The objectives of this applied course is to provide the theoretical and technical context of terrestrial modeling in HPC-High-Performance Computing environments utilizing stand-alone and coupled hydrologic, land surface and atmospheric models.
The hackathon, a get-together design event of software development, brings together the present scientific expertise to show sustainable futures for Africa’s food production based on its soil capital.
