Intellectual merit. This proposal requests support for travel and meeting costs for an American Geophysical Union Chapman Conference on Shallow Mantle Composition and Dynamics to be held September 22 to 26, 2008, at the Mount Shasta Resort, Mount Shasta, California (http://www.agu.org/meetings/chapman/2008/ccall/). This will be the fifth International Orogenic Lherzolite Conference, with previous conferences held near the peridotite massifs of Lanzo (N Italy, 1990), Ronda (Spain, 1995), Finero (N Italy, 1999), and Horoman (Japan, 2002). The year 2008 marks the 31st anniversary of the 1977 Chapman Conference on Partial Melting in the Earth?s Upper Mantle held in the Josephine peridotite, one of two field trip locales for the current meeting. This venue was selected as a result of unanimous request of the participants at the previous Conference in this series.Broader impacts. The overall objective of these meetings is to assemble specialists in studies of peridotite massifs and upper mantle processes for a field conference, where recent results and key outcrops can be discussed in a group setting. This conference will incorporate a broader range of topics than previously, and includes influential scientists in rock mechanics and low-temperature alteration processes in the organizing committee to ensure that this is a success. Topics to be covered will include melting processes, melt transport, metasomatism, localized and regional deformation, formation and nature of plate boundaries, mechanisms of intermediate depth earthquakes, and both geochemistry and physical processes of low temperature alteration. An attendance of between 80 and 120 international scientists is anticipated, including ~20% graduate students and post doctoral researchers.

智力上的优点。该提案要求为将于 2008 年 9 月 22 日至 26 日在加利福尼亚州沙斯塔山度假村举行的美国地球物理联盟查普曼浅层地幔成分和动力学会议提供差旅和会议费用 (http://www.agu .org/meetings/chapman/2008/ccall/)。这将是第五届国际造山二辉橄榄岩会议，之前的会议均在 Lanzo（意大利北部，1990 年）、Ronda（西班牙，1995 年）、Finero（意大利北部，1999 年）和 Horoman（日本，2002 年）橄榄岩地块附近举行。 2008 年是 1977 年查普曼地球上地幔部分熔融会议在约瑟芬橄榄岩举行的 31 周年，该会议是本次会议的两个实地考察地点之一。这个地点是应本系列上届会议与会者的一致要求而选择的。具有更广泛的影响。这些会议的总体目标是召集橄榄岩地块和上地幔过程研究的专家参加一次现场会议，在会上可以以小组形式讨论最新的结果和关键露头。本次会议将包含比以往更广泛的主题，组委会中包括岩石力学和低温蚀变过程方面有影响力的科学家，以确保会议取得成功。涵盖的主题将包括熔融过程、熔体传输、交代作用、局部和区域变形、板块边界的形成和性质、中深度地震的机制以及低温蚀变的地球化学和物理过程。预计将有 80 至 120 名国际科学家出席，其中包括约 20% 的研究生和博士后研究人员。
