Description

The ENES Data Space delivers an open, scalable and cloud-enabled data science environment for climate data analysis on top of the EOSC Compute Platform. It provides access to a set of specific CMIP variable-centric collections to support meteorological and industrial researchers in realistic climate model analysis experiments. Data is downloaded and kept in sync with the ESGF federated data archive.

This webinar will provide a general overview of the ENES Data Space service and its main features. In addition, the Synda command line tool used to explore, download and place files within the adequat directories from the ESGF archive will be introduced.

Moreover, the webinar will include a tutorial on how to join the ENES Data Space service and a short demo for the participants to get started with the data analysis and visualization features.

Fabrizio Antonio was awarded a Master’s Degree with first-class honors in Computer Engineering from the University of Salento, Faculty of Engineering, in April 2016, with a thesis on High Performance Computing and Big Data. In May 2016, he joined the Advanced Scientific Computing (ASC) Division of CMCC. Since 2019, he has been contributing to the Dashboard Working Team in the context of the Earth System Grid Federation. He is also currently involved in some European Open Science Cloud projects, like EOSC-Pillar and EGI-ACE, as well as in the IS-ENES3 project.

His research activities focus on parallel, distributed and cloud computing and, in particular, on distributed data management and high-performance big data analytics and mining for eScience in the context of climate change.

Atef Ben Nasser is a research engineer working on climate data management within the ESPRI team at CNRS-IPSL since 2015. With a background in software engineering, he contributes to the development and enhancement of data publication and replication tools and the automatization of the climate simulation data publication chain, as well as the support of various actors within the community to better use the existing tools. He is a key developer of the ESGF community and a member of the ES-DOC technical committee.
