Meeting Minutes
Date: July 1, 2025
Attendees: 8
1. Feedback from conferences
-
UKMO (@inh599 ):
- Interest in high-resolution and intersection with ML for weather forecasting. The land surface starts impacting the performance when running at high resolution. Hence, interest and questions around ML to replace some processes.
- People want to collaborate more with us on fire, methane cycle, plant functional types…
- Interest in benchcab from the JULES community
- Getting CABLE in the NGMS-based JULES should be easier than JULES with the UM because the I/O would be easier.
- Discussion on LFRic and when to move to it. Nobody thought there was a benefit in moving to it quickly.
-
AMOS:
- Interest in the Australian PFTs.
- Session on transition to net-zero, interest in analysing the carbon cycle in ACCESS-ESM1.5 simulations for this optic.
2. New MPI implementation presentation
- Using a Parallel I/O approach.
- Introducing NCAR’s Parallel IO library as a dependency for MPI builds
- Unifying the serial and parallel drivers
- Redesign of the CABLE’s I/O routines to enable the implementation of parallel I/O
3. ACCESS-NRI Work plan FY25-26
- Highlighted work items of interest to the working group
