The course utilized the [CryoCloud JupyterHub](https://book.cryointhecloud.com/intro.html), which is maintained through a structured partnership between organizers from the NASA Cryosphere community and the International Interactive Computing Collaboration (2i2c) team. Forty one participants from 89 applicants attended the event, including 10 who traveled from abroad. Each day was divided into science lectures, coding tutorials, and group project work. Every evening included a social event: a Bob Ross Paint Night, a “fireside chat” with NASA Program Managers, a local crab feast at Patapsco State Park, Nerd Nite ("talent" show), and PACE Trivia. We hacked on many interesting science questions, such as detecting anomalies in PACE hyperspectral remote sensing reflectance signals, studying relationships between aerosol and surface ocean properties impacted by wildfires and smoke plumes, and studying biological and physical characteristics of a Gulf Stream eddy using both PACE and SWOT data.

This workshop focuses on the SWOT Hydrology datasets including river and lake vector data in shapefiles, and raster, pixel cloud, and pixel vector data in netCDF. In this pre-meeting workshop hosted by the Physical Oceanography Distributed Active Archive Center (PO.DAAC) for the AGU Chapman: Remote Sensing of the Water Cycle Conference, participants are introduced to SWOT and the various ways to access and utilize its data products, including via cloud computing, local download, and data transformation tools. +## 2024 Champions Cohort + +**** + +The 2024 NASA Champions cohort focused on data strategies for when to use cloud, coding strategies for parallelization, & first examples of big science in the Cloud. From April-May 2024, the NASA Mentors who span 11 Distributed Active Archive Centers (DAACs) co-led the third Champions Cohort with the NASA Openscapes project team, this year focusing on, teaching lessons they adapted for geospatial and cloud analysis. The Cohort included 9 international research teams from academia and government that were curious about working with NASA Earthdata in the Cloud. Many teams were interested in using data from multiple DAACs. User cloud adaption takes time, given the new conceptual mindsets and technical skillsets it requires. During the ten weeks we worked together, NASA Mentors refined and extended previous lessons to focus on thinking through and planning the transition to using the Cloud for science research and applications, and initial experiments using the Cloud through our 2i2c JupyterHub.
