SCOPED Workshop 2024
The NSF-supported workshop will occur in Seattle on May 20-24 from 9 am-5 pm Pacific Time (with breaks). The workshop aims to introduce a diverse audience to high-performance computing and data science for seismological research. We base all tutorials on real-life applications and provide hands-on experiences.

By the end of the week, participants will be able to run open-source seismic software in parallel on the Cloud and on HPC clusters with a focus on wavefield simulations, source characterization, ambient noise seismology, and earthquake catalog building aided by machine learning.

Remote participation is possible for a limited number of participants. The training will be recorded for asynchronous learning.

Travel support
We will provide domestic travel support for 15 participants. Criteria will be based on 1) attendance to the full workshop, 2) travel funding support available to participants, 3) balance in representation at workshop.

Email contact: Type your preferred email address for contact. We prefer institutional emails because we will use your email address to create accounts on AWS and TACC

Selection criteria
Participants will be selected based on:
  • Their availability and commitment to attend the week of the workshop (the training will be made available online later for everyone interested)
  • Their interest in seismological research or expertise in using CyberInfrastructure (HPC + Big Data)
  • Space limitations (40 participants onsite, 10 remote)

We seek a broad representation across levels and demography

What type of operating system is your computer?
*
Some parts of the workshop require access to a computer that has docker installed (https://www.docker.com/products/docker-desktop). Will you be able to install docker? Or, if the computer is a public/lab machine, is someone else able to install docker on that machine?
*
How familiar are you with computer programming from a command line (i.e., within a terminal window)?
*
I come with a specific interest research topics and a desire to focus on one of the topics taught (list below). (* we will build cohorts based on your response) 
*
I use Python in my life
*
Not Yet!
All and every day!
I have used (Python) Jupyter Notebooks before?
*
All of my active research projects over the past year are on GitHub with many check-ins

Do you self-identify as an Underrepresented Minority (URM)*, Low-Income, or First-Generation** student? (optional response)

* URM refers to domestic groups (American) that have been historically excluded or marginalized within academia and includes Black / African-American; Latinx/Chicanx/Hispanic; Native American / Indigneous / Native Hawaiian / Pacific Islander and Filipino.
** a student whose parents did not complete a four-year college or university degree.
