OpenSHA v26.1.1 Now Available
|
There is a critical hotfix release of OpenSHA 26.1.1, now available for download at: https://opensha.org.
|
This hotfix release fixes a critical bug that prevented the GMT Map Application from working in v26.1.0. Please update to the latest version if you are currently using v26.1.0 or are experiencing any issues with OpenSHA web services.

2026 Crustal Deformation Modeling Workshop
|
Date: June 8-12, 2026,
Location: Colorado School of Mines, Golden, CO
Organizers:
|
Brad Aagaard (chair), U.S. Geological Survey
Matthew Knepley, University at Buffalo
Karen Luttrell, Louisiana State University
Kathryn Materna, University of Colorado, Boulder
Charles Williams, Earth Sciences New Zealand
|
The 2026 Crustal Deformation Modeling Workshop will focus on computational models addressing crustal deformation in the following areas:
|
- Constraining long-term fault slip rates and their uncertainties using geodetic and geologic data;
- Bayesian inversion of geodetic data for fault slip; and
- Interaction of fluids and faulting.
The workshop will be held June 8-12, 2026, in Golden, Colorado, on the campus of the Colorado School of Mines. The first two days of the workshop will be tutorials related to PyLith (an open-source, community code for modeling crustal deformation with a focus on earthquake faulting; all software tools used in the tutorials are free and open-source), followed by three days of science talks, discussions, and informal tutorials and collaboration.
|
|
We will provide reimbursement for a portion of the travel costs incurred for registered attendees with official appointments at U.S. institutions. To attend the workshop, please read through all event details before registering.
|
See the Workshop web page for the registration link and draft agenda.
|
Registration closes April 20.

2026 Conference on Machine Learning in Solid Earth Geoscience and Earthquake Physics
|
The 2026 Conference on Machine Learning in Solid Earth Geoscience and Earthquake Physics is taking place on June 14-19, 2026 at the Hotel Baia Samuele, Sicily, Italy. Recall that previous meetings have been held in Santa Fe, New Mexico, USA.
|
The conference will focus on applications of machine learning to subsurface geoscience problems, especially earthquakes (both tectonic and induced); faulting; multimodal earth imaging; geological characterization; geochemistry; rare earth elements and critical minerals; weathering; subsurface flow and transport; etc. This meeting will bring together leading experts with the goal of identifying synergies between these emerging research areas and identifying common themes and open questions.
