[Esip-cdf] "How to build a Digital Crust" inaugural workshop at GSA Fall Meeting

[Nick Jarboe]

Dear CDF members,

I thought that this session at this Fall's GSA meeting might be of interest
to members. Especially useful for students and post-docs, to attend. link

Abstract

Increasingly, the future direction of geoscience depends on how we design
and use computational tools. A multiscale, time-integrated “digital crust”
that can be explored, visualized, and integrated into Earth system models
is necessary for future scientific work and requires sustained investment
in software infrastructure, data resources, and community practices. In
this course, we will introduce skills that can help researchers contribute
to this vision. We will cover foundational skills for sustainable digital
systems, including software design, GitHub collaboration, and database
management. Furthermore, we will examine how to integrate such work into a
geological research career.
