  Changing? A 21-Year Climatology Testing Synoptic vs. Thermal Drivers of C
 oastal Sea Breeze Behavior\n\nBy Ben Tobin\n\nDescription: Motivated by pe
 rceived changes in sea breeze behavior near Tallahassee and observed incre
 asing coastal sea surface temperatures\, and its relevance to coastal deve
 lopment\, this project builds a 21-year climatology (2002–2022) of sea b
 reeze fronts across Florida to test whether those changes occur for broad 
 regions of Florida. This goal necessitated the development of a technique 
 to track sea breezes. Two parallel investigations explore the relative rol
 es of synoptic wind versus land-sea thermal gradient in driving day-to-day
  sea breeze behavior.\n\n\nAccessing Open-Source Large Language Models on 
 Skynet with Python\n\nBy Brendon Gutierrez\n\nDescription: This talk will 
 demonstrate how COAPS members can access and interact with open-source lar
 ge language models hosted on Skynet. A dedicated Skynet node equipped with
  an NVIDIA A100 GPU has been configured to run an LLM continuously\, provi
 ding a shared inference service for the community. We will introduce the P
 ython API for connecting to the service\, submitting prompts\, and incorpo
 rating model responses into scripts\, notebooks\, and research workflows. 
 The session will include practical examples and guidance for getting start
 ed. The service is currently configured to run a Gemma 4 model\, although 
 the underlying model may evolve as the platform is updated. No prior exper
 ience with deploying or managing large language models is required.\n\nNOT
 E: Please feel free to forward/share this invitation with other groups/dis
 ciplines that might be interested in this talk/topic. All are welcome to a
 ttend.\n
