List of resolution combinations that ACME will support AND if needed mapping and domain files exist.
Preferred Tool = tool ACME wants to use to make mapping files.
- ESMF = ESMF Regridder, supports aave, bilinear and patchmap options.
- Tempest = TempestRemap
Domain files (from Mariana): "Domain files specify the grid and mask for all of the data models and also for CLM. CLM uses a global surface dataset where it assumes land everywhere - so where there is ocean it assumes wetland. It then uses the domain.lnd.xxx.nc file to determine its land mask (which is really the ocean land mask mapped to the land grid). By this mechanism you do not need different surface datasets when the land mask is changed (which used to be the case a few years ago).
Low Resolution (for integration testing)
Approximately 2 degrees. Replaces FV 1.9x2.5, T42 with gx1v6 cases.
ATM/LND: ne16, 30L (72L option available)
Ocn/sea-ice: 240km
ice sheet: ais20km or stub model SGLC.
River model: 0.5 degrees
