9526730 Ni This grant provides $35,000 as partial support of the costs of acquiring hardware, software and peripherals to upgrade a computer laboratory used for research in computational and observational seismology. Specific research includes studies of active tectonics in southern Tibet and, eventually, the monitoring of the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty (CTBT), which prohibits all nuclear weapons testing. The bulk of this equipment request includes a new Sun SPARCstation 20 server, 2 Sun SPARCstation 5's, increased storage capacity and programming and data analysis software. The upgrade will benefit a small but growing number of faculty and students in the Geophysics department at New Mexico State University. ***

9526730 ni这笔赠款提供了35,000美元，以部分支持获取硬件，软件和外围设备以升级用于计算和观察性地震学研究的计算机实验室。 具体的研究包括对西藏南部的主动构造学的研究，最终是对《综合测试禁令条约》（CTBT）的监测，该条约禁止所有核武器测试。 该设备请求的大部分包括新的Sun Sparcstation 20服务器，2个Sun Sparcstation 5，增加存储容量以及编程和数据分析软件。 升级将使新墨西哥州立大学地球物理系的少数但越来越多的教职员工受益。 ***
