DESCRIPTION:The registration to this course is now open. Please\, bring yo
 ur own laptop. All the PATC courses at BSC are free of charge.\n\nCourse c
 onveners: Maria Teresa Pay and Mario Acosta\n\nCourse lecturers: Earth Sc
 iences Department researchers involved in the group of Computational Earth
  Sciences\, Atmospheric Composition\, Climate Prediction and Earth System 
 Services. Final lectures TBA.\n\nObjectives: The objective of this PATC co
 urse is to cover the basics of a high performance computing (HPC) environm
 ent oriented towards earth science applications\, specifically chemical we
 ather modelling and climate modelling.\n\nMore precisely\, the course will
  cover:\n\nIntroduction to earth science fundamentals and modelling\;\n	Ba
 sic usage of an HPC environment: shell\, compilers\, libraries\, file syst
 ems\, queuing system and parallel computing\;\n	Build and configure target
 ed earth science applications with the NMMB/BSC-CTM chemical transport mod
 el and with the EC-EARTH climate model\;\n	Execute and monitor numerical e
 xperiments using a workflow manager\;\n	Analyse and visualise model output
 s with a wide set of tools.\nLearning outcomes: Participants will learn an
 d gain experience in accessing an HPC facility\, installing earth science 
 numerical models and related utilities and libraries\, running numerical s
 imulations\, monitoring the execution of supercomputing jobs\, analysing a
 nd visualising model results.\n\nLevel: (All courses are designed for spec
 ialists with at least 1st cycle degree or similar background experience)\n
 For trainees with some theoretical and practical knowledge\n\nPrerequisite
 s: \nAt least University degree in progress on Earth Sciences\, Computer S
 ciences or related area\nBasic knowledge of UNIX\nKnowledge of C\, FORTRAN
 \, MPI or openMP is recommended\nKnowledge of Earth Sciences data formats 
 is recommended (grib\, netcdf\, hdf\,…)\n\nKnowledge of R and Python\n\n
