Nuclear methods of analysis in geology have wide applications in petrogenetic, alteration, age dating, pollution monitoring, and waste disposal. This project is providing hands-on experience for undergraduate faculty in the operation and use of a nuclear reactor, radiation safety, fundamentals of nuclear reactions, obtaining data by nuclear methods, data reduction, and interpretation. The program is using instrumental neutron activation analysis of short to long half- life elements, autoradiography, and fission-track dating. Participants are involved in a five day field trip to various sites in the Tertiary volcanic province of the Pacific northwest and ar being introduced in the field to many problems where the applications of nuclear methods are appropriate. Faculty are returning to their home institutions with three to four projects that include data sets, field samples and photographs, and plans for the use of the material in undergraduate classes in petrology, geochemistry and independent studies. Participants are being informed as to where and how they can continue these projects for their undergraduate classes after the program has ended.

地质分析的核方法在岩发生，变化，年龄约会，污染监测和废物处理中广泛应用。 该项目正在为本科教职员工提供动手经验，以运行和使用核反应堆，辐射安全性，核反应的基本原理，通过核方法获得数据，减少数据和解释。 该计划正在使用短到长的半寿命，放射自显影和裂变轨道约会的工具性中子激活分析。 参与者参与了太平洋西北第三火山省的各个地点进行为期五天的实地考察，并在现场引入了AR，以涉及许多问题，这些问题是适当的。 教职员工正在返回其家庭机构，其中包括数据集，现场样本和照片，以及在质学本科班级中使用材料的计划，从而在岩石学，地球化学和独立研究中使用材料。 该计划结束后，参与者被告知参与者在哪里以及如何继续为本科课程继续这些项目。
