Meeting of Young Researchers in Earth Sciences (MYRES II): Dynamics of the Lithosphere

该奖项将支持以岩石圈动力学为主题的地球科学青年研究人员会议(MYRES)。MARES的使命是聚集来自世界各地的初级科学家，代表多个地球科学分支在一个地点进行为期四天的正式和非正式交流想法、数据、方法，并制定长期项目和合作。会议在欧洲和美国轮流举行，以促进国际参与。这次会议将在意大利举行，由国家科学基金会和欧洲科学基金会共同主办。虽然会议专门面向年轻科学家，但对所有能够从该主题领域的教育和面向合作的重点中受益的科学家开放。会议议程将包括介绍岩石圈的化学和物理结构及其演化；审查地球内部的变形机制和过程；地震孕育和大地测量信号；最后讨论长期地球动力学。与概述讲座相辅相成的是分组讨论会议、动手培训会议和海报会议，旨在最大限度地在较小的小组中实现开放互动。岩石圈的研究本质上是跨学科的，将举行这次会议以改善这种跨学科的互动。Myres模式旨在通过提供复习讲座、实践教程和有重点的讨论小组来最大限度地学习和培训初级科学家。与会者和演讲者来自不同的科学专业、国家、民族和性别，反映了我们社区的多样性。迈尔斯还保持着永久的互联网存在，正在建设中，以提供关于地球科学的最新、公正的信息的新资源。该网站将向所有人开放，使这一项目的受益者扩大到每一位科学家和非科学家。这种开放的方法旨在提高公众对地球科学科学进程的认识和理解。

This award will support the Meeting of Young Researchers in Earth Sciences (MYRES) that focus on the topic: Dynamics of the Lithosphere. MYRES has the mission of gathering junior scientists from all over the world, representing many branches of geosciences in a single venue for four days to exchange formally and informally ideas, data, methods, and formulate long term projects and collaborations. The meetings are held alternatively in Europe and in the USA to facilitate international participation. This meeting will be held in Italy and it will be co-sponsored by the National Science Foundation and the European Science Foundation. While dedicated to young scientists, the meeting is open to all scientists that can benefit from the education and collaboration-oriented focus of the subject area. The meeting agenda will include an introduction to the chemical and physical structure of the lithosphere and its evolution; a review of deformation mechanisms processes in the interior of the Earth; earthquake generation and geodetic signals; and finally, a discussion of long-term geodynamics. Overview talks are complemented by breakout discussion sessions, hand-on training sessions, and poster sessions aimed at maximizing open interaction in a smaller group. Studies of the lithosphere are by essence interdisciplinary and this meeting will be held to improve this cross-disciplinary interactions. The MYRES format was designed to maximize learning and training of junior scientists by offering review talks, hands-on tutorials, and focused discussion groups. The attendees and speakers draw from various scientific specialties, countries, ethnic groups, and both genders, reflecting the diversity of our community. MYRES also maintains a permanent Internet presence that is being built to provide a new resource for state-of-the-art, unbiased information on earth sciences. The website will be universally accessible, broadening the beneficiaries of this project to every scientist and non-scientist. The open approach is designed to increase the public awareness and understanding of the scientific process in Earth Sciences.
