NSF Workshop: Drilling active tectonics and magmatism (Volcanics, Geoprisms, and Fault Zones Post-SAFOD)

该奖项将提供资金，用于组织和召开一次研讨会，探讨如何利用大陆科学钻探来更好地了解断层、火山和火山省所表现的活动构造过程。本次研讨会将以SAFOD(圣安德烈亚斯深度断层观测站)、车龙堡断层钻探项目、新西兰阿尔卑斯山断层钻探项目、科里斯湾项目、温岑火山钻探项目和夏威夷科学钻探项目(HSDP)等成功工作为基础。预计与会者将为研究与断层和火山有关的活动构造和岩浆过程确定重要的科学理由，这些活动和岩浆过程可以通过大陆科学钻探和相关现场调查的协调计划来解决。讲习班参与者将确定这些进程的优先顺序，并提出这些努力将针对的断层和火山类型。我们设想这些努力将包括跨学科计划，这些计划可以与正在进行的NSF倡议(例如，Geoprisms；IRIS；Earth Scope)直接相关，并且可以应用于一系列规模，从局部断层系统到板块边界断层，从小型单生喷口到超级火山。这次研讨会的目标是详细研究这些问题，并提供解决活跃构造钻探中最紧迫问题的具体项目的路线图。

This award will provide funds to organize and convene a workshop that will explore how continental scientific drilling can be used to better understand active tectonic processes expressed by faults, volcanoes, and volcanic provinces. This workshop will build upon successful efforts such as SAFOD (San Andreas Fault Observatory at Depth), the Chelungpu fault drilling project, the Alpine Fault drilling project in New Zealand, the Gulf of Corith project, the Unzen volcanic drilling project, and the Hawaiian Scientific Drilling Project (HSDP). Participants will be expected to define significant scientific justifications for examining the active tectonics and magmatic processes related to faults and volcanoes that can be addressed by a coordinated program of continental scientific drilling and related site investigations. Workshop participants will prioritize these processes, and propose the types of faults and volcanoes that would be targeted by these efforts. We envision these efforts to comprise interdisciplinary programs that can be directly related to on-going NSF initiatives (e.g., Geoprisms; IRIS; Earthscope), and which can be applied at a range of scales, from localized fault systems to plate boundary faults, and from small monogenetic vents to super-volcanoes. The goal for this workshop is to examine these issues in detail and to provide a roadmap of specific projects that address the most pressing issues in active tectonics drilling.
