A Computer System for Field Processing and Advanced Labora- tory Analysis of Seismic Reflection Data

该奖项提供了部分资金用于收购一个 便携式计算机工作站系统，将用于 野外采集地震资料质量控制 在实验室中进行实验和数据解释。的 系统将由地震学研究所操作和维护 地质和地球物理系的一个小组， 怀俄明州大学。大学致力于提供 系统购置成本的46%。 新设备将支持反射地震学 怀俄明州的一个项目，包括两名教授，两名博士后， 博士研究助理和十几个研究生 学生他们的研究项目旨在解释亚- 长谷破火山口复合体的地表地质结构， 内华达州盆地和山脉，怀俄明州的前寒武纪缝合线，以及 明尼苏达州和格陵兰岛西部的古代（太古代）地壳。

This award provides partial funding for the acquisition of a portable computer workstation system that will be used for quality control of seismic data being gathered in field experiments and for data interpretation in the laboratory. The system will be operated and maintained by the seismology research group in the Department of Geology and Geophysics at the University of Wyoming. The University is committed to supplying 46% of the acquisition costs of the system. The new equipment will support the reflection seismology program at Wyoming which includes two professors, two post- doctoral research associates and more than a dozen graduate students. Their research program is designed to interpret sub- surface geologic structures in the Long Valley caldera complex, the Nevada Basin and Range, pre-Cambrian sutures in Wyoming, and the ancient (Archean) crust in Minnesota and western Greenland.
