[CIG-SHORT] CIG WEBINAR: April 11, 2013 @ 2pm PT - Sarah Minson

[Lorraine Hwang]

Dear Colleagues:
 

Please save Thursday, April 11 @ 2pm PT for our next CIG Webinar featuring
Sarah Minson from the US Geological Survey on Bayesian Earthquake Modeling.
Her seminar will provide an introduction to Bayesian analysis and its
advantages and disadvantages relative to traditional optimization approaches
for solving geophysical inverse problems. Bayesian methods have particular
value for solving ill-posed inverse problems. Demonstrations of how to apply
Bayesian methods to real geophysical problems will be given. Although these
examples will be drawn primarily from earthquake source modeling, the
methods and tools presented are completely generic and applicable to a wide
array of geophysical inverse problems, and the discussion will be broadly
directed to the modeling community. 

 
You may connect to the meeting through the link provided below or through
the home page at  geodynamics.org.  More complete instructions can also be
found at:

Remember to test your connection before the beginning the webinar.
 
All webinars will be recorded for later viewing at the above url and on our
YouTube Channel, CIG Geodynamics
(http://www.youtube.com/user/cigeodynamics).  Navigate to either to view
previous webinars. Prof. Sylvain Barbot's most recent webinar,  Using Relax
to probe the rheology of the lithosphere , is currently available for
viewing. 
 
Please forward to friends and colleagues.
 
Regards,
-Lorraine
