Mpiper: Warning for end of service

{{PageTitle|High Performance Computing}}

<div class="warningbox">⚠️ Warning: The CSDMS compute nodes on Blanca have fallen out of warranty and will be retired in Spring 2027, ending our ability to provide HPC service to the community. We hope to be able to restore this service in a future award.</div>

CSDMS has purchased compute nodes on the [https://www.colorado.edu/rc/resources/blanca Blanca] condo cluster
managed by the University of Colorado [https://www.colorado.edu/rc Research Computing] group (CURC).
These nodes form the basis of the CSDMS High Performance Computing Cluster (HPCC),
providing access to a state-of-the-art supercomputing resource for every CSDMS member.

<div>{{TOC limit|2}}</div>

== Get an account ==

The CSDMS HPCC is freely available to the CSDMS community.
However, there are a few steps required to obtain an account.

If you run into any problems completing these steps,
let us know at the [https://csdms.github.io/help-desk CSDMS Help Desk].

=== Step 1 ===

If you're not already one, become a [https://csdms.colorado.edu/wiki/Special:RequestAccount CSDMS member].

=== Step 2 ===

Make an [https://identity.access-ci.org/new-user ACCESS account].
[https://access-ci.org/about/ ACCESS] is the Advanced Cyberinfrastructure Coordination Ecosystem: Services & Support program, funded by National Science Foundation to support research cyberinfrastructure in the U.S.

''Note: If you already have an XSEDE/ACCESS account, or a CU IdentiKey, skip this step and proceed to Step 3.''

=== Step 3 ===

Send an email to [mailto:csdms@colorado.edu csdms@colorado.edu] with the following information:
* your first and last name
* your email address (institutional address preferred, if available)
* your CSDMS username
* a short (one or two sentence) description of how you plan to use your account

=== Step 4 ===

Send an email to [mailto:rc-help@colorado.edu rc-help@colorado.edu] with the following information:
* your first and last name
* your email address
* your ACCESS/XSEDE username, or your CU IdentiKey
* if available, your institutional affiliation, department, and role (e.g., undergraduate, graduate student, postdoc, staff, instructor, or faculty)

In the email, please state that you are a CSDMS member and you wish to access the CSDMS compute nodes on Blanca.

CURC will communicate with CSDMS to approve your Blanca login.

== Documentation ==

* [https://curc.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ Research Computing User Guide]
* [https://curc.readthedocs.io/en/latest/clusters/blanca/blanca.html Blanca]

== Hardware ==

Each Blanca compute node has:
* 2x 14-core 2.4 GHz Intel “Broadwell” processors
* 128 GB RAM at 2400 MHz
* 1x 1 TB 7200 RPM hard drive
* 10 gigabit/s Ethernet
As of {{#time: Y-m-d|now}}, four compute nodes are available in the CSDMS HPCC.
In addition to these reserved nodes, CSDMS members have access, depending on current usage, to the other compute nodes in the Blanca cluster.
See the [https://curc.readthedocs.io/en/latest/clusters/blanca/blanca.html Blanca documentation] for details.

== Software ==

[https://curc.readthedocs.io/en/latest/compute/modules.html Modules] are used on Blanca to load software into a user environment.
CURC also provides support for installing custom or third-party software.
Help requests should be sent to [mailto:rc-help@colorado.edu rc-help@colorado.edu].

== Logging in ==

See the [https://curc.readthedocs.io/en/latest/open_ondemand/index.html instructions] from CURC on logging in to Blanca through their Open OnDemand portal as an RMACC user.

== Running jobs ==

CURC provides information on [https://curc.readthedocs.io/en/latest/running-jobs/batch-jobs.html submitting and running jobs] on Blanca, either interactively or through batch process.

== Getting help ==

Email [mailto:rc-help@colorado.edu rc-help@colorado.edu] if you have problems connecting to or working on Blanca.

{{PageTitle|The Earth Surface Processes Institute}}

The Earth Surface Processes Institute (ESPIn) is a week-long immersive training experience for 25 early career scientists, including graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, researchers, and faculty.
ESPIn is designed to help participants advance their research in earth and planetary surface processes
by teaching skills in numerical modeling; in modern, collaborative, scientific software development;
and in the use of open source community cyberinfrastructure.
A mix of experienced scientists, visiting faculty, and research software engineers provide instruction.

<span style="color: forestgreen; font-weight: bold">ESPIn is a combination of learning and doing.<span>

[[File:ESPIn2025GroupPhoto.jpg|frame|500px|alt=ESPIn 2025 group photo|ESPIn 2025: learning and doing!]]



ESPIn uses the [https://github.com/csdms/ivy CSDMS Ivy] course material, with topics including:

* Project Jupyter
* Introduction to the Shell
* Text Editors and Development Environments
* Python Distributions and Package Management
* Virtual Environments
* Introduction to Version Control with Git and GitHub
* Python for Modeling
* Landlab
* CSDMS Data Components
* The Basic Model Interface
* The Permamodel Toolkit
* The Python Modeling Tool (pymt)
* Best Practices in Scientific Software Development

ESPIn kicks off with a ''big ideas, mini poster'' session:
participants create a poster from two sheets of paper, one with research interests, the other with personal interests.
This session helps participants introduce themselves and find shared interests.

ESPIn isn't just about instruction.
Daily time blocks are dedicated to working in small, self-organized teams on a research, data analysis, and coding project.
Participants can also work on developing and advancing their own research.
Get a taste of past ESPIn team projects by checking out their [[Webinars|webinars]] and [[Labs portal|labs]].

ESPIn includes dedicated time for peer-to-peer networking, and professional development,
including a career panel.

ESPIn concludes with team project presentations, which set up participants to continue to develop ideas.

|CSDMS meeting abstract presentation=Do you have code that you'd like to share with others—maybe you've written a model for your thesis, or perhaps you're required to do so by a journal—but you're not sure of the best way to go about it? We'll try to address this problem in this clinic. We'll use Python because it's the standard language of CSDMS; however, much of what we show can be translated to other languages.

This clinic has two parts. First, we'll show how to properly package Python code so that it can easily be used by others. Second, we'll configure a GitHub repository with files and services that will help make the code FAIR and sustainable over time—a "community-ready" repository.

The following topics address what could be included in such a repository. While we probably won't be able to cover all of these in the clinic, we list them for reference.

* Writing an informative README (and adding status badges!)
* Choosing a software license
* Packaging, using guidance from the Python Packaging Authority (PyPA)
* Automating repository tasks with nox
* Linting with black, flake8, and pre-commit
* Unit testing with pytest
* Continuous integration with GitHub Actions
* Building documentation with sphinx
* Adding a Digital Object Identifier (DOI) with Zenodo
* Creating a citation file with cffinit
* Including instructions for contributors, and a code of conduct

We'll try to address this problem in this clinic. We'll use Python because it's the standard language of CSDMS. Much of what we show, however, can be translated to other languages.

This clinic has two parts. First, we'll show how to properly package Python code so that it can easily be used by others. Second, we'll configure a GitHub repository with files and services that will help make the code FAIR and sustainable over time—a "community-ready" repository.

The following topics address what could be included in such a repository. While we probably won't be able to cover all of these in the clinic, we list them for reference.

* Writing an informative README (and adding status badges!)
* Choosing a software license
* Packaging, using guidance from the Python Packaging Authority (PyPA)
* Automating repository tasks with nox
* Linting with black, flake8, and pre-commit
* Unit testing with pytest
* Continuous integration with GitHub Actions
* Building documentation with sphinx
* Adding a Digital Object Identifier (DOI) with Zenodo
* Creating a citation file with cffinit
* Including instructions for contributors, and a code of conduct
* Crediting contributors

==BMI and componentization==

* [[Instructions_for_adding_a_BMI_to_a_model|Instructions]] for adding a BMI to a model
* [[Turning a model into a CSDMS component]]

==pymt==

''pymt'' is the Python Modeling Toolkit.

* The pymt landing page: https://csdms.github.io/pymt
* The pymt page on the CSDMS wiki: [[PyMT]]
* pymt documentation: https://pymt.readthedocs.io
* The pymt source on GitHub: https://github.com/csdms/pymt

==CSDMS JupyterHub==

[[File:OpenEarthscape logo.png|thumb|The OpenEarthscape logo]]

* [[JupyterHub]]
* [[JupyterHubSignUp]] and [[JupyterHubGitHubSignUp]]
* [[JupyterHubUploadDownload]]

==Dakota==

I've set up a [[Dakota|wiki page]] for all things Dakota.

Individual pages:

* [[Dakotathon|Dakotathon]] wiki page
* The CSDMS model page for [[Model:Dakotathon|Dakotathon]]
* [[Configuring Dakota on beach]]
* [[Using Dakota on beach]]
* [[Building_Dakota_on_Ubuntu_12.04_LTS|Building Dakota on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS]]

There is a tool that is similar in concept to the CSDMS Dakota interface: https://github.com/wisdem/pyDAKOTA,
but it's a bit different in what it provides.

==PBS==

The Permafrost Benchmark System.

* Main page: https://permamodel.github.io/pbs/
* DOI: [https://zenodo.org/record/1410622#.W5GKh379kVw 10.5281/zenodo.1410621]
* [[PbsExecutorSiwenna|PBS executor on siwenna]]
* [[PbsServerDiluvium|PBS server on diluvium]]
* [[PbsClientDiluvium|PBS client on diluvium]]

==WMT==

The CSDMS Web Modeling Tool (WMT) can be found at https://csdms.colorado.edu/wmt.

General information:

* The [[CSDMS_Web_Modeling_Tool|CSDMS Web Modeling Tool]]
* The WMT 1.0 release [[WMT_1.0_release|announcement]]
* The WMT 1.1 release [[WMT_1.1_release|announcement]]

Using WMT:

* [[WMT_help|WMT Help]]
* [[WMT_tutorial|WMT Tutorial]]

Developer notes for installing and configuring WMT:

* [[Installing_a_WMT_executor|Installing a WMT executor]]
** [[TestingExecutorSiwenna|wmt-testing executor on siwenna]]
** [[PermafrostExecutorSiwenna|wmt-permafrost executor on siwenna]]

* Installing a WMT client
** [[Build and deploy a WMT client]]
* [[Uncategorized WMT developer notes]]

Like Roger Zelazny's Amber, siwenna is the one true site of the WMT executors. All others are but shadows.

WMT source code:

* [https://github.com/csdms/wmt-client wmt-client]
* [https://github.com/csdms/wmt wmt-server]
* [https://github.com/csdms/wmt-exe wmt-executor]

We're using "WMT" and "PyMT", by analogy with NumPy and SciPy (but not Astropy).
Eric and I were thinking earlier that we should use "wMT" and "pyMT" to emphasize that they're modeling tools.

== MediaWiki and the Ask API ==

* Albert has written an [[Web APIs|article]] summarizing all the APIs available on the CSDMS wiki
* Main page navbar entries are here: [[MediaWiki:Sidebar]]
** An idea for a reorg of the menu: [[NewWikiMenu]]
* An [[Querying_the_CSDMS_model_repository|article]] on using the Ask API to access model metadata from the CSDMS wiki
* A [[Examples_of_querying_the_CSDMS_model_repository|table]] of Ask API examples
* An [[Mpiper_member_count_example|example]] of counting and listing all CSDMS members
* I've had to look up how to [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Signatures add a signature] about 10 times already
* [[DeprecatedPageMessage|Text]] I can use on deprecated pages
* A landing page for the CSDMS [[Workbench]], and a page for improving it: [[TmpWorkbench]]
* A landing page for the [[Babelizer]]
* A template for launching a model on EarthscapeHub: [[Template:LaunchModel]]
** Use the template in a page: <nowiki>{{LaunchModel|model=terrainbento|link=https://rei.com}}</nowiki>

{{LaunchModel|model=terrainbento|link=https://rei.com}}

Mpiper: Link to CSDMS Workbench page

{{PageTitle|What is CSDMS about?}}
<br><center>{{#widget:YouTube|id=A0EBXz1-0mY}}<br>A brief introduction of how your research can benefit from CSDMS</center><br><br><br>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-sm-8">The Community Surface Dynamics Modeling System (CSDMS) deals with the Earth's surface - the ever-changing, dynamic interface between lithosphere, hydrosphere, cryosphere, and atmosphere. We are a diverse community of experts promoting the modeling of earth surface processes by developing, supporting, and disseminating integrated software modules that predict the movement of fluids, and the flux (production, erosion, transport, and deposition) of sediment and solutes in landscapes and their sedimentary basins.</div><div class="col-sm-4">[[Image: CSDMS-logo-color-notagline-ver_high.png|center|200px]]</div></div>

'''CSDMS:'''
* Produces protocols for community-generated, continuously evolving, open software
* Distributes software tools and models
* Provides cyber-infrastructure to promote the quantitative modeling of earth surface processes
* Addresses the challenging problems of surface-dynamic systems: self-organization, localization, thresholds, strong linkages, scale invariance, and interwoven biology & geochemistry
* Enables the rapid development and application of linked dynamic models tailored to specific landscape basin evolution (LBE) problems at specific temporal and spatial scales
* Partners with related computational and scientific programs to eliminate duplication of effort and to provide an intellectually stimulating environment
* Supports a strong linkage between what is predicted by CSDMS codes and what is observed, both in nature and in physical experiments
*Supports the imperatives in Earth Science research:
:# discovery, use, and conservation of natural resources;
:# characterization and mitigation of natural hazards;
:# geotechnical support of commercial and infrastructure development;
:# stewardship of the environment; and
:# terrestrial surveillance for global security.

There is a tool that is similar in concept to the CSDMS Dakota interface: https://github.com/wisdem/pyDAKOTA,
but it's a bit different in what it provides.

==PBS==

The Permafrost Benchmark System.

Like Roger Zelazny's Amber, siwenna is the one true site of the WMT executors. All others are but shadows.

WMT source code:

* [https://github.com/csdms/wmt-client wmt-client]
* [https://github.com/csdms/wmt wmt-server]
* [https://github.com/csdms/wmt-exe wmt-executor]

We're using "WMT" and "PyMT", by analogy with NumPy and SciPy (but not Astropy).
Eric and I were thinking earlier that we should use "wMT" and "pyMT" to emphasize that they're modeling tools.

at Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge, LA.

Mpiper: Set RS6

{{PageTitle|CSDMS Roadshow}}

Would you like to learn more about

* making a model in Landlab
* best practices in writing code for your research
* using GitHub to store and safeguard your work

but you don't have the time or money to visit CSDMS in Boulder
for the [[Meetings|Annual Meeting]], [[ESPIn]], or [[Training|training]]?

Then let CSDMS come to you with the '''CSDMS Roadshow'''!

== The idea ==

In a Roadshow,
CSDMS research software engineers (RSEs) visit your group, lab, or department
and present one to three days of interactive instruction.
Lessons are drawn from the [https://github.com/csdms/ivy CSDMS Ivy] course material,
which includes information on shell, Python, git, conda, Landlab, BMI, pymt, and best practices in scientific software development.
The Roadshow also includes a brief overview of CSDMS,
focusing on the resources we provide for students and early-career researchers.

Our goal is to reach people with the CSDMS message of open source software development
in support of research in earth and planetary surface processes.

== The plan ==

The only equipment needed for a CSDMS Roadshow:
* a classroom or conference room,
* a projector, and
* an internet connection.

Participants should bring a laptop with a web browser and an internet connection to work on the interactive Jupyter Notebook lessons.
All course material is run on [[JupyterHub|EarthscapeHub]].

A sample agenda for one to three days of instruction is given in Table 1 below.

{| class="wikitable" style="width: 60%; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"
|+ Table 1. Sample topics for a CSDMS Roadshow.

__NOTOC__

{{PageTitle|The Earth Surface Processes Institute}}

The Earth Surface Processes Institute (ESPIn) is a week-long immersive training experience for 25 early career scientists, including graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, researchers, and faculty.
ESPIn is designed to help participants advance their research in earth and planetary surface processes
by teaching skills in numerical modeling; in modern, collaborative, scientific software development;
and in the use of open source community cyberinfrastructure.
A mix of experienced scientists, visiting faculty, and research software engineers provide instruction.

<span style="color: forestgreen; font-weight: bold">ESPIn is a combination of learning and doing.<span>

[[File:ESPIn2025GroupPhoto.jpg|frame|500px|alt=ESPIn 2025 group photo|ESPIn 2025: learning and doing!]]



ESPIn uses the [https://github.com/csdms/ivy CSDMS Ivy] course material, with topics including:

* Project Jupyter
* Introduction to the Shell
* Text Editors and Development Environments
* Python Distributions and Package Management
* Virtual Environments
* Introduction to Version Control with Git and GitHub
* Python for Modeling
* Landlab
* CSDMS Data Components
* The Basic Model Interface
* The Permamodel Toolkit
* The Python Modeling Tool (pymt)
* Best Practices in Scientific Software Development

ESPIn kicks off with a ''big ideas, mini poster'' session:
participants create a poster from two sheets of paper, one with research interests, the other with personal interests.
This session helps participants introduce themselves and find shared interests.

ESPIn isn't just about instruction.
Daily time blocks are dedicated to working in small, self-organized teams on a research, data analysis, and coding project.
Participants can also work on developing and advancing their own research.
Get a taste of past ESPIn team projects by checking out their [[Webinars|webinars]] and [[Labs portal|labs]].

ESPIn includes dedicated time for peer-to-peer networking, and professional development,
including a career panel.

ESPIn concludes with team project presentations, which set up participants to continue to develop ideas.

{{PageTitle|EarthscapeHub}}

<div class=AutoScaleImage>[[ File:oes-logo.png | What is OpenEarthscape? | 400 px | right | link=https://csdms.colorado.edu/wiki/OpenEarthscape ]]<div>



Through the NSF-funded [[OpenEarthscape]] project,
CSDMS operates three [https://jupyter.org/hub JupyterHubs]:

# [https://jupyter.openearthscape.org jupyter.openearthscape.org]
# [https://explore.openearthscape.org explore.openearthscape.org]
# [https://frontier.openearthscape.org frontier.openearthscape.org] (on standby by default; see below)

Together, they form ''EarthscapeHub''.
Each Hub is hosted on the commercial cloud through the NSF [https://www.cloudbank.org/ CloudBank] program.
Each is free and available for use by all CSDMS members, whether you're an undergraduate, grad student, postdoc, researcher, or faculty.

What can you do with EarthscapeHub? Here are a few ideas:

* Prototype and test Python code for a model
* Run a model through [[Landlab]] or [[PyMT|pymt]]
* Create a notebook for a journal article
* Teach a class at a university
* Lead an interactive workshop at a conference
* Work on a course assignment
* Run a lab from the [[Labs portal|CSDMS EKT repository]]
* Highlight your research in a notebook and share it with others in the community
* Explore a parameter space with multiple simultaneous model runs
* Access a Linux OS and shell in the cloud

The roles of these JupyterHubs---''jupyter'', ''explore'', and ''frontier''---as well as sign up and sign in instructions for each, are given in the sections below.

= jupyter =

This is the primary JupyterHub for use by all CSDMS members.
It's a place to work and experiment.
It includes [[Workbench|CSDMS Workbench]] elements such as [[Landlab]], [[PyMT|pymt]], and [[DataComponents|data components]].
Labs from the [[Labs portal|CSDMS EKT repository]] can be run on this Hub.
Use this Hub to design, prototype, and test model code before production runs on the ''frontier'' Hub.

This Hub uses GitHub as a login service.
Please see [[JupyterHubGitHubSignUp|these instructions]] to sign up and sign in.

Note that the login for this Hub is separate from the login for the ''explore'' Hub.
There is no expiration date for a login on this Hub.

= explore =

This JupyterHub is used for teaching; e.g., university classes or interactive workshops at a conference.
It's used for teaching and collaborative work in [[ESPIn]].
Like ''jupyter'', it's a place to work, experiment, and learn.
It includes [[Workbench|CSDMS Workbench]] elements such as [[Landlab]], [[PyMT|pymt]], and [[DataComponents|data components]].
Labs from the [[Labs portal|CSDMS EKT repository]] can also be run on this Hub.

A username (typically an institutional email address) and password are required to login to this Hub.
If you'd like to teach a class or lead a workshop using ''explore'',
please contact us through the [https://csdms.github.io/help-desk CSDMS Help Desk],
or email us at [mailto:csdms@colorado.edu csdms@colorado.edu].
We can help install software and create logins for the participants in your class or workshop.

Note that the login for this Hub is separate from the login for the ''jupyter'' Hub.
Non-instructor logins that are inactive for more than a year will be removed.

= frontier =

On ''frontier'', work with a CSDMS RSE to set up a powerful computational resource in the cloud,
occupying a middle ground between a personal computer and an HPC.
This Hub is ideal, for example, for exploring a parameter space with multiple simultaneous model runs.
Access to ''frontier'' is limited to a few users at a time,
allowing them to take maximum advantage of its compute power.
To save energy, we keep this Hub powered down by default,
only turning it on when requested by a user.

If you have an idea for a project that you'd like to run on ''frontier'',
please contact us through the [https://github.com/csdms/help-desk/issues/new?assignees=mdpiper&labels=jupyterhub&template=access-frontier-hub.md&title=Access+the+frontier+JupyterHub CSDMS Help Desk].
We can help you get set up.
Bear in mind you may have to think about a [https://hpc-wiki.info/hpc/Scaling scaling plan] for your project;
e.g., how many processors, how much memory, how much run time, how much disk space you will use.

= common features =

The ''jupyter'', ''explore'', and ''frontier'' Hubs share some common features described below.

== user interface ==

The default user interface on all Hubs is the flexible and configurable [https://jupyter.org/ JupyterLab].
If you haven't used JupyterLab before, there's ample [https://jupyterlab.readthedocs.io documentation].

== default files ==

On each Hub, a welcome notebook and pair of directories are included by default in your home directory.
The directories are:

* ''data'': A read-only directory for storing and sharing data
* ''scratch'': A read-write directory for sharing code, notebooks, or other files with other users

Files that remain in ''scratch'' longer than 90 days may be deleted.
If you'd like to add files to the ''data'' directory,
please contact us through the [https://csdms.github.io/help-desk CSDMS Help Desk].
We've also created a brief tutorial on [[JupyterHubUploadDownload|uploading and downloading files]] to/from a JupyterHub.

== software ==

These Hubs use Jupyter [https://docs.jupyter.org/en/latest/projects/kernels.html kernels]
mapped to [https://docs.conda.io conda] environments to group software.
The default kernel is called ''Python 3''.
It contains a minimal set of software packages.
To explore with CSDMS models and tools,
including [[Landlab]] and [[PyMT|pymt]],
select the ''CSDMS'' kernel.
The core packages installed in the ''CSDMS'' kernel are listed in [https://github.com/csdms/jupyterhub-management/blob/main/environments/csdms.yaml this conda environment file].

On the ''jupyter'' and ''frontier'' Hub instances,
there's also a kernel called ''Develop'' that contains a host of development tools for writing software,
including the GNU toolchain, CMake, conda compilers, and all the dependencies needed to build a Landlab component.
The core packages installed in the ''Develop'' kernel are listed in [https://github.com/csdms/jupyterhub-management/blob/main/environments/develop.yaml this conda environment file].
It's like having your own Linux development machine in the cloud!

If you'd like new software installed on a Hub (e.g., for a class or a workshop),
please contact us through the [https://csdms.github.io/help-desk CSDMS Help Desk].

= system maintenance =

The ''explore'', ''jupyter'', and ''frontier'' Hubs will be offline for maintenance and software updates a few days per year,
usually at the beginning of June and the end of December.
The Hubs *may* also be offline for maintenance on Sundays between 9:30 and 10:00 AM Mountain Time.
If people are using the Hubs around these times,
we'll work with them to minimize disruption.

If you encounter a problem using EarthscapeHub,
please contact us through the [https://csdms.github.io/help-desk CSDMS Help Desk].
Or, if you're comfortable with GitHub,
log an issue directly in our [https://github.com/csdms/jupyterhub-management Hub management repository].
