18-22 September 2017
Livermore Valley Open Campus
Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory
Livermore, California
The goal of the workshop is to provide participants with hands-on, end-to-end experience in accessing, processing, modeling, and visualizing seismic data using advanced tools in seismological research. Participants will have access to FDSN data centers and HPC resources through the Livermore Open Campus (LVOC) to obtain and process seismic waveform data, run 3-D simulations to simulate the seismic wavefield in realistic 3D Earth models, and visualize the results. Tutorials will be offered in ObsPy, SW4, SPECFEM3D, and more!
The workshop will include keynote talks on computational seismology, leading edge research, and tutorials. Software tutorials will include independent exercises and time for participants to tinker with their own research problems. Participants will share their research through posters and lighting talks to encourage scientific exchange.
Participant Limit: 55
