Travel Funds for Workshop on the Decade Volcano of Santa Maria, Guatemala; November 1993

9314794 ROSE这个美洲项目奖将支持一群美国和拉丁美洲的科学家和研究生参加关于危地马拉圣玛丽亚火山的国际研讨会。该研讨会由密歇根理工大学的William I.Rose博士组织，将于1993年11月举行，并将启动一系列合作研究调查，包括火山灾害实地研讨会和危机模拟。1902年，圣玛丽亚火山是历史上最大的喷发之一。通过它的一个喷口，火山自1922年以来一直是活跃的，因此它被认为是喷发期间直接观察和测量的绝佳地点。这座火山被国际火山学和地球内部化学协会(IAVCEI)指定为十年火山，作为国际减灾十年的一部分。这座火山的活动产生了许多潜在的研究课题，将吸引来自世界各地的科学家在这个地点工作。***

9314794 Rose This Americas Program award will support attendance of a group of U.S. and Latin American scientists and graduate students to an international workshop on the Santa Maria Volcano, Guatemala. The workshop, organized by Dr. William I. Rose, Michigan Technological University, will be held in November, 1993 and will initiate a series of collaborative research investigations, including volcanic hazard field workshops and crisis simulations. In 1902 the Santa Maria Volcano was the site of one of the largest eruptions in historic times. Through one of its vents, the volcano has been consistently active since 1922, thus it is regarded as an excellent site for direct observations and measurements during eruptions. This volcano has been designated a Decade Volcano by the International Association of Volcanology and Chemistry of the Earth's Interior (IAVCEI) as part of the International Decade for Natural Disaster Reduction. The many potential research topics arising from the activity of this volcano will serve to attract scientists from all over the world to work at this site. ***
