This award will provide partial funding for a workshop focus on the interdisciplinary study of tephra to be held at Portland State University in Portland, Oregon on August 4-7, 2014. The discussions at this workshop will have implications for the understanding of geologic hazards, climate change and human origins. The goal is to bring different communities that use tephra in their research to learn from each other's practices and scientific interests. The participants will include volcanologists, tephrochronologists, and archeologists, geochronologists, paleoclimatologists, paleoecologists, paleolimnologists, glaciologists, petrologists, atmospheric scientists, Quaternary scientists, data managers, statisticians, among others. The three objectives of the workshop will include: 1) to discuss modern techniques used in volcanic stratigraphy and sedimentology; 2) to discuss modern advances in tephrochronology; and 3) to begin to develop a model of atmospheric transport and terrestrial, glacial, and submarine distribution of tephra. Materials related to presentations (abstracts and videos) will be made available via the open-access forum Vhub.org. Participants at this workshop will include scientists at different stages of professional careers from different countries, and will be recruited via announcements in listservs for the different scientific communities and invitations to some scientists. One of the outcomes of this workshop will be a resource book for tephra studies. The workshop will start with a field trip to Mount St. Helens, followed up by presentations, group discussions, and hands-on training sessions.

该奖项将为2014年8月4日至7日在俄勒冈州波特兰市的波特兰州立大学举行的以麻黄跨学科研究为重点的研讨会提供部分资金。本次研讨会的讨论将对了解地质灾害、气候变化和人类起源产生影响。其目标是使在研究中使用麻风的不同社区相互学习彼此的实践和科学兴趣。与会者将包括火山学家、温度年代学家、考古学家、地质年代学家、古气候学家、古生态学家、古湖泊学家、冰川学家、岩石学家、大气科学家、第四纪科学家、数据管理人员、统计学家等。研讨会的三个目标包括：1)讨论火山地层学和沉积学的现代技术；2)讨论现代温度年代学的进展；3)开始建立一个大气输送和陆地、冰川和海底温度分布的模型。与演讲相关的材料（摘要和视频）将通过开放获取论坛Vhub.org提供。本次研讨会的参与者将包括来自不同国家的处于不同职业生涯阶段的科学家，并将通过在不同科学界的列表服务器上的公告和对一些科学家的邀请来招募他们。本次研讨会的成果之一将是一本关于破伤风研究的参考书。研讨会将以圣海伦斯山实地考察开始，随后是演讲、小组讨论和实践培训课程。
