This award will provide 45 per cent of the funds necessary to              purchase an automated, wave-length dispersive x-ray fluorescence                spectrometer system to be installed in the Hawaii Institute of                  Geophysics at the University of Hawaii. The remaining funds will                be provided by the institution. The new instrument is to replace                an antiquated and severely limited instrument which is incapable                of meeting the research needs of the geochemistry group at the                  University of Hawaii.                                                                The spectrometer is capable of routine analysis for major and              trace elements in a wide range of natural materials. The active                 research projects which will use the new machine heavily include                studies of the Galapagos ocean-spreading center's failure and                   propagation mechanisms, detailed monitoring of petrochemical                    changes in eruptions of Kilauea Volcano, and the geochemistry of                the very fast spreading segments of the East Pacific Rise.
