Crustal Deformation Modeling workshop, June 10-14, 2024

1st Announcement for the 2024 Crustal Deformation Modeling Workshop

SAVE THE DATE: June 10-14, 2024, Colorado School of Mines, Golden, CO

The focus of this gathering will be computational models addressing crustal deformation in the following areas:

  • Constraining long-term fault slip rates and their uncertainties using geodetic and geologic data;
  • Earthquake cycle modeling with a focus on constraining models using seismic and geodetic data;
  • Interaction of fluids and faulting; and
  • Separating contributions of surface loading and tectonic loading in crustal deformation.

The workshop will be held June 10-14, 2024, in Golden, Colorado on the campus of the Colorado School of Mines. The first two days of the workshop will be tutorials related to PyLith (an open-source, community code for modeling crustal deformation with a focus on earthquake faulting) followed by three days of science talks, discussions, and informal tutorials and collaboration.

We will provide reimbursement for a portion of the travel costs incurred for registered attendees with official appointments at U.S. institutions.

We anticipate posting a detailed agenda and opening registration in early April.
