This Pan-American Advanced Studies Institutes (PASI) award, jointly supported by the NSF and the Department of Energy (DOE), will take place in July 2013 in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. The organizing committee for this PASI includes the Principal Investigator, David W. Simpson (Incorporated Research Institutions in Seismology IRIS), as well as Jay Pulliam (Baylor University, USA), John Louie (University of Nevada, Reno, USA), Olga Cabello (IRIS), Morgan Moschetti (U.S. Geological Survey), Michael Schmitz (FUNVISIS, Venezuela), Lyndon Brown (University of the West Indies, Mona,Jamaica), Carlos Valdes Gonzalez (Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico), Walter Salazer (University of the West Indies, St. Augustine, Trinidad and Tobago), Eugenio Polanco (Universidad Autonoma de Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic), Marino Protti (Universidad Nacional de Costa Rica), Victor Huerfano (University of Puerto Rico, Mayaguez, Puerto Rico, USA), and Mauricio Mora (Universidad de Costa Rica).The institute will address modern strategies for earthquake hazard analysis with a focus on techniques for seismic site characterization, which is a critical component of lessening earthquake hazards. The basic methodology is comprised of source modeling, wave propagation, and local site characterization, which consists of measuring the local geological and geotechnical factors that potentially affect earthquake shaking at a particular site. This PASI will discuss all three components of earthquake hazard analysis but will focus on site characterization because it has been undergoing rapid development in response to new technologies and new datasets. The institute offers an opportunity to spread awareness of the new techniques to researchers and practitioners in Middle America. A small field experiment, will serve as an evaluation of a subset of techniques, and demonstrate practical data acquisition, field logistics, and analysis strategies. Simple and effective seismic site characterization is a vital component of hazard mitigation in earthquake prone areas throughout the developing world. This PASI will disseminate knowledge of earthquake hazard analysis strategies to a group of junior seismologists, which they can put to use immediately in their own countries. By so doing, it will also help to promote international research collaborations. All data acquired during the PASI will be contributed to the NSF-supported IRIS Data Management Center in Seattle, WA.

这项由美国国家科学基金会和能源部（DOE）共同支持的泛美高级研究机构（PASI）奖将于2013年7月在多米尼加共和国圣多明各举行。 这次PASI的组织委员会包括首席研究员大卫W。辛普森（地震学IRIS研究机构）以及Jay Pulliam（美国贝勒大学），约翰·路易（美国里诺，内华达州大学），Olga Cabello（IRIS），Morgan Moschetti（美国地质调查局），迈克尔·施密茨（FUNVISIS，委内瑞拉），林登·布朗（西印度群岛大学，牙买加莫纳），卡洛斯巴尔德斯冈萨雷斯（墨西哥国立自治大学），Walter Salazer（特立尼达和托巴哥圣奥古斯丁西印度群岛大学），Eugenio Polanco（多米尼加共和国圣多明各自治大学），马里诺·普罗蒂（哥斯达黎加国立大学），维克托·韦尔法诺（美国波多黎各马亚圭斯波多黎各大学），还有毛里西奥莫拉（哥斯达黎加大学）该研究所将研究地震危险分析的现代战略，重点是地震场地特征鉴定技术，这是减轻地震灾害的关键组成部分。 基本方法包括震源建模、波传播和当地场地表征，其中包括测量可能影响特定场地地震震动的当地地质和岩土因素。 本PASI将讨论地震危险性分析的所有三个组成部分，但将侧重于场地特征，因为它一直在快速发展，以应对新技术和新数据集。 该研究所提供了一个机会，以传播新技术的认识，在美国中部的研究人员和从业者。 一个小型的现场实验，将作为一个子集的技术评估，并展示实用的数据采集，现场物流和分析策略。 简单而有效的地震场地定性是整个发展中世界地震多发地区减灾的重要组成部分。 该PASI将向一批初级地震学家传播地震危险分析战略的知识，他们可以立即在自己的国家使用这些知识。 通过这样做，它还将有助于促进国际研究合作。 在PASI期间获得的所有数据将贡献给位于华盛顿州西雅图的NSF支持的IRIS数据管理中心。
