Supplementary material for "Strain Rates along the Alpine-Himalayan Belt from a Comprehensive GNSS Velocity Field"

Supplementary material for "Strain Rates along the Alpine-Himalayan Belt from a Comprehensive GNSS Velocity Field" Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth N. Castro-Perdomo et al., (2025) Corresponding author: N. Castro-Perdomo, [e-mail] The results and figures presented in our manuscript are fully reproducible. To replicate our analyses, run the Jupyter notebook JGR_Alpides_Supplements.ipynb included with this repository. Instructions: 1. Set up a Conda environment (optional but recommended) To manage dependencies and ensure reproducibility, we recommend creating a Conda environment using the provided environment.yml file. This step is optional if all required packages are already installed on your system. To create and activate the Conda environment, run: conda env create -f environment.yml conda activate alpides 2. Launch the Jupyter notebook Start the Jupyter notebook to reproduce the manuscript's results: jupyter notebook JGR_Alpides_Supplements.ipynb If alpides does not appear in the Jupyter notebook's kernel list, you can manually register it: python -m ipykernel install --user --name alpides --display-name "Python (alpides)" After registering the kernel, restart Jupyter Notebook to ensure the new kernel appears in the kernel list.
