Description

Underworld Project - Steering Committee
The Underworld geodynamics group, works on scientific problems, computational algorithms, and software for Earth and planetary dynamics. All of its work is released under open source licences so that anyone can recreate and build upon its outcome.

The group has a particular interest in understanding the long-term evolution of the Earth and helping people to run time-evolving models of plate and lithosphere scale geological problems.

The Underworld geodynamics code is a python-based, high-performance, parallel code that scales from laptops to supercomputers and also runs in the cloud.

This Steering Committee has a role to guide the Underworld development, as supported by Auscope.
