Technical meritThis project is the organization and teaching of a five-day short course for graduate students and other early career scientists on the opportunities and challenges in the processing and analysis of much increased volumes of time series data. The primary goal is to inspire a new set of leaders who are more able to exploit the large volumes of data coming from the NSF's EarthScope program. The emphasis of the short course is on seismic data from USArray. The short course is held at Northwestern University in August of 2010 and builds upon and draws from an earlier short course on these themes, which was held in the summer of 2009. The PIs are designing and delivering the program in collaboration with USArray and IRIS and a small number of guest instructors. The course takes place in a computer laboratory in the main library of Northwestern University. The curriculum includes lectures followed by hands-on exercises, and finishes with student group projects carried out during the five days.Broader ImpactsThis project directly addresses issues of human infrastructure through workforce development. The top short-term goal of this project is training of the next generation of seismologists in 1) the use of the best current generation data analysis tools and 2) feeling empowered to further develop the tools currently available to the seismological community. This project represents a community-based approach to specialized educational content. We intend to collect and share the student projects through a student-designed and -maintained wiki. Course materials will be also organized and posted to the web in collaboration with the Education and Outreach Program of the Incorporated Research Institutions or Seismology.

该项目是为研究生和其他早期职业科学家组织和教授为期五天的短期课程，内容涉及处理和分析大量时间序列数据的机遇和挑战。主要目标是激励一批新的领导者，他们更有能力利用来自美国国家科学基金会“地球范围”项目的大量数据。短期课程的重点是来自USArray的地震数据。这个短期课程于2010年8月在西北大学举行，它是在2009年夏天举行的关于这些主题的早期短期课程的基础上建立和借鉴的。pi与USArray和IRIS以及少数客座讲师合作设计和交付该计划。本课程在西北大学主图书馆的计算机实验室进行。课程包括讲座，然后是实践练习，最后是为期五天的学生小组项目。更广泛的影响本项目通过劳动力发展直接解决人力基础设施问题。该项目的首要短期目标是培训下一代地震学家：1)使用当前最好的数据分析工具；2)感觉有能力进一步开发地震学界目前可用的工具。这个项目代表了以社区为基础的专业教育内容的方法。我们打算通过学生设计和维护的wiki来收集和分享学生的项目。课程材料也将与地震学联合研究机构的教育和推广计划合作，组织并发布到网上。
