Workshop: MYRES V - The Sedimentary Record of Landscape Dynamicsby Elizabeth Hajek, EAR-1234050, PennState Univ. ABSTRACTSedimentary deposits comprise important records of information necessary to 1) quantitatively reconstruct and predict landscape dynamics across a range of timescales, 2) identify ancient tectonic and climatic conditions on Earth, and 3) understand landscape response to tectonic and climatic forcing. An outstanding challenge for geoscientists is to decode this archive in order to understand the evolution of Earth's environments over a range of temporal and spatial scales. To this end, the research interests of geomorphologists, sedimentologists, and stratigraphers have started to converge on processes that produce, transport, and deposit sediment over millennial timescales and beyond. Virtual Workshop and the final two days will revolve around discussion-stimulating field trips through erosional landscapes and stratigraphic deposits in Central Utah. This will be the fifth biennial Meeting of Young Researchers in Earth Science (MYRES) meeting. Early-career faculty and research scientists who participated in previous MYRES workshops have become leaders in their fields and helped build foundations for ongoing interdisciplinary collaborations. Continued support of MYRES will sustain and strengthen this grassroots initiative that has helped jumpstart research in important cutting-edge areas of Earth science. As part of interdisciplinary community building and communication during MYRES V, time will be dedicated to learning about the NSF's EarthCube initiative and discussing how collaborative efforts between geodynamicists, geomorphologists, sedimentologists and stratigraphers (and others) could be aided by EarthCube. To this end, plenary discussion on the third day of the workshop will comprise a virtual workshop about EarthCube. This workshop will be hosted online (e.g., via Skype), will include EarthCube representatives, and, if possible, other interested virtual attendees. Throughout the MYRES V workshop we will be discussing many topics listed in the EarthCube GEO Domain Virtual Workshop Goals, including 1) science drivers within and beyond MYRES V fields in the immediate future and up to 15 years out, 2) current challenges and limitations to interdisciplinary science (including data discovery, modeling, integrating disparate data types and sources, etc.), 3) existing database and modeling resources, and 4) tools, databases, and modeling capabilities that MYRES V communities would like to see developed.

MYRES V—景观动力学的沉积记录（作者：Elizabeth Hajek， earr -1234050，宾夕法尼亚大学）摘要沉积沉积物包含了重要的信息记录，这些信息记录对于1)定量重建和预测一系列时间尺度上的景观动力学，2)识别地球上的古代构造和气候条件，以及3)理解景观对构造和气候强迫的响应是必要的。地球科学家面临的一个突出挑战是解码这些档案，以便了解地球环境在时间和空间尺度上的演变。为此，地貌学家、沉积学家和地层学家的研究兴趣已经开始集中在千年或更长时间尺度上产生、运输和沉积沉积物的过程上。虚拟研讨会和最后两天将围绕着激发讨论的实地考察，考察犹他州中部的侵蚀景观和地层沉积。这将是第五届两年一次的地球科学青年研究人员会议（MYRES）。参加过以往MYRES研讨会的早期职业教师和研究科学家已成为各自领域的领导者，并为正在进行的跨学科合作奠定了基础。对MYRES的持续支持将维持和加强这一基层倡议，它帮助启动了地球科学重要前沿领域的研究。作为MYRES V期间跨学科社区建设和交流的一部分，时间将专门用于了解NSF的EarthCube计划，并讨论地球动力学家、地貌学家、沉积学家和地层学家（以及其他人）之间的合作努力如何能得到EarthCube的帮助。为此，研讨会第三天的全体讨论将包括一个关于EarthCube的虚拟研讨会。本次研讨会将在线举办（例如，通过Skype），将包括EarthCube代表，如果可能的话，还有其他感兴趣的虚拟与会者。在整个MYRES V研讨会中，我们将讨论EarthCube GEO域虚拟研讨会目标中列出的许多主题，包括1)近期和15年后MYRES V领域内外的科学驱动因素，2)跨学科科学的当前挑战和限制（包括数据发现，建模，集成不同的数据类型和来源等），3)现有数据库和建模资源，以及4)工具，数据库。以及MYRES V社区希望看到的建模能力。
