-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [R-sig-Geo] AGU Session dedicated to R: R's Emerging Environmental Modeling Community Date: Sat, 23 Jul 2011 22:50:04 -0400 From: Daniel Fuka <[email protected]> To: [email protected], [email protected]
Hello! The American Geophysical Union (AGU) Fall Meeting, Dec. 5-9, San Francisco, CA, USA, will have a dedicated session this year. I am sorry for cross-posting, but for the session we are looking to have R users and modelers in all fields loosely related to "Environmental Modeling" feel free to join us. If you think this might be of interest, please feel free to contact me directly outside of the R mailing lists or submit an abstract by August 4th. Session link and description are found below. Enjoy, Daniel Fuka http://sites.agu.org/fallmeeting/scientific-program/session-search/477 H57: R's Emerging Environmental Modeling Community Sponsors: Hydrology (H), Atmospheric Sciences (A), Biogeosciences (B), Earth and Space Science Informatics (IN) Description: Most environmental modeling efforts rely on a dedicated, centralized, core group of developers. However, a unique, decentralized community of environmental modelers appears to be organically evolving within the R-project. R is an open-source programming language that has grown into something like a combination of S, MATLAB(Reg), GIS, and Python. One aspect of the R-project that lends itself to community modeling is a well-managed system for developing sharable code packages (R-Forge) and archiving them (CRAN). Recent contributions to R-Forge/CRAN include a suite of hydrological modeling tools, functions, and complete watershed models (e.g., TOPMODEL). This session invites R-modelers to share their projects and ideas about community modeling. _______________________________________________ R-sig-Geo mailing list [email protected] https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-geo + + To post a message to the list, send it to [email protected] + To unsubscribe, send email to majordomo@ jrc.ec.europa.eu with no subject and "unsubscribe ai-geostats" in the message body.
