The project will provide funds to partially cover participant costs for the 13th Symposium on Study of Earth?s Deep Interior (SEDI). The meeting will be held in Leeds, United Kingdom from July 1-6, 2012. SEDI is an international scientific organization dedicated to the Study of the Earth's Deep Interior. The ultimate goal of SEDI is an enhanced understanding of the past evolution and current thermal, chemical and dynamical state of the Earth's deep interior and of the effect of that the interior has on structures and processes observed at the surface of the Earth. The 'deep interior' is generally considered to be the core and lower mantle, but interest often extends to the surface, for example, in the study of mantle plumes or dynamics of descending lithospheric slabs. The scientific questions and problems of interest to SEDI include the geomagnetic dynamo and secular variation, paleomagnetism and the evolution of the Earth's deep interior, material properties at extreme conditions, structure and dynamics of the core and mantle, core-mantle interactions, and the nature and location of deep geochemical reservoirs, etc.This proposal will contribute to interdisciplinary education of US graduate students and young researchers by fostering dialog with researchers at all levels at a relatively small workshop-style meeting. The international format complements efforts by US national groups such as CIDER and will be useful to those funded under or seeking funding from the NSF CSEDI program. The structure of SEDI is intrinsically interdisciplinary, providing many opportunities for intra- and international collaborations on a broad range of topics that contribute to our understanding of the deep earth and other planetary interiors.

该项目将提供资金部分支付第十三届地球研究研讨会的参加者费用。s Deep Interior （SEDI）。会议将于2012年7月1日至6日在英国利兹举行。SEDI是一个致力于研究地球深层内部的国际科学组织。SEDI的最终目标是增进对地球深层内部过去的演变和目前的热、化学和动力状态的了解，以及对在地球表面观测到的结构和过程的影响的了解。“深层内部”通常被认为是地核和下地幔，但人们的兴趣往往延伸到地表，例如，对地幔柱或岩石圈板块下降动力学的研究。SEDI关注的科学问题和问题包括地磁动力和长期变化、古地磁和地球深部内部演化、极端条件下的物质性质、地核和地幔的结构和动力学、地核-地幔相互作用、深部地球化学储层的性质和位置。该提案将通过在一个相对较小的研讨会形式的会议上促进与各级研究人员的对话，为美国研究生和年轻研究人员的跨学科教育做出贡献。国际形式补充了美国国家组织（如CIDER）的努力，并将对那些在NSF CSEDI项目下资助或寻求资助的人有用。SEDI的结构本质上是跨学科的，为广泛主题的内部和国际合作提供了许多机会，有助于我们了解地球深处和其他行星内部。
