This grant will partially support the 2013 Interior of the Earth Gordon Research Conference (GRC, June 2-7, 2013) and the second Gordon Research Seminar (GRS, June 1-2) which will be held at Mount Holyoke College in South Hadley, Massachusetts. The GRC is the 9th in a series of Gordon Research Conferences that focus on the structure, dynamics and evolution of the Earth's interior. For the second time, the Gordon Conference will be preceded by a Gordon Research Seminar (http://www.grc.org/programs.aspx?year=2013&program=grs_inter), a unique forum for graduate students, post-docs, and other scientists with comparable levels of experience and education to present and exchange new data and cutting edge ideas. NSF funds will be used to attract young scientists to theGRC and GRS, from a diverse range of institutions, backgrounds and scientific disciplines.The forthcoming conference will focus on the deep Earth and will cover, among others, the structure, composition and dynamics of the core-mantle boundary region and the core, magnetic field, planets, as well as structure and geochemical evolution of the whole Earth, from a multidisciplinary perspective. Invited speakers from the fields of geochemistry, geodynamics, mineral physics, geomagnetism and seismology will define the forefront of knowledge and set the stage for a freewheeling discussion and debate of the most pressing scientific questions. Specific session topics include inner core structure and dynamics, the structure and nature of LLSVP's (large low shear velocity provinces), the mantle transition zone and interactions between the upper and the lower mantle, early earth and geochemical reservoirs, rheology and mineralogy of the deep mantle, the core-mantle boundary and core/mantle interactions, planetary interiors. The conference will also provide the opportunity for junior scientists and graduate students to present their work in poster format and exchange ideas with leading researchers. The latter will be greatly facilitated by the preceding GRS, which will focus on 'Structure of the Earth's Deep Interior and its Role in Mantle Convection", providing particular synergy with the GRC to follow. The collegial atmosphere of both GRC and GRS, with programmed discussion sessions and opportunities for informal gatherings, is intended to generate lively exchange and promote cross-disciplinary collaborations.

这笔赠款将部分支持 2013 年地球内部戈登研究会议（GRC，2013 年 6 月 2-7 日）和第二届戈登研究研讨会（GRS，6 月 1-2 日），该研讨会将在南哈德利的曼荷莲学院举行，马萨诸塞州。 GRC 是戈登研究系列会议中的第九次会议，该系列会议重点关注地球内部的结构、动力学和演化。第二次，戈登会议之前将举行戈登研究研讨会 (http://www.grc.org/programs.aspx?year=2013&program=grs_inter)，这是一个针对研究生、博士后和研究人员的独特论坛。其他具有相当经验和教育水平的科学家可以展示和交流新数据和前沿思想。 NSF 资金将用于吸引来自不同机构、背景和科学学科的年轻科学家来到 GRC 和 GRS。即将举行的会议将重点关注地球深处，并将涵盖地球深处的结构、组成和动力学等内容。从多学科角度研究核幔边界区和地核、磁场、行星以及整个地球的结构和地球化学演化。来自地球化学、地球动力学、矿物物理学、地磁学和地震学领域的受邀演讲者将定义前沿知识，并为最紧迫的科学问题的自由讨论和辩论奠定基础。具体会议主题包括内核结构和动力学、LLSVP（大型低剪切速度区）的结构和性质、地幔过渡带以及上地幔和下地幔之间的相互作用、早期地球和地球化学储层、深部流变学和矿物学地幔、核-地幔边界和核/地幔相互作用、行星内部。会议还将为初级科学家和研究生提供以海报形式展示其工作并与领先研究人员交流想法的机会。后者将得到前面的 GRS 的极大促进，GRS 将重点关注“地球深层内部结构及其在地幔对流中的作用”，与随后的 GRC 提供特别的协同作用。GRC 和 GRS 的学院氛围，以及程序化的讨论会和非正式聚会的机会，旨在产生活跃的交流并促进跨学科合作。
