Stand-up meeting link (Mondays 9.30am):

6/11/2024

Apologies: Tammas, Arnold
Agenda:

  1. What are stand-up meetings (Aidan)
  2. Schedule the stand-up meetings (Claire)
  3. Goal for ESM1.6-land development (Tilo)
  4. Current status of development (Rachel)
  5. Upcoming development work (Claire)

Notes:

  1. Get everyone in the room that needs to be there, not everyone required every day. Focus on solving problems. Used to make decisions on blockers and get action items. Put agenda and notes on the forum. Also a status update.
  2. Start with 9.30am on Monday mornings
    • Changes around the landuse change scheme - improvements in pools initialisation, additional wood harvest.
    • Bringing changes from CABLE3 and AM3
    • Bug fixes and documented issues
    • Changes happening in the atmosphere as well by Harun and Arnold.
    • Changes to atmospheric coupling
    • More configurations for ESM1.6
    • Deployment repository for ESM1.6 - need to update from ESM1.5
    • Pool initialisation and wood harvest: Tammas working on it, getting it in ESM1.6
    • CABLE3 harmonisation between all the coupled and standalone versions: Rachel, Jhan
    • CABLE as a library: Ben
    • Update CABLE to CABLE3 for ESM1.6 build - get all development to merge into UM7 main.

Blockers:

  • payu: what is the most effective way to build the code while working with payu. Need more configurations soon (4xCO2).
  • easier to use SVN UM checkout and git clone CABLE in that checkout to bring CABLE in.

Actions:

  • add “ESM1.6 FastTrack” milestone to relevant CABLE issues (all)
  • GitHub project board for ESM1.6 - same board as ocean (Claire)
  • Create chat for this group to be used for questions to the group (Aidan)
  • Make 4xCO2 issue in ESM1.6 config repo (Rachel)
  • Add wiki to document how to run ESM1.6 for developers (Aidan)
  • Update description of ESM1.6-CABLE3 PR (Jhan)
  • Send meeting invite (Claire)
  • Add information of issue labelling in ESM1.6 wiki once Aidan has started it (Claire)

Apologies: Ian.
Agenda:

  1. Status of action items
  • Create chat channel for this group
  • Create wiki to document development practices
  • add “ESM1.6 FastTrack” milestone to relevant CABLE issues (all)
  • GitHub project board for ESM1.6 - same board as ocean (Claire)
  • Make 4xCO2 issue in ESM1.6 config repo (Rachel)
  • Update description of ESM1.6-CABLE3 PR (Jhan)
  • Send meeting invite (Claire)
  • Add information of issue labelling in ESM1.6 wiki once Aidan has started it (Claire)

Notes:

Getting started with ESM1.6 documentation on ACCESS-Hive:

2 build processes: clone spack and building the code locally (documented - see above) or pushing a branch to the repo and using the CD to build the code (to be documented). No recommended option yet. Second option better for sharing. Jhan found second method easier.

Issues with payu clone for Jhan came from git customisations. Solved now.

Jhan says the interface UM7-CABLE3 should be done now.

Actions:

  • ESM1.6 config repo issues to add to the project board (all)
  • Longer runs to look at (@RachelLaw )
  • Add issue for CMT work to ACCESS-NRI/UM7 repo and project board (@arnoldsu )
  • 4xCO2 configuration (@MartinDix )
  • ESM1.6 configs, official dev branch to create (@Aidan )

Notes:
4XCO2 setup need a test run.
CMT work: report in 1 or 2 weeks

In CABLE repository, changes for ESM1.6 to be added to coupled/ESM1.6/ directory (directory being created now).

In UM7 repository, changes for ESM1.6 to be pushed to the main branch.

How close are we from the iceberg scheme to be figured out? To know implications on the land side. No change to the ice cap expected.

Actions:

Apologies for missing the meeting. I created the initial dev branch, but I have not closed the issue, as it needs to be updated when the next release of ESM1.5 is out (in a week or two).
