JASMIN

The JASMIN platform is the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC)'s compute service.

The start of JASMIN's documentation is here: https://help.jasmin.ac.uk/category/158-getting-started

To access it, you must sign up for an account following the instructions here: https://help.jasmin.ac.uk/article/4435-get-a-jasmin-account

In the 'What will you be using JASMIN for' box, put something along the lines of: Environmental data analysis tasks forming part of my MRes training in the Artificial Intelligence for Environmental Risk (AI4ER, https://ai4er-cdt.esc.cam.ac.uk/) Centre for Doctoral Training hosted at the University of Cambridge and the British Antarctic Survey.

Once you've confirmed your email address, you'll be asked for some account details, including an SSH Public Key. If you're not sure about this, see here: https://help.jasmin.ac.uk/article/185-generate-ssh-key-pair . If using MobaXterm on Windows, first choose a persistent home directory in Settings/ Configuration / General for MobaXterm.

After you have access to JASMIN, you'll want to request access to a few additional services to access their Jupyter Notebook service. Follow instructions here: https://help.jasmin.ac.uk/article/4851-jasmin-notebook-service

The approval process can take a couple of days.

Once you have a JASMIN account you can apply to access our 10TB Group Work Space (GWS) shared volume here: https://accounts.jasmin.ac.uk/services/group_workspaces/ai4er/

To submit python scripts to the batch cluster (LOTUS) this might be useful: http://gws-access.jasmin.ac.uk/public/bas_climate/files/scott/pybsub.py
