2nd YESA Workshop
"Seismic observations for the deep Earth and the interpretation"
Date: September 28-29, 2009, Venue: Ehime University, Japan
Posters: Outline, Program
The Young Earth Scientist Association (YESA) of the global COE organized the 2nd YESA workshop at GRC on 28-29 September, 2009. The workshop aimed at having extensive discussion on dynamics of the deep Earth, based on high-pressure experimental studies, numerical simulations, and seismological observations. In this workshop, emphasis was made on the interpretation of seismological observations by experimental and theoretical mineral physics studies. Eight young scientists from, Hiroshima Univ., JAMSTEC, National Inst, Polar Res., Shizuoka Univ., Tohoku Univ., TiTech. and Univ. Tokyo were invited to give talks, while four speakers were selected from the YESA members of GRC. The interdisciplinary workshop, also attended by about 30 GRC members, was highly successful with extensive discussions among the young scientists, followed by further communication at izakaya restaurants.
