Open Source Tools for the Earth & Space Sciences: Breaking Discipline Silos to Accelerate Discovery
Open Source Tools for the Earth & Space Sciences: Breaking Discipline Silos to Accelerate Discovery
Session ID#: 282486
Session Description:
Despite being a cornerstone of modern scientific research, open-source software development and adoption often remain siloed within individual disciplines. A package or workflow designed for one discipline may elegantly solve problems in another. This session invites contributors and users of open-source scientific software from across the full breadth of AGU — from Earth's deep interior to its surface, oceans, ecosystems, and beyond into space — to share tools, workflows, and lessons learned.
We welcome presentations on software that enables reproducible science, supports FAIR data principles, or integrates AI/ML approaches to accelerate discovery. A central goal is cross-disciplinary exchange: exposing the community to tools they may not encounter within their own discipline and fostering new collaborations. Submissions may address software design, community governance, interoperability with existing infrastructure, cross-disciplinary reuse, AI and LLMs, or the challenges of sustaining open-source projects. We aim to build a more connected and open science software ecosystem.
