High Performance Computing in GGStrengths, Challenges, Future Directions

• Processing/inverting increasingly large datasets for -imaging crustal & mantle structure (Dunn, Moore, Wolfe)-locating/characterizing acoustic sources (Frazer, Duennebier ) -analyzing global altimetry/topography (Wessel)

• Simulating dynamical processes in expanding volumes, at finer resolution, & with stronger heterogeneity:-dynamics of mantle & lithosphere (Ito, Conrad-probably)-crustal deformation & faulting (Martel)-watershed processes & contaminant transport (El-Kadi)
