And now, a word from our Sponsor….What is CIG? Marc Spiegelman (Columbia Univ) Mike Gurnis (Caltech) CIG Magma Dynamics Workshop
What is CIG? • A partnership between Solid-Earth Science and Computational Science • A Cooperative Agreement between Caltech and the NSF on behalf of the Geodynamics community • A SoftwareDevelopment Team working on behalf of the geodynamics community • A web-site: http://www.geodynamics.org/ • What you want it to be…an opportunity… CIG Magma Dynamics Workshop
Current CIG Working Groups/projects • Mantle Convection • Long-term Crustal Dynamics • Short-term Crustal Dynamics • Computational Science • Geodynamo • Computational Seismology • Magma Migration CIG Magma Dynamics Workshop
Current CIG Software • Mantle Convection • CitComCU, CitComS, “1-D Geophysics” • Long-term Crustal Dynamics • GALE, Ellipsis, Plasti • Short-term Crustal Dynamics • PyLith, Lithomop • Computational Science • Pythia/Pyre (PETSc,Sieve, StGermain, deall.II) • Geodynamo • MAG (in progress) • Computational Seismology • SpecFEM 3D, 1-D codes • Magma Migration (??) CIG Magma Dynamics Workshop
CIG Software Vision • Open source, well documented & supported, and easily verified • A framework of common components that allow different physics and methods to be easily coupled • Enable individual scientists to build and explore new models • Scalable from Laptops to Supercomputers CIG Magma Dynamics Workshop
Magma Dynamics as the key Integrating problem • Multi-physics: adds fluids to a range of solid models (both mantle and lithosphere) • Interoperability with other CIG codes? • Multi-scale • Magmatic regions embedded in large scale mantle dynamics • Localization phenomena in magmatic regions • Grain Scale physics? • Necessary for integrating models with Observations (particularly geochemistry and plate-boundary dynamics) • Important for large class of users and developers, particularly MG&G (Ridges/MARGINS etc.) • Progress, however, requires significant increase in flexibility of software tools.

Overarching Workshop Questions • What are the important/interesting scientific and computational problems we want to solve? • What can we do today? (what is the current state of theory and computation in magma dynamics) • What do we want to do tomorrow? • How do we get there? • How can CIG help? • An open Discussion Workshop • Goal: answer these questions and deliver concrete proposals to CIG CIG Magma Dynamics Workshop
