Agenda

  • Transition to capgen.py
  • Standardized way to read tabulated data in CCPP schemes?
  • Update on standard names

Transition to capgen.py

  • Status of capgen in MPAS:
    • September 30 - Dave wants to run CCPP physics running in MPAS, this used to be June and slipped
    • CCPP-compliant physics are B4B with existing physics
    • Dave has a branch of MPAS that implements the ccpp-framework and uses it to call at least one physics scheme
      • Simple suite, hardcoded to use CCPP (simple = several schemes and a subcycle, no fancy automation and conversations)
      • In the end, MPAS needs to be able to run both CCPP and non-CCPP physics
    • WRF will call CCPP-compliant physics directly w/o the framework
    • Need to ask Dave about missing capabilities of the framework for use in MPAS
    • Steve:
      • No requests from MMM on additional framework capabilities, but plenty of work to do for CESM
  • Cheryl built the musica box model a while back, which uses capgen
  • feature/capgen branch had major updates on March 18, smaller updates Apr 10 and May 21
    • Cheryl uses a branch in Steve's fork that was updated in April, too - thus, feature/capgen is up to date
  • Steve currently working on DDT type issue (inconsistency in how we describe DDTs in the metadata)
    • Next: actions (var_action class), which is required for Dom to work on unit conversions and for Steve to work on diagnostics; a lot of other development depends on the var_action capability, too
  • UFS:
    • Deliverable to transition to capgen at the end of last year ... slipped
    • Additional deliverables that build on capgen
  • Issues/Questions:
    • There is no management to coordinate the work between NOAA end NCAR
    • Is there a gap in funding and personal to get capgen working in the UFS with the required capabilities?
    • Dom can start working on the code from end of July (after CIRES ASA season)

Standardized way to read tabulated data in CCPP schemes?

  • Need to wait until Andrew shows up again
