Checklist for v2 Developments
- Hongyi Li
Checklist To-Do Item | Description | Evaluation | Evidence of evaluation | Group lead/deputy group lead sign off |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Run in BGC mode (offline mode) | Ensure development works with active BGC in a transient run (for land features this means running at least one offline simulation with CTC) | Verify model runs without crashes for 50 years for the land model, or 25 years for other components. “Reasonable” outputs of GPP, ET, QRUNOFF, TOTVEGC, TLAI, FSA or FSDS, TSA, Ocean DIC and DOC, but does not have to be journal-level scientifically valid. | June 11, 2019 |
|
Run in coupled mode with BGC | Ensure development works in a B-case transient compset with BGC on | Verify model runs without crashes for 10 years. Provide outputs of e3sm_diags package for the simulation. | MOSART-heat currently is not implemented in a energy-conservation mode, so can’t not be run in a coupled mode. |
|
Test with other BGC features turned on | Ensure the development works with other (already merged) BGC features turned on (if there are options defaulted off in the previous two rows) | Verify model runs without crashes for 50 years for the land model, or 25 years for other components. “Reasonable” outputs of GPP, ET, QRUNOFF, TOTVEGC, TLAI, FSA or FSDS (absorbed or incident solar radiation), TSA (2m air temperature), Ocean DIC and DOC, but does not have to be journal-level scientifically valid. | MOSART-heat does not interact with any other BGC features. |
|
Input check | Ensure all inputs are available on the e3sm input data server AND document how any new inputs are generated for the feature | Inputs on server, documentation on Confluence, script to generate archived in [prepostprocessing script repository] | MOSART-heat does not require its own inputs, but rather leveraging the inputs for MOSART-wm (hydrograph parameters) and ELM (forcing). |
|
Performance testing | Ensure development does not significantly increase run time | Provide timing information with and without development for BGC/performance leads to assess. Tests can be offline cases, but should be for 10 days using an ne30 grid. Please be sure that you use the same number of processors for simulations with and without the development. | June 30, 2019 |
|
Validation testing | Add a test (or verify a test exists) using the feature so we can ensure future E3SM developments do not break your new feature/development. | Test in the E3SM testing suite with the feature enabled. At a minimum, a smoke test is needed. | June 30, 2019 B2 Mosart Heat Validation Phase 1
