9316611 Smithson This award provides one-half the funding needed for the acquisition of a high-resolution reflection seismograph system to be used in basic research on seismic reflection methods applied to imaging the upper crust. The instrument system will be operated by the Department of Geology and Geophysics at the University of Wyoming. The University is committed to providing the remaining funds necessary for the purchase of the equipment. The seismic reflection method is the most effective means of imaging the subsurface, but common seismic recording equipment does not have the capability of recording the high-frequencies (to 100 Hz) needed to achieve high-resolution images. The new system will be used by the reflection seismology group at the University of Wyoming to obtain improved images of shallow crustal structures. ***

9316611 Smithson这个奖项提供了一半的资金，用于获取高分辨率反射地震仪系统，该系统用于用于对上层外壳进行成像的地震反射方法的基础研究。该仪器系统将由怀俄明大学地质与地球物理学系运营。该大学致力于提供购买设备所需的剩余资金。 地震反射方法是对地下成像的最有效方法，但是常见的地震记录设备没有能力记录获得高分辨率图像所需的高频（至100 Hz）。新系统将由怀俄明大学的反思地震学组使用，以获得改进的浅层地壳结构图像。 ***
