DESCRIPTION:\n	\n		The solutions of many scientific problems in Earth Scien
 ces are tightly related with HPC and Data-Intensive applications. In 2012 
 PRACE identified different challenges in the scientific areas related with
  Earth Sciences\, from the climate change issues and the uncertainty asses
 sment related to Earth System modelling (including reanalyses for ocean an
 d atmosphere) to ocean\, marine\, weather and flood events forecasting wit
 h high socio-economic and environmental impact\, to natural hazard mitigat
 ion (including seismic\, volcanic\, tsunami and landslides). Aim of the Sy
 mposium is to give to a broad audience a panoramic of the state-of-art HPC
  and High Performance Data-Intensive ecosystem that can support the comput
 ationally intensive Earth Sciences applications\, to present ongoing effor
 ts and projects in this scientific area\, and to discuss about the future 
 strategic opportunities that can stem from these initiatives. \n		The eve
 nt will feature outstanding key-note speakers and world recognized scienti
 sts\, in the actively stimulating environment of the ICTP of Trieste.\n	\n
 		\n		The two days of Symposium will be devoted to present:\n	\n			large-s
 cale computational challenges in the field of Earth System modelling\, spa
 nning from climate studies to seismology\, granted by the major HPC resour
 ces allocation programs (e.g. EU-PRACE\, US-INCITE)\n		\n			innovative dev
 elopments in dynamic data structures\, coupling libraries\, management of 
 large ensembles experiments\, high resolution schemes and computational pe
 rformance\n	\n		\n			\n					big-data and data-intensive applications for d
 ata analysis\, data description and publication\, data standardization and
  exchange\n			\n				The Symposium is co-sponsored by PRACE (http://www.pra
 ce-ri.eu/) and jointly organized by ICTP (http://www.ictp.it)\, OGS (http:
 //www.ogs.trieste.it/en) and Cineca (http://www.cineca.it/en).\n					Grant
 s are available from participants coming from the EU region (outside the T
 rieste area) that can certify to be not funded  by their institutions to 
 attend the symposium.\n				\n					The grant amounts to 200 € for partici
 pants from abroad Italy and to 100€ for participants coming from Italy.\
 n				\n					Eligible participants are requested to send an e-mail to uff.p
 ersonale@cineca.it with the subject “Symposium on HPC and Data-Intensive
  Applications in Earth Sciences: Challenges and Opportunities – GRANT RE
 QUEST”\, attaching a copy of the invitation letter to the event (receive
 d from ICTP). Additional documentation will also be requested. Grants are 
 delivered only a month later to the end of the event and subjected to the 
 verification that the eligible participant registered to the Symposium.\n
