Research computing skills are increasingly crucial in seismological research and the Quakeworx science gateway provides researchers with access to advanced geophysical and seismological computing capabilities. We are happy to invite you to join the online 'Quakeworx Kick-off: Advancing Earthquake Science and Cybertraining in Seismology Workshop'.
This 4-day workshop will provide an introduction to computational modeling and simulation using the Quakeworx science gateway. The Quakeworx science gateway curates a growing set of seismic applications that can be used by attendees easily from a web browser. The workshop will cover open science and research software engineering practices, discuss curating and publishing research applications and artifacts, and provide an overview of running simulations and analyzing results on Quakeworx. The workshop will be delivered in four sessions listed below.
