Dear Colleagues,

Don’t miss the upcoming SCEC Parkfield 2.0 Workshop (June 10–11, 2026, Moffett Field, CA)—a great opportunity to help shape the next phase of earthquake system science in the Parkfield region.

The workshop will combine oral presentations on background and history, key disciplinary and interdisciplinary research findings and questions, and critical research needs and associated discussion sessions with poster presentations illuminating the breadth of past, current, and potential future research in the region. We expect to emerge from the workshop with an exciting vision for Parkfield science in the future, including a set of well-posed scientific questions that align with the SCEC science plan and that can be addressed through SCEC community activities focused on the Parkfield region. See the program agenda at: www.scec.org/events/2026-scec-parkfield-workshop.

To foster discussion and interaction, the workshop is expected to convene approximately 50 participants, who will be selected based on their statement of interest and the potential contribution to the workshop objectives. The application deadline is April 27, 2026, and accepted participants will be notified by May 4, 2026, with details on registration payments, hotel reservations, and additional travel support if applicable.
We hope to see you there!

Sincerely,

Parkfield Workshop Conveners (Bill Ellsworth, Roland Burgmann, Cliff Thurber, Yihe Huang, Andy Barbour, Nathan Toke)
