2021 Gordon Research Conference and Seminar on Geochronology: Evolution of the Lithosphere

第二届地质年代学戈登研究会议（GRC）和研讨会（GRS）将吸引不同职业阶段的科学家，报告跨学科研究并开展新的合作。这一定期会议的重点是测量地质年代的新方法及其在与地球和太阳系演化有关的各种问题上的应用。该奖项将支持29名早期职业科学家参加2021年GRC和GRS，他们将与不同的科学家一起分享前沿研究，并在地质年代学家与地球和行星科学其他学科的专家之间建立桥梁。 GRS是一个为期两天的研讨会，由研究生和博士后组织，重点关注研究生和博士后，它建立在非正式和合作的气氛中，分享科学，建立专业和指导网络。2021年地质年代学GRC和GRS将在佛蒙特州的斯诺山举行，并将重点关注“岩石圈的演变”。 具体的主题包括大陆的诞生，板块构造通过时间，景观演化，火山和深成岩岩浆作用，建设地幔岩石圈，并为山区带和俯冲带的发展模式。 演讲者和其他与会者将有机会讨论适用于这些和其他主题的地质年代学的发展，并确定在非正式和身临其境的环境中进行未来研究的机会。 从这个NSF奖的早期职业参与者的支持将被选中接受注册和旅行支持，使他们能够参加GRC和GRS。将通过已建立的邮寄名单和网站尽可能广泛地公布申请这一支助的程序。该项目的组织者已经计划了指导活动，包括一个由GRC赞助的女性科学“力量小时”。这种氛围是一个理想的机会，参与者在所有的职业生涯阶段，建立一个网络的合作者和导师来自不同领域的未来研究。这是由岩石学地球化学和构造学计划的支持。这个奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并已被认为是值得的支持，通过评估使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准。

The second Geochronology Gordon Research Conference (GRC) and Seminar (GRS) will pull in a diverse group of scientists who are at different career stages to report on cross disciplinary research and develop new collaborations. This recurring meeting focuses on new approaches to measuring geologic time and their application to a variety of problems related to the evolution of the Earth and Solar System. This award will support the participation of 29 early career scientists to attend both the 2021 GRC and GRS, where they will come together with a diverse set of scientists to share cutting-edge research and build bridges between geochronologists and specialists on other disciplines of Earth and Planetary science. The GRS is a two-day workshop organized by and focused on graduate students and postdocs, which builds on the informal and collaborative atmosphere to share science and build professional and mentoring networks.The 2021 Geochronology GRC and GRS will be held in Mount Snow, Vermont, and will have a focus on “the evolution of the lithosphere.” Specific topics include the birth of the continents, plate tectonics through time, landscape evolution, volcanic and plutonic magmatism, building mantle lithosphere, and developing models for mountain belts and subduction zones. Speakers and other participants will have the opportunity to discuss developments in geochronology as applied to these and other topics, and identify opportunities for future research in an informal and immersive setting. Support for early career participants from this NSF award will be selected to receive registration and travel support so that they can attend the GRC and GRS. Announcement of the application procedure for this support will be broadcast as widely as possible through established mailing lists and websites. The program organizers have planned mentoring events, including a GRC sponsored women in science "power hour". This atmosphere is an ideal opportunity for participants at all career stages to build a network of collaborators and mentors from across various fields for future research.This is supported by both the Petrology & Geochemistry and Tectonics programs.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
