 8 students to attend the international conference "Fragile Earth: Geological Processes from Global to Local Scales, Associated Hazards & Resources" that will be held in Munich, Germany, from September, 4-7, 2011. Major topics addressed at this conference are: (1) subduction zone processes at global, regional, and local scales; (2) intraplate earthquakes, natural hazards and risks; (3) geological resources and sedimentary geodynamic processes; and (4) geoeducation in highschools, universities and public outreach through geoparks and geoheritage.This international conference addresses many current and central research topics in tectonics and related fields, including sessions devoted to the recent Tohoku earthquake. The conference affords international participants the opportunity to share recent research results and initiate new international research partnerships. Conveners will make efforts to broaden participation through support students and early career researchers from underrepresented groups in the earth sciences.

该项目为大约4名职业生涯初期的专业人员和8名学生提供国际旅行资助，以参加将于2011年9月4日至7日在德国慕尼黑举行的国际会议“脆弱的地球：从全球到地方规模的地质过程，相关的灾害资源”。本次会议讨论的主要议题是：（1）全球、区域和局部尺度的俯冲带过程;（2）板内地震、自然灾害和风险;（3）地质资源和沉积地球动力学过程;（4）地球动力学过程。（4）中学地理教育，这次国际会议讨论了许多当前和中心的研究课题，在地质构造和相关的包括专门讨论最近东北地震的会议。会议为国际参与者提供了分享最新研究成果和建立新的国际研究伙伴关系的机会。召集人将努力通过支持来自地球科学领域代表性不足群体的学生和早期职业研究人员来扩大参与。
