Apologies: Tilo, Ian
For discussion
- Model test with global swap of 2/12 and 4/13 showing some odd behaviour for type 13. What have we missed?
- Progress on parameter values
- Vegetation distribution without Australian pfts. @alexnorton has prepared a new version, waiting on @RachelLaw to review.
- Configuration ‘to do’ table. Review of land items.
Notes
PFT swaps:
- Rachel: The GPP is collapsing (to 0) for PFT 13 after several years of simulation.
- Lachlan: run with zeroing out the PFTs 2 and 4 is creating differences in the run while these have a tile fraction of 0.
- It would be useful if the collapse is reproducible if starting the run on that year to make a shorter testcase to work with.
- Alex: Is there any chance there is a PFT-dependence left in the coupling? Could we use Rachel’s single point simulations to track the issue? Or the offline CABLE code although it isn’t in sync with ESM1.6 (Claire)
Parameter values:
- Rachel working on the pftlookup file. Trying to identify the parameters we are using and we need values for.
- Rachel: In the CABLE documentation, it would be good for the parameters to identified if they are used only with certain options.
Vegetation distribution without Australian PFTs:
- Rachel reviewing
Configuration ‘to do’ table review:
- Need to add the CABLE library work.
- vcmax work: still in evaluation of the longer-term implications. The advantage is that it would require less parameters to tune.
- seasonality of the carbon fluxes needs to be looked at.
