From ljhwang at ucdavis.edu Sun Apr 8 15:40:08 2018 From: ljhwang at ucdavis.edu (Lorraine Hwang) Date: Sun, 8 Apr 2018 15:40:08 -0700 Subject: [CIG-ALL] Coupling of Tectonic and Surface Processes, April 25-27, 2018: Invitation for remote participation Message-ID: <0851375B-0FB3-4309-8D49-EDF590A09DA0@ucdavis.edu> 8 April 2018 Greetings - The workshop focused on Coupling of Tectonic and Surface Processes (CTSP), April 25-27, 2018 is intended to survey both questions and state of the art numerical techniques that simulate surface processes and long term tectonic (LTT) processes in an attempt to define a framework for the development of efficient numerical algorithms that couple across multiple length and time scales. This workshop will provide a unique opportunity for researchers to develop collaborations and proposal ideas and by doing so enhance and increase the impact of both the LTT and CSDMS communities. We expect a broad and diverse audience drawn from domestic and international research communities, including graduate students, post-docs, and early career scientists, who are interested in coupling landscape evolution to tectonic processes. Although registration is now closed for onsite participation in CTSP, we invite you to participate remotely using the Zoom meeting platform. You will be able to view all plenary talks, round table discussions and participate in remote group breakout sessions each day of the workshop. Meeting information including agenda can be found on the workshop website: https://csdms.colorado.edu/wiki/Form:Meetingconfirmation . Registration is required in advance. Once you have registered, a link will be forwarded with detailed remote joining instructions.

Message-ID: It seems to me that CIGers are well positioned to organize one or more of these. There is presently a lack of solid Earth participation (if you look at the last link). Tutorials This Fall Meeting has a new session type called tutorials. These are described further here: https://fallmeeting.agu.org/2018/session-proposals/tutorial-proposals/ . The tutorial sessions were pioneered at the Ocean Science meeting. Each tutorial will be 30 minutes in length and related to one main topic—examples from the recent Ocean Sciences meeting are here: https://agu.confex.com/agu/os18/meetingapp.cgi/Program/1427 . These were some of the most popular sessions at the meeting. We will have room for only about 15 or so of these sessions at the Fall Meeting this year (less than one per section). The experience from the Ocean Science meeting is that these sessions are best when they are organized and planned by the scientific leadership (that is YOU!!!). We thus encourage you to plan and solicit submissions from your members around a specific topic. We encourage related sections to work together. Another reason to have these planned is that many of the tutorial sessions may also be used for some of our policy outreach related to the Fall Meeting. These will continue at future Fall Meetings, so we can cover other topics then. Current submissions are listed here: https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm18/preliminaryview.cgi/Program1880 . Please look over these and to see if they are what you would like to represent from your section. If not, please encourage others. Final selection will be at the Fall Meeting Program Committee meeting in May. Please communicate your tutorial priorities with your representatives for this meeting. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Thanks so much, Juli -------------------------------- REMINDER: There is still time to apply for the Gordon Research Conference on Rock Deformation. The full program is now online:    https://www.grc.org/rock-deformation-conference/2018/  --- Please consider applying for the upcoming Gordon Research Conference on Rock Deformation: Integrated Approaches to Rock Deformation: Observations, Experiments, and Models, scheduled for August 19-24, 2018 at Proctor Academy, NH.  This conference will provide a unique opportunity to explore the breadth of scientific disciplines relating to rock deformation, including rock physics, geology, geophysics, seismology, mechanics, and civil engineering. The conference will bring together a collection of junior and senior investigators who are at the forefront of their field, and will provide opportunities for junior scientists and graduate students to present their work in poster format and exchange ideas with leaders in the field. The collegial and open atmosphere of this Conference, with programmed discussion sessions as well as opportunities for informal gatherings in the afternoons, evenings and during the meals, provides a venue for scientists from different disciplines to brainstorm and promotes cross-disciplinary collaborations in the various research areas represented.  There will be an associated Gordon Research Seminar for early career investigators, before the Conference, August 18-19, 2018.   We expect there to be some funds to help support student travel and registration fees. See the two weblinks for both events, from which you can also apply (separate applications are required for each event): Gordon Research Conference on Rock Deformation    https://www.grc.org/rock-deformation-conference/2018/  Gordon Research Seminar on Rock Deformation (for early career investigators)    https://www.grc.org/rock-deformation-grs-conference/2018/ Attendance is limited for both conferences, so early registrations are encouraged! Hope to see you there!

So far it has been limited to global datasets, which in turn limited the maximum frequencies due to exploding storage requirements; a number of global databases are hosted by the IRIS DMC (http://ds.iris.edu/ds/products/syngine/ ). We recently expanded the AxiSEM/Instaseis combination to additionally handle local scale simulations as well as databases, which enables much higher frequencies. In this webinar, we present a short overview of the theory behind AxiSEM/Instaseis, highlight the new extensions for local scale simulations and databases, and show a short practical tutorial on how to use it. Click the link below to join the webinar using zoom on your PC, Mac, Linux, iOS or Android: https://zoom.us/j/384711375 Registration is required. Please log in early.

The biennial CMG meeting covers a wide range of current research topics in mathematical Geophysics. The conference aims to discuss key theoretical and observational aspects of solid earth, ocean, atmosphere, cryosphere, climate and other contemporary topics. The conference will take place on a boat that cruises the Volga River with daily stops at historic sites. The boat has been used for many highly successful conferences before (see recent examples at http://www.nwp.sci-nnov.ru/ ). The boat will depart and return to the city of Nizhny Novgorod (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nizhny_Novgorod ). The local organizing committee is chaired by Dr. Alexander Feigin, the conference science secretary is Dr. Yevgeniy Loskutov from the Institute of Applied Physics of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Please notice the following approaching deadlines Registration deadline: *** May 15, 2018 *** Conference web site: http://cmg2018.iapras.ru/ Please contact Dr. Anna Kazarova [kazarova at ipfran.ru ] for questions/assistance with visa.
