This award provides partial support for the 21st International Workshop on Electromagnetic (EM) Induction in the Earth. This workshop is sponsored every two years by the International Association of Geomagnetism and Aeronomy (IAGA) and the International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics (IUGG) and is the primary forum for earth scientists in the world to share their EM research and plan international cooperative experiments. The workshop will be held in Darwin, Australia in July, 2012 and will be hosted by the Australian Society of Exploration Geophysics.EM measurements provide a unique view of the Earth because of the sensitivity of electrical conductivity to temperature, fluids, ore minerals, and lithologic variations. This sensitivity is important in monitoring environmental problems, exploring for energy and mineral occurrences, studying the interior structure of the Earth and other planets, and investigating regions of potential natural and man-made hazards (e.g., seismic, volcanic, unexploded ordinance).Support is being provided by the PI?s Australian colleagues from Australian organizations and international companies to help defray costs of the convention center rental, publication and publicity expenses, materials for participants, local transportation, and audiovisual equipment. The largest portion of the NSF funds will support travel for students and young scientists. There will also be support for a few senior scientists from developing countries.

该奖项为第21届地球电磁感应国际研讨会提供部分支持。 该研讨会每两年由国际地磁学和高层大气物理学协会（IAGA）和国际大地测量与地球物理学联合会（IUGG）主办，是世界地球科学家分享他们的EM研究和计划国际合作实验的主要论坛。 研讨会将于2012年7月在澳大利亚达尔文举行，由澳大利亚勘探地球物理学会主办。由于电导率对温度、流体、矿石矿物和岩性变化的敏感性，EM测量提供了地球的独特视角。 这种灵敏度在监测环境问题、探索能源和矿产、研究地球和其他行星的内部结构以及调查潜在的自然和人为危险区域（例如，地震、火山、未爆炸弹药）。PI提供支持吗？澳大利亚的同事们从澳大利亚的组织和国际公司，以帮助支付费用的会议中心租金，出版和宣传费用，材料的与会者，当地交通，和视听设备。 NSF的大部分资金将用于资助学生和年轻科学家的旅行。 还将为发展中国家的一些资深科学家提供支助。
