The Containerized Spack-Stack Workshop will provide advanced training on using EPIC-built Apptainer containers to build and run UFS software seamlessly on Linux-based HPC systems. The training will be focused on NOAA RDHPCS systems, but will be generally applicable to other HPC platforms. Participants will learn how to build software using the containerized spack-stack and then externalize the executables so that they will run on the host system as if they were built there natively. The workshop will also cover advanced techniques for running NOAA’s global-workflow system using containerized executables, utilizing containers for automated builds, and leveraging NOAA’s public DockerHub repository for container distribution.

Join us this April at the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR) Center Green in Boulder, Colorado, or online for a one-day Artificial Intelligence (AI) in weather modeling workshop that will cover a wide range of use cases in the field of AI for numerical modeling.

The EPIC Team has built a framework using CTest to enable unit testing in the UFS Weather Model and its associated applications. The CTest framework will allow users to test functional code quickly and check that new user-implemented features work as intended. The event will be hosted September 18-22, 2023, on Google Meet with breakout rooms. This week-long virtual CodeFest is open to participants of all experience levels. Join up with folks from around the country, work together to fix theoretical vulnerabilities and issues in the UFS unit testing framework, and get feedback from EPIC’s subject matter experts. Participants/Eligibility: Anyone interested in using the unit testing framework.
