I tried to combine some ideas building from our OpenTopography project with nascent ML collaborations with Dr. Zhiang Chen. Thanks for their contributions.

Opportunities associated with AI/ML are really exciting, but there is a lot to think about for infrastructure, research, and education.

San Andreas Fault in the Carrizo Plain Field trips

Recently, I pulled together some notes for the SCEC UNREST Field trip in the Carrizo Plain. It was a great conversation to share with the esteemed colleagues.

So I can find it, here are the notes that produced as a handout: LINK

Here are a few other items/guides:

• Field trip along the San Andreas Fault in the Carrizo Plain--Guide I wrote some time ago
