0431929Stein Description: This award supports a two-week, field-based planning visit for US PI Holly Stein and co-PI Judith Hannah of Colorado State University (CSU) to build collaborations with Indian geologists including Dr. Santanu Bhowmik of the Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur. The title of the research is "Tectonic and Metallogenic History of the Central Indian Tectonic Zone and Bordering Terranes." Combining US expertise in geochronology with Indian knowledge of field relationships will enable them to address major questions in tectonics and metallogenesis. With their Indian colleagues, they will visit several already identified localities in order to (1) assess exposures and accessibility to improve planning of the larger project; (2) assess the current knowledge and understanding of the field relationships; (3) collect samples for preliminary analyses that can guide future field work; and (4) solidify plans for a multi-year collaborative research project. Following this, the investigators will submit a full proposal to NSF's Petrology & Geochemistry Program, which is expected to yield important information on the growth of continents and the position of various Indian terranes in plate tectonic reconstructions. Scope: This award includes support for one CSU graduate student, which will also be a training opportunity in state-of-the-art analytical techniques, an immersion in complex tectonics, and an introduction to the unique geology and culture of India. New concepts and broadened understanding of the regional tectonics acquired by both PIs and student will find there way into the classroom. The collaboration with Indian geoscientists is expected to build long-lasting research relationships with mutually beneficial interactions. This project will help sustain a shared research facility at CSU, which during the past six years has supported individuals from industry, academia, and government agencies. This award will enable the inclusion of India's geosciences community, which currently lacks comparable facilities and expertise.

0431929STENSTEIN描述：该奖项支持科罗拉多州立大学（CSU）的美国Pi Holly Stein和Co-Pi Judith Hannah进行为期两周的基于现场的计划访问，以与印度印度技术学院的Santanu Bhowmik博士在Kharagpur，Kharagpur，Kharagpur的印度地质学家建立合作。 这项研究的标题是“印度中部构造区和与地面接壤的构造和金属遗传史”。 将我们在地质学领域的美国知识中的专业知识结合在一起，将使他们能够解决构造学和金属作用方面的主要问题。 他们将与印度同事一起访问几个已经确定的地方，以评估（1）评估曝光和可访问性，以改善大型项目的计划； （2）评估当前对现场关系的知识和理解； （3）收集样本进行初步分析，以指导未来的现场工作； （4）巩固了多年协作研究项目的计划。 此后，调查人员将向NSF的岩石学和地球化学计划提交一份完整的建议，该计划有望在板块构造重建中产生有关大陆增长和各种印度台地位的重要信息。 范围：该奖项包括对一名CSU研究生的支持，这也将是最先进的分析技术的培训机会，沉浸在复杂的构造中，并介绍了印度独特的地质和文化。 新概念并扩大了对PI和学生所获得的区域构造的理解，将在那儿找到进入课堂的方式。 预计与印度地球科学家的合作将与互惠互动建立持久的研究关系。 该项目将有助于维持CSU的共享研究机构，在过去的六年中，该设施为工业，学术界和政府机构的个人提供了支持。 该奖项将使目前缺乏可比的设施和专业知识的印度地球科学社区包括。
