Dear Colleagues

We would like to draw your attention to a Special Session at the 2017 Annual Meeting of the Seismological Society of America, taking place 18–20 April, in Denver, Colorado.

Abstract Deadline is January 11, 2017

Computational infrastructure and data for enhancing earthquake science
Advances in earthquake science are becoming increasingly tied to advances in computational infrastructure. Because earthquake processes span multiple spatial and temporal scales, ranging from microscopic, millisecond source physics to long-term, global tectonic scales, earthquake scientists must rely on computational laboratories to integrate disparate data sets and perform simulation experiments. This session focuses on advances in computational infrastructure and data synthesis for enhancing earthquake science, including software, supercomputing, simulation models, sensor technology, heterogeneous data sets, cloud computing, management of huge data volumes, and development of community standards.
