Hi,

following our last meeting on Tuesday, I have created the following topics:

And do not forget, we are always open for volunteers to present their work at our meetings. Contact @aukkola , @inh599 or @clairecarouge if you would like to present.

Hi,

Another follow-up from our meeting on Tuesday. There is now a Land/Experiments category to propose experiments.

A template is attached to the category. This means when you open a new topic in this category (or open a new topic from anywhere and set the category to Land Surface and Experiments), the editor will automatically be populated with a template containing instructions on what information is required in each field.

You do not need to fill all fields for every experiment but the more information you give, the easier it is for others to understand if they can use your experiment outputs. Some information might only become available towards the end of the experiment.

I have created an experiment for the ACCESS-AM3 work that is currently underway using the WG resources to serve as an example. The ESM working group has been using this template for a while, so please look at their category for more examples.

Hi,

We have a meeting next week. You can find the details below and links to add the event to your calendars.

Land Working Group meeting

Agenda:

Admin:

  • new allocation for the WG project, rp23.

Discussions:

  • Forcing datasets for land surface models for CMIP7. Discussion/survey on ILMF mailing list
  • Start the discussion on multi-site-based tests run through benchcab (@gab):
    – how should summative analyses (multiple sites/variables) be displayed
    – how should individual site analyses be incorporated?
    – how should we represent trunk-branch comparisons, and include multiple model configurations?
    – which analyses do we want that we don’t already have in modelevaluation.org ?
