2024 NSF SAGE/GAGE Community Science Workshop

Date(s): June 25-27, 2024
Location: Virtual

The 2024 NSF SAGE/GAGE workshop unites researchers, faculty, and students, focusing on geophysical exploration across various realms: the solid earth, cryosphere, oceans, atmosphere, and beyond. Specifically, the workshop acts as a stage to display the myriad scientific endeavors facilitated by the NSF GAGE & SAGE facilities. It accentuates the collaborative efforts between the geodetic and seismic research sectors in advancing our comprehension of Earth Science and its societal ramifications. Additionally, it offers a platform to absorb state-of-the-art research, interact with fellow community members, and enhance technical proficiencies. This year’s workshop theme is “Empowering Geophysics Around the Globe: Science, Education, and Societal Resilience.”

The workshop is sponsored by the the National Science Foundation (NSF), National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), and US Geological Survey (USGS). The NSF Geodetic Facility for the Advancement of Geoscience (GAGE) and the NSF Seismological Facility for the Advancement of Geoscience (SAGE) are operated by EarthScope Consortium, through cooperative agreements with NSF. EarthScope Consortium was formed through a merger of IRIS and UNAVCO.

Format

The workshop will be fully virtual and will be held over three days (June 25-26-27, 2024). We will not be hosting a virtual poster session this year, instead workshop attendees will be invited to share their science with the community via “one-pager” summaries that may be uploaded on our virtual meeting platform.

EarthScope will be hosting the 2024 NSF SAGE/GAGE workshop on the Whova virtual meeting platform. All attendees will have a Whova account created automatically when they register. Whova will facilitate access to plenary sessions, short courses, special interest group (SIG) discussions, as well as attendee-submitted one-pager science summaries.

Pre-workshop short courses will be hosted virtually on June 18 & 20, the week prior to the main workshop.

All virtual attendees will be asked to adhere to the EarthScope Code of Conduct.

Workshop Goals

  • Facilitate geodetic and seismic scientific research by sharing results and planning future endeavors,
  • Foster community among geodetic and seismic researchers, faculty, students, and facility staff, and

Wednesday, June 26, 2024 – 2:00 pm – 4:00 pm Mountain Time (UTC-6:00)

Description:

The Common Sensor Platform (CSP) is a unified NSF GAGE and SAGE Facilities engineering effort that is working to create a scalable, modular instrument platform that will be configurable to multiple types of geophysical instrumentation and adaptable to a variety of terrestrial environments.

In this session, we will present our first round of project deliverables, including the version 1 (v1) CSP station design, technical documents, and resources we have developed for users. We will also share our successes in building collaborative engineering practices and procedures across our instrumentation groups. Most importantly, we will be using this time to actively seek community feedback on our v1 design and will solicit ideas for the next round of CSP engineering efforts.

Goals:

The major goals for the session are to: a) introduce our v1 design to our PI community; b) communicate the engineering processes and workflows we have established thus far; and most importantly, c) receive feedback from our users and community members on our work to date. The feedback we receive will help inform our v2 design and identify new ideas and improvements to our future efforts.

Description:

SZ4D is a community-driven initiative for a long-term, interdisciplinary research program to define the limits and possibilities of predicting geohazards. This effort focuses on subduction zones, which host seismic, volcanic, landslide, and tsunamigenic hazards and their interactions. The purpose of this SIG is to update the community on recent and planned SZ4D activities, highlight opportunities available through existing programs such as SZNet, and seek community input on future directions.

Goals:

1) We seek to inform community members of the latest SZ4D efforts and initiatives and opportunities to engage with SZ4D. 

2) Efforts are underway to refine plans for instrumental arrays envisaged in the SZ4D Implementation Plan (Hilley et al., 2022) in preparation for instrumentation proposals. These arrays would include seismic, geodetic and other geophysical, geological, geochemical and environmental instruments, and community feedback is essential. 

3) SZ4D is also working to catalyze and coordinate other activities required to address the science questions outlined in the SZ4D Implementation Plan, including facilitating PI collaborations, and the SIG offers an opportunity for discussion and networking by interested community members to identify knowledge gaps and discuss strategies to address them.

Primary contact: Anika Knight (EarthScope Consortium, anika.knightat symbolearthscope.org)

Description:

Open science is an umbrella term describing open and participatory research practices, where publications, software, and data are shared freely. Mandates for open access publication, open data, and open sourcing of software are becoming more common from funding agencies and from publishers, leading to shifts in how we plan and conduct research, conceptualize research products, and share results.

The goal of this session is to present ideas and open up discussions on how open science practices can and should work in the geophysics community. The session will include some short presentation on definitions of open access/open data/open source and good practices for individuals and groups, combined with broad discussions on topics like the benefits of and potential barriers to open science, community norms surrounding open science, and expectations for reproducibility with open data/code.

Goals:

We hope participants will leave with an understanding of open science terminology and some new ideas on how to make their work more “open” both to the scientific community and more broadly. As various funding and publication mandates (and general good citizenship?) push towards more openness it’s useful to get the community talking about what we’re already doing, what we could improve on, and what positive changes might look like for geophysics in particular.

Open science terms aren’t always well understood by researchers, so one purpose of this session is to demystify the jargon (e.g., differences between green/gold/diamond open access) and show how open science concepts can be understood in the context of geophysics (e.g., how does open data align with common embargo period policies).

Beyond defining terminology, by discussing common open science questions in (small) group settings, the goal is for participants to come away with a sense for the concrete actions they might want to take towards open science practices as well as an understanding of cost/benefit for their work. This works in two directions: participants may learn strategies from each other for how to implement open science practices or work around various resource limitations, and the community as a whole can learn what common barriers (beyond just money) are that keep people from doing things like publishing OA and making their data and code available.
