GORDON BELL 2015
Scientists at the University
of Texas at Austin, IBM
Research, New York
University and the
California Institute of
Technology have been
awarded the 2015 Gordon
Bell Prize for realistically
simulating the dynamics of
Earth’s interior. The team’s
work could herald a major
step toward better
understanding of
earthquakes and volcanic
activity.
