We’ll use this thread to gather the discussions in the final afternoon session.
We asked everyone to please come prepared with an idea you’d like to tackle, such as: calculating grounding line flux that could be calculated over any domain, height above flotation, etc.
We’ll be working in groups of 2-3 people and will focus on getting down on paper some pseudocode to describe a series of processing steps, input and output data requirements and variables, an algorithm - it’s up to you.
Here is a summary from sub-group discussion on ISSM Cookbook and hackathon: idea: learn from the COSIMA cookbook Top priority: we need a notebook or a hive page to show how to run ISSM using Payu Other things needed in cookbook: post-processing, data analysis, boundary conditions, initial conditions, forcings, how to calculate a few key variables (volume above flotation), what ice sheet model can generate as outputs and post-processed outputs; how to use git; how to use python scripts on gadi Question raised: how to encourage community contribution to cookbook Suggestion: we need to recognise people’s contribution and encourage people to cite the contribution in publications; no judgements; emphasize we share it for benefits of everyone; have a team for science review and code review; intern to provide assistance; host a training about how to contribute in a clear way; Keep in mind: quality control, review and ACCESS-NRI standard approval for submission
Other suggestions:
Hackathon is quite helpful to produce a notebook, suggest organising hackathon before or after a workshop or meeting.
half-year training provided by ACCESS-NRI: how to use github; how to use python
