SPAC Training Day 2

SPAC Training Day 2

Acquisition and processing of ambient noise data for SPAC

Please be sure to RSVP if you plan to attend the training! A confirmation email with the Zoom link will be sent to you. If you are unable to attend in real time but would like a link to the recording, please RSVP that you are not able to attend and we will send you a link to the recording. All attendees will also be provided a link to the training once completed.

Before the training begins, please download the codes and sample data from Dr. Surya Pachhai’s github repository. There are also many references in the handbook included in this git repository. In order to download, these files, you will need to open a terminal then type git clone https://gitfront.io/r/user-3200264/x1pecp9T5TKV/Bayesian-Inversion-of-SPAC-gitfront.git
