Upgrading the seismology/geodynamic computational facilitiesat Yale

该奖项提供了所需资金的一半， 购置一个计算机系统， 耶鲁大学地质与地球物理系， 主要由地震学和地球动力学系及其 学生耶鲁大学致力于提供剩余的 一半的资金。 该系统增加的计算能力将应用于 地幔流变学，地核对流 地震各向异性模拟，地球自由振荡，全球 大规模地震层析成像和其他计算密集型地球物理 研究项目。

This award provides one-half the funding required for the acquisition of a computer system that will installed in the Department of Geology and Geophysics at Yale University and used primarily by the seismology and geodynamics faculty and their students. Yale University is committed to providing the remaining half of the funding. The added computing power of the system will be applied to problems of mantle rheology, convection in the Earth's core, seismic anisotropy modeling, free oscillations of the Earth, global scale seismic tomography, and other computing-intensive geophysical research projects.
