Advances in Seismology and Implications for Interdisciplinary Research Adam M. Dziewonski Symposium

该奖项为一个关注地震学最新进展及其对跨学科研究的影响的研讨会提供支持。研讨会的目的是将来自广泛学科的地球科学家聚集在一起，深入讨论地震学的现状以及它如何有助于理解一般的地球过程。近年来，由于新的理论、技术和高质量数据的可用性，地震学领域取得了重大进展。地震学的这些进展补充了地球科学其他领域的进展，不同学科的新成果开始缩小领域之间的差距。这种收敛使得对地震学结果的广泛解释能够回答一些重要的跨学科问题，如地幔内部的温度和成分的非均质性。研讨会的目的是包括来自广泛学科（地震学、地球动力学、矿物物理学、大地测量学和地球化学）的演讲者，并留出大量的时间进行讨论。口头会议将辅以海报会议，这将促进与会者之间的进一步互动，并为今后的合作提供更多机会。预算包括20名早期职业科学家（包括研究生和博士后）的参与费用。这次研讨会将为他们的教育和研究提供一个极好的机会。整个专题讨论会将被录象和拍照，以便通过专题讨论会网页更广泛地分发。研讨会将向Adam Dziewonski教授致敬。他从哈佛大学退休。亚当Dziewonski吗?他的研究在研讨会上讨论的许多课题中都是基础性的，因此以他的退休来纪念这次会议是合适的。

This award provides support for a symposium focused on recent advances in seismology and their implications for interdisciplinary research. The aim of the symposium is to bring together Earth scientists from a broad range of disciplines for an in-depth discussion of the current state of seismology and how it can contribute to the understanding of Earth processes in general.Significant progress has been made in the field of seismology in recent years through new theory, techniques, and availability of high-quality data. These advances in seismology complement progress in other fields of Earth Sciences, and new results from different disciplines are beginning to close the gap between fields. This convergence is allowing broad interpretation of seismological results to answer important interdisciplinary questions such as temperature and compositional heterogeneities within the mantle.The symposium is designed to include speakers from a wide range of disciplines (seismology, geodynamics, mineral physics, geodesy, and geochemistry) with substantial time set aside for discussion. The oral sessions will be complemented by poster sessions which will facilitate further interaction of participants and further opportunities for future collaborations.The budget includes cost of participation of 20 early-career scientists including graduate students and postdocs. This symposium will be an excellent opportunity for their education and research. The entire symposium will be videotaped and photographed for broader distribution through the symposium webpage.The symposium will honor Prof. Adam Dziewonski?s retirement from Harvard University. Adam Dziewonski?s research has been fundamental in many of the subjects discussed at the symposium, making it appropriate to dedicate the meeting in honor of his retirement.
