Earth Sciences Postdoctoral Research Fellowship Award

研究员将研究北方的构造演化 东洪堡山脉，内华达州，通过整合的结果， 详细的现场，结构，热年代学， 温压研究，以约束构造历史， 大盆地最深处的岩石 比较和对比将作出的宏观结构， 显微构造、岩石学和晶体学组构数据 与德国东部的萨克森麻粒岩地形，通过使用 扫描电子显微镜、电子探针和X射线 在苏黎世的设施，在那里的研究员已选择花费他的 Eidgenossische地质研究所研究金 Technische Hochschule（ETH）.

The Fellow will study the tectonic evolution of the northern East Humboldt Range, Nevada, by integrating the results of detailed field, structural, thermochronologic, and thermobarometric studies to constrain the tectonic history of what are probably the deepest- seated rocks in the Great Basin. Comparisons and contrasts will be made of the macrostructural, micro-structural, petrological, and crystallographic fabric data with the Saxony granulite terrain in eastern Germany, by using scanning electron microscopy, electron microprobe, and x-ray facilities in Zurich, where the Fellow has chosen to spend his fellowship at the Geologisches Institut of the Eidgenossische Technische Hochschule (ETH).
