ESIP: Community Fellowships

ESIP

The Federation of Earth Science Information Partners (ESIP) is an open networked community that brings together science, data and information technology practitioners around Earth science issues.

ESIP Community Fellows are graduate students interested in bridging the gap between informatics and Earth Science. This fellowship provides students a chance to work closely with professionals in an interdisciplinary, cross-sector group (ESIP collaboration area) on current Earth Science problems. Community fellows become engaged in ESIP collaboration areas as rapporteurs, documenting group activities on monthly telecons and at ESIP’s semi-annual meetings (Summer/Winter). Community Fellows will receive a stipend of $2000 plus travel expenses to two ESIP meetings.

Applications are due October 5, 2018. For the full details see the ESIP Student Opportunities page.

NetCDF Licensing Remains Unchanged:
Libraries are Open-Source and Freely-Available

Description

In May 2018, The HDF Group announced a new support strategy for the HDF5 libraries that are included in netCDF4. Because HDF5 libraries are needed by the netCDF4 libraries to create fully-featured netCDF files, the changes to The HDF group's support strategy have raised questions about netCDF's future path in the netCDF community.

Unidata and the netCDF team have been in close contact with The HDF Group since their announcement, and we reiterate our commitment to providing netCDF libraries that do not require any paid software licenses in order to create or read files that conform to the netCDF standard. Read on for details.
