=Objectives and general description=
The CSDMS 2017 annual meeting will focus on “Modeling Coupled Earth and Human Systems”. Topics of interests also include modeling research that integrate different disciplines, different scales, and the synergy between models and Human Systems. As in past meetings, keynote speakers are by invitation only, and poster presentations are the general media.
The meeting will include:
# ''State-of-the art keynote presentations'' in earth-surface dynamics and modeling
# ''Hands-on clinics'' related to community models, tools and approaches
# ''Transformative software products and approaches'' designed to be accessible, easy to use, and relevant
# ''Breakout sessions for Working, Focus Research Groups and the Initiatives''
# ''Poster Sessions''
and more!<br><br>
''Poster Information'': The poster boards are configured for 4' wide by 6' tall (portrait orientation) posters. The deadline to submit abstracts is April 1, 2017.<br><br>

=Reimbursement =
[[File:CSDMSmeeting2017.png|350px|right]]
Within its budget, CSDMS intends to support member applicants to attend the annual meeting. Towards this goal, we encourage members to fully or partially cover their expenses if capable. We additionally thank those in the industry and agency fields for understanding that 1) we cannot compensate federal agency participants since our own funding is from NSF, and 2) we request that our industrial/ corporate participants cover their own costs thereby allowing more academic participants to attend. 
 
To the extent possible, CSDMS intends to reimburse the registration fee, lodging (shared rooms at 100% and single rooms at 50% at conference hotels), and a limited amount of travel expenses for qualified registrants - those members who will attend all three days of the meeting and are not industry or federal employees.
 
'''Important for foreign travelers requesting reimbursement:''' If you need a visa to travel to USA, select a business visa.  If you need an invitation letter, please email [mailto:csdms@colorado.edu csdms@colorado.edu]  as soon as possible. Also indicate whether specific wording is required in the letter. Second, we will need to copy the entry stamp in your passport sometime during the meeting as proof that you were here on business as required by US tax laws for reimbursement (especially when dealing with airfare.) We are only able to provide reimbursement for airfare within the U.S. All airfare that is being reimbursed must be for airlines that are U.S. flag carriers. 
<br><br>
 
=Travel, Lodging and Conference Center Information=
The meeting will be held at [http://www.colorado.edu/supportcu/sustainability-energy-and-environment-complex/find-us SEEC]<br>
Hotel: [http://www.millenniumhotels.com/usa/millenniumboulder/  Millennium Harvest House Hotel] <br>
Transportation:
You can book transportation between DIA and Boulder here: [http://greenrideco3.hudsonltd.net/res?USERIDENTRY=CSDMS&LOGON=GO Green Ride Boulder]. And information on how to find [[Media:Counter_location_Verbiage_from_Customs.pdf|Green Ride Boulder at DIA]].<br>
We will provide a bus between the hotels and the meeting venue each day. We will also provide transportation to the banquet.
<br><br>
 
=Pre-conference one-day Software Carpentry bootcamp=
<div style="float:right;">[[File:Boots.gif | 200px ]]</div>CSDMS will host a Pre-conference one-day [http://software-carpentry.org/ Software Carpentry bootcamp] on Monday May 22<sup>th</sup>, 2017. The objective is to teach basic programming skills that will be useful for scientific computing and model development. This is an intensive, hands-on workshop, during which certified instructors will cover basic elements of:
# the Unix bash shell,
# Python programming and NumPy, and
# Github for version control.
Our instructors are earth scientists and have familiarity with the CSDMS framework, such that lessons and examples will be targeted toward relevant problems in your field. The bootcamp intentionally precedes the CSDMS meeting, so the skills participants develop should be useful in the clinics during the meeting.
 
'''Note:'''
* Registration is open till April 1<sup>st</sup> (or until program fill) and is handled through the 2017 meeting site.<br>
* The bootcamp is capped at 30 participants (first paid first serve), and it has a $30 registration fee.
* Participant will be responsible for cost / organization of their extra day of hotel accommodation and dinner. Costs will not be reimbursed.
* We will cover coffee and lunch during the bootcamp.
