Preliminary Seismology

The workshop will dive into advanced computing levels starting the second day. We recommend to seismologists to assess their level of comfort in computing in seismological research. We selected several beginner and intermediate tutorials that have been fantastic to get refreshers on computing skills for seismic data and that we recommend.

Attention

Please make sure to find some time to go through the below material before the workshop.

Basic Seismology

• Please watch this video of an introduction to Opbsy.

• Install Obspy using conda: conda install -c conda-forge obspy

• Reading seismograms

• Plot waveforms

• Filter data

• Spectrograms

• Focal mechanism

Intermediate Seismology

• Practice downloading and plotting

• Practice looking at earthquake

Fantastic est of video tutorials by the ROSES program. Note that every year has slightly different topics.

• Offering in 2020 and their Github

• Offering in 2021, and their Github
