Title: Computational Seismology Workshop Trains Early-Career Scientists

Abstract

The Computational Infrastructure for Geodynamics (CIG), in collaboration with Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL), held a workshop last year that focused on computational seismology. The workshop provided training in seismic waveform processing, visualization, and high-performance computing (HPC) waveform simulation. Fifty-five predominantly early-career participants—graduate students and postdocs—from the United States and 16 other countries attended. The workshop was the first of its kind to feature full access to HPC resources for research-grade example problems.

DIALOG: Fostering Early Career Development Across the Aquatic Sciences

Technical Report Caroline Susan Weiler, PhD

A total of 447 dissertation abstracts were received for the DIALOG V Program, with 146 individuals applying for the DIALOG V Symposium; 47 were invited and 45 have accepted. This represents a significant increase compared to the DIALOG IV Program in which 221 abstracts were registered and 124 applied for the symposium. The importance of the dissertation registration service is indicated by the increasing number of individuals who take time to register their dissertation even when they are not interested in applying to the symposium. The number of visits to the webpage has also increased significantly over the years. Thismore »« less

An Atmospheric Aerosol Short Course for Early Career Scientists

Journal Article Mather, James H. ; Burrows, Susannah M. ; Chand, Duli ; ... - Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society

The first Department of Energy (DOE) Environmental and Molecular Science Laboratory (EMSL)/Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) aerosol summer school was held July 15-19, 2019 at the EMSL user facility located at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. The school set out to provide graduate students and early-career scientists an overview of atmospheric aerosol science and an introduction to the measurement techniques available through the EMSL and ARM user facilities to address current aerosol science issues. Instructors for the course were drawn from scientists from the EMSL (Laskin et al., 2016; China et al., 2018) and ARM facilities (McComiskey and Ferrare, 2016) as wellmore »« less

Programs for Increasing the Engagement of Underrepresented Ethnic Groups and People with Disabilities in HPC. Final assessment report

Technical Report Taylor, Valerie

Given the significant impact of computing on society, it is important that all cultures, especially underrepresented cultures, are fully engaged in the field of computing to ensure that everyone benefits from the advances in computing. This proposal is focused on the field of high performance computing. The lack of cultural diversity in computing, in particular high performance computing, is especially evident with respect to the following ethnic groups – African Americans, Hispanics, and Native Americans – as well as People with Disabilities. The goal of this proposal is to organize and coordinate a National Laboratory Career Development Workshop focused onmore »« less

SIAM Workshop: Focus on Diversity 2001

Conference

The Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM) held a workshop focused on underrepresented minorities--graduate and undergraduate students, postdocs, and recent Ph.D's--in the mathematical and computational sciences on July 11, 2001, as part of the SIAM Annual Meeting in San Diego, California. The workshop was intended to accomplish several goals: (1) to a provide workshop focused on careers for and retention of minority students in the mathematical and computational sciences; (2) to bring together a mixture of people from different levels of professional experience, ranging from undergraduate students to senior scientists in an informal setting in order to share careermore »« less
