v2 Scenarios

3:35-3:55

Discussion: what worked and didn’t work for v1

Susannah Burrows

  • What worked especially well during the v1 campaign, in terms of organization, process, communication, or technical approach?

  • Were there any problems that occurred during the v1 simulation, which we could potentially avoid next time by doing something differently?

  • Was the system for organizing the simulations useful (Simulation overview page, POC for each simulation, verification spreadsheet, approach to running diagnostic packages)?  Is there anything we might want to consider changing about this approach for the v2 campaign?

  • How was your experience with zstash?

  • Are there any new challenges we anticipate for the v2 campaign?

  • Any other comments / concerns?

3:55-4:15

Discussion: looking forward to v3

  • v3 will include atmospheric chemistry in the BGC configuration, and also coupling of GCAM surface emissions (e.g, CO2, BC/OC, SO2), which will open up new opportunities to examine feedbacks involving atmospheric constituents (greenhouse gases, aerosols, atmospheric oxidants)

  • Are there gaps in v3 process coupling (not yet being addressed)?

    • Coupling crops with GCAM and with atmospheric chemistry (NH3 emissions)?

    • Coupling fire model with BC/OC emissions?

    • Any other potential gaps?

    • If there are gaps, what can be done about this?

  • Are there science questions that will be enabled by these v3 features, which might be “low-hanging fruit” to address?  Are any early planning steps needed to make it possible to address those questions? 

  • Are there important opportunities to address science questions with these new capabilities, which may be outside of our project’s scope, but where we could work towards getting them addressed through collaborations with external projects or partners?

  • Is there analysis that could be done on the v2 model that would help with planning for v3 (e.g., evaluation of methane fluxes?)

  • What near-term or long-term strategies could we pursue to build credibility and visibility for BGC capabilities and activities in E3SM?

  • Any other comments / concerns?
