Experiment Proposal: ACCESS-N48 coupled model runs in idealised ENSO epxeriments

Dear ACCESS-NRI,
I like to use about 300K CPU in this quarter to run a set of of idealised land-sea distributions to highlight the skill of the ACCESS-N48 coupled model for the study of ENSO. The plan is to do about 5 runs each ~300yrs long with different tropical ocean basins to study how ENSO period, amplitude, dynamics and tropical basin interactions relate to the basin geometry.

This pending on the optimistic assumption that I will manage to get the model reconfiguration working within the next week or two.

best regards

Dear Dietmar,

I would like to know about the land model utilized in the N48 version. Could you kindly confirm whether the N48 version incorporates the CABLE land model?

Best Regards,

Arnold

Dear Arnold,
I have been told it does, but better ask @abhik or @atteggiani

Best regards

I think the ACCESS-48 configuration was created only by getting an ACCESS-CM2 (N96) configuration and interpolating it onto the N48 grid.

Therefore, it should have CABLE as the land component.

To be sure, @Scott would be the person to ask, since I think he put together the configuration in the first place.

Cheers
Davide
