Date: 23/11/2023 Participants: 11 Chair: @LaurieM ## Admin - Plan to have one just more meeting this year (Dec 7th) and no meetings in January. First meeting of 2023 will be February 1st. - We have two volunteers for December and February (thanks @jemmajeffree and Francois Delage). Would be good to have at least one more speaker for mid February locked in before break. ## Shared experiments/ACCESS-NRI resources - ESM WG project `lg87` has `/g/data` allocation of 50TB, same for `/scratch` and F&P WG transferred their compute allocation for this quarter, so there is 1.75MSU total. - @eunpalim’s Triple La-Nina experiment: @griff and @lynzhou running this. Done 1 start date so far and used 130KSU/1TB so far. Will run 17 more. - Any proposals for shared experiments for next quarter? See [guidelines for how to do this](https://forum.access-hive.org.au/t/esm-working-group-resource-allocation-guidelines/799). First meeting is in February, so not much time to organise to utilise resources. - ACCESS-NRI Merit Allocations Guidelines: Release scheduled for today. Overview from @Aidan and discussion/questions. ## Science talk [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/access1/original/2X/b/bce7d1a3b27cf993b5df55b6e281705312f3628f.jpeg "Recording Hutchinson ESMWG Nov 23") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1-dYyELVwyo) Works for Miocene, but still haven’t problems with orography. 7 orography variables in the UM restart file. Works with small changes, but trying to just change the areas where miocene changes leads to a model crash. Can’t find how this was originally generated.

There are several aspects that are unfinished, but posting here now as it may be useful as a starting point. The scripts referred to here in [this github repository](https://github.com/dkhutch/access_esm_miocene/) and the accompanying files will be added to lg87 on Gadi in the near future. Some of the following is a clone of the README from the github repo, but some additional steps will be added for starting the experiments.

ENSO not good. Quasi-biennial life-cycle of ENSO. 7 out of 10 metrics are good. Only ENSO stands out as bad. Run group of 8 PPEs. Large TOA Energy imbalance: 0.4 W/m2. Chose best and ran more tests. Less than 0.2 W/m2 vs 0.4.
