We run a 1 degree FC compset, FC5AV1C-L, simulation for 6 years and create 5-year (year 2 to 6) climatologies from it. We plot climatologies vs observations and vs default configuration. The default configuration consists of default hydrostatic dycore with default settings. Preliminary runs are described in /wiki/spaces/COM/pages/780664997 (with preqx dycore) and in /wiki/spaces/COM/pages/941096965 (with theta dycore), each relevant run also has entry for its climatologies.
There we produced runs with SL transport and theta-l dycore (hydrostatic only). Run1 there With theta dycore, we only explore hydrostatic option for now. In Theta-l and SL coupled, 1 degree, anvil , Run1 contains parameters for theta+SL, but uses default settings for topography divergence damping. Run 20 is more optimal than Run 1 wrt divergence damping and number of HV sub cycles. We will produce 1 more simulation, with the same divergence and HV parameters as in Run 20, but with more optimal TOM dissipation. This last run is expected to be if not the final configuration than very close to it. We will have model vs model climatologies for it.

SL transport was first evaluated in the preqx dycore using the E3SM v1 atmosphere at 1 degree. Results and some technical details are presented in /wiki/spaces/COM/pages/916324466 . The SL transport was shown to be 6x faster.

We ran FC5AV1C-L for 6 years with preqx dycore and SL transport and made 5-year climatologies. With diagnostics package, we compared climatologies of the new run to the default (preqx dycore, Eulerian transport, default E3SM settings) run from the same compset. Results are in https://portal.nersc.gov/project/acme/onguba/sl/sl-fastest.2369911-latlon-vs-f2/viewer/latitude-longitude/index.html for latlon plots and in https://portal.nersc.gov/project/acme/onguba/sl/sl-fastest.2369911-zonal-vs-f2/viewer/pressure-latitude/index.html for zonal plots. Our understanding from communicating with C. Golaz is that differences are relatively minor and are expected.
