REU Site: Summer of Applied Geophysical Experience (SAGE)

9500021 Jiracek，应用地球物理经验之夏(SAGE)，加上这个REU计划，将现代地球物理方法集中在一个主要的地质问题上。本科生首先在夏季花四周的时间，使用地震反射和折射、重力、磁学、电阻率、电磁学和大地电磁对格兰德裂谷的结构和构造进行实践研究。在田野部分之后，大多数REU学生在下一学年继续在自己的校园或为期一周的研讨会上进行研究。学生参与实地考察计划的每个阶段，他们处理和解释数据，并以口头和书面形式展示结果。SAGE模式在教师和学生之间提供了极其密切的互动，因为所有人都住在一起。SAGE由洛斯阿拉莫斯国家实验室和5所学校赞助，他们提供教员和设备。其他设备、工作站和扬声器由Sage Industrial附属公司提供，其中包括主要的能源公司、承包商和计算机制造商。该奖项支持15名本科生，他们加入了同等数量的研究生。

9500021 Jiracek The Summer of Applied Geophysical Experience (SAGE) supplemented by this REU program focuses modern geophysical methods on a major geologic problem. Undergraduates first spend four summer weeks doing hands-on research into the structure and tectonics of the Rio Grande rift using seismic reflection and refraction, gravity, magnetics, electrical resistivity, electromagnetics, and magnetotellurics. Follow the fields segment, most REU students continue their research at their home campus or at one-week workshops held during the following academic year. Students participate in every phase of the field program; they process and interpret data and present results in both oral and written form. The SAGE format provides extremely close interaction between faculty and students, as all reside together. SAGE is sponsored by Los Alamos National Laboratory and 5 schools, who furnish both faculty and equipment. Additional equipment, workstations, and speakers are provided by SAGE Industrial Affiliates, which includes major energy companies, contractors, and computer manufacturers. The award supports 15 undergraduates, who join an equal number of graduate students.
