9601930 Lerner-Lam This grant, made through the Academic Research Infrastructure (ARI) Program, provides $500,000 as one-half support of the costs of acquiring a very large mass storage system for earth and environmental research at the Lamont Doherty Earth Observatory. Specifically, the equipment will include roughly 10.5 terabytes (TB) of mass storage, of which, 500 GB will be concentrated in high speed file servers and a serial storage architecture (SSA) disk and the remaining 10 TB of storage will be accommodated by digital tape through a "juke box" system. This mass storage system will serve both the IBM scalable parallel supercomputer (SP2) at Lamont and a network of 140 high performance workstations for this group's data intensive research including, reflection and refraction seismology, numerical modeling of the geophysical fluid dynamics of the Earth's mantle, climate dynamics and exploration and near-surface geophysics. ***

9601930 Lerner-Lam通过学术研究基础设施（ARI）计划提供的这笔赠款提供了500,000美元，作为对在Lamont Doherty Earth Perservatory购买非常大的地球和环境研究成本的一半支持。 具体而言，该设备将包括大约10.5吨的质量存储（TB），其中500 GB将集中在高速文件服务器和串行存储架构（SSA）磁盘中，其余的10 TB存储将由数字磁带通过“ Juke Box”系统容纳。 该质量存储系统将在拉蒙特（Lamont）的IBM可扩展的平行超级计算机（SP2）和该组的140个高性能工作站的网络，包括该小组的数据密集型研究，包括反射和逆转地震学，地球地球物质动力学的数值建模，地球覆盖物，气候动力学和勘探动力学和探索物质和近距离地球底面。 ***
