Santa Fe Conference on Rock Magnetism

该奖项将部分支持于2019年6月6日至9日在新墨西哥州圣达菲举行的岩石磁学及其应用会议，该会议将继续两年一次的系列会议。圣约翰?s学院将作为会场。该奖项将提供部分费用，特别是对学生和早期职业参与者。圣达菲会议系列的广泛目标是将该领域现在和未来的领导者聚集在一起，深入讨论岩石和矿物磁学的基本方面，以及在全球地球物理学、构造学、地外磁学和地表环境研究中的应用；这些讨论的目的是要比大型社会会议的形式更加深入、互动和持久。这项活动的更广泛影响包括：(1)跨学科和跨学科的交流，以促进涉及铁矿物及其作为古磁场记录和古环境条件和地球过程指标的地球科学问题的新方法；(2)为青年科学家的发展提供机会，与国际领先的研究人员会面和互动，获得更深入的理解和更广阔的视角，为未来的跨学科合作奠定基础。2019年会议的一个明确目标是探索地磁场的短期（十年至千年）变化，它们在自然和考古材料中的记录，以及它们对地球上10Be和14C等放射性核素产生的影响。年代的气氛。全体会议发言人包括一位宇宙核素领域的权威专家。另一个关键目标是通过磁显微镜和数值微磁建模的新方法来检验对非均匀磁化颗粒中稳定剩余物的新理解。会议包括一个全天的研讨会，内容是使用MERRILL软件对磁性微结构进行建模，包括主题演讲、由顶尖专家对最新技术的讨论，以及教授研讨会参与者如何在自己的研究中应用高级建模的实践练习。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

This award is for partial support to hold a Conference on Rock Magnetism and its Applications, June 6-9, 2019 in Santa Fe NM, continuing a biennial series of such conferences. St. John?s College will serve as the venue. The award will provide partial coverage of expenses, particularly for students and early career participants. The broad goal of the Santa Fe Conference series is to bring together present and future leaders in the field for in-depth discussion of fundamental aspects of rock and mineral magnetism, and applications in global geophysics, tectonics, extraterrestrial magnetism, and surficial environmental studies; these discussions are intended to be more intensive, interactive and sustained than is possible under the format of large society meetings. Broader impacts of this activity include: (1) transdisciplinary and interdisciplinary communication to foster new approaches to geoscience problems involving iron minerals and their use as paleomagnetic field recorders and as indicators of paleoenvironmental conditions and Earth processes; and (2) the development of young scientists by providing the opportunity to meet and interact with leading international researchers, gain a deeper understanding and broader perspective, and form the basis for future cross-disciplinary collaborations.One explicit aim of the 2019 conference is to explore short-term (decadal to millennial) variations in the geomagnetic field, their records in natural and archeological materials, and their effects on the production of radionuclides such as 10Be and 14C in the Earth?s atmosphere. Plenary speakers include a leading expert in cosmogenic nuclides . Another key objective is to examine the new understanding of stable remanence in nonuniformly magnetized grains that is being achieved through novel approaches to magnetic microscopy and numerical micromagnetic modeling. The meeting includes a full-day workshop on modeling of magnetic microstructures using the MERRILL software, including a keynote presentation, discussion of the state-of-the-art by leading experts, and hands-on exercises that will teach workshop participants how to apply advanced modeling in their own research.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
