Congratulations to Igor Stubailo for a successful PhD defense!
C.B. and collaborators at the University of Maryland and the Scripps Institution for Oceanography have been awarded a new grant by the National Science Foundation: “Collaborative Research: Detecting Seismic Anisotropy in the Upper Mantle and Upper Mantle Transition Zone” (NSF EAR #1446978).
Our group has 4 presentations at the 2014 AGU Fall meeting. Look for us in sessions DI22A, S41D, S51C, and S53A. In addition, C.B. is co-convener of a DI session “The Mantle Transition Zone: Its Role in Earth’s Thermochemical Evolution” starting Wednesday 17 December at 10:20am!
Very exciting news for our group! A new project in collaboration with Prof. Nicholas Schmerr (Maryland) and Prof. Gabi Laske (SIO, UCSD) is recommended for funding by the National Science Foundation!
