The September 8, 2024 Community Stress Drop Validation workshop was a tutorial for early career researchers who want to measure, or use measurements of, earthquake stress drop. It was held in-person at the Hilton Palm Springs, 8am - 12 noon. The overall aim of this early-career workshop was to showcase and demonstrate different methods for estimating stress drop with two broad aims: to enable those wanting to measure earthquake source parameters to learn state-of-the-art practice, AND to provide the necessary understanding for informed use of these measurements by those wanting to include them in their own research. The majority of the 27 attendees were early career students and postdocs looking to learn more about the mechanics of stress drop estimation and uses and applications of the estimates.
