The new Mac M1 processors are pretty cool, and are enough to convert this veteran Linux user to Mac. Since Mac M1, M2, etc. are all ARM-based there are some differences to be aware of when installing your Python environment.

Numerical models of groundwater flow play a critical role for water management scenarios under climate extremes. Large‑scale models …

PyCurious is a Python package for computing the depth to 580°C from maps of the Earth’s magnetic anomaly using a Bayesian …

Geodynamicists from Sydney and Australian National universities have developed Stripy, a software module that allows scientists to efficiently place GIS ‘wrapping paper’ around the spherical Earth ‘present’. This is the first module to be built for a common scientific programming language like Python, that supports such ‘wrapping’, or mapping features. Here, developer Dr Ben Mather explains Stripy’s key functions for the AuScope Earth modelling community.

The triangulation of scattered points is a common problem in science and engineering when local neighbourhood information is required …

In an Underworld release far, far away… Geodynamicists struggle to model planetary dynamics due to the Cartesian Empire. Physical observations suffer inappropriate meshing and projections bend minds. The Underworld team builds the ultimate weapon to erase the Cartesian nightmare based on the ancient practice of the Cubed-Sphere mesh.

Quagmire is an open source, parallel python module for modelling surface processes and landscape evolution. It comes from the …

Most of the codes I develop run in parallel using MPI (Message Passing Interface) using the python wrapper, mpi4py. There is a reason why highly scalable programs use this approach, and that is because each processor handles its own chunk of memory and communicates with other processors only when it’s needed.

A method to relate the spatial configuration of mesh nodes to lithology that is differentiable - an adjoint to the inversion of geological structure.
