This is a post to brainstorm discussion points and summarise discussion for the Regional / coastal breakout at the 2023 COSIMA workshop.

Here are some initial discussion points, please add more below.

  • How can we better share knowledge between different regional / coastal modelling communities in Australia (e.g. grids, bathymetry, understanding of open boundary processes)? Consider the benefits of:

  1. Working with ANCOMS (Australian National Coastal Ocean Modelling System), ACCESS-NRI and IMOS in GlobalCoast (GOOS CoastPredict program under the UN decade of the ocean) to coordinate efforts nationally and internationally.

  2. Holding a joint ACOMO (Australian Coastal and Oceans Modelling and Observations) / COSIMA workshop in 2024.

  • What do we know about the sensitivity of MOM6 regional configs to open boundary condition parameters? Can we better share or improve our knowledge on this?

  • What are our priorities (in order) for facilitating use and development of MOM6 regional model configs? e.g. Documentation, sea ice (CICE6) boundary forcing, tidal forcing, atmospheric coupling.
