| 21 | '''Detailed summary of the NEMO Consortium white paper '''has been discussed and approved: |
| 22 | |
| 23 | 1 - Introduction '''-> Claire Lévy'''[[BR]]Includes:[[BR]]- Brief history[[BR]]- Motivations for this prospective work[[BR]]- What is this document?[[BR]]- How has it been elaborated written and reviewed? How will it be used? How will it be updated? |
| 24 | |
| 25 | 2 - Target applications in about 10 years '''-> Julien Le Sommer''' |
| 26 | |
| 27 | 3 – NEMO kernel '''-> Julien Le Sommer'''[[BR]]Includes:[[BR]]- Contours (seamless to what extent ?) and components of NEMO[[BR]]- no strong case for moving toward unstructured grid yet[[BR]]- AGRIF is an essential tool for NEMO, but ressources are needed.[[BR]]- HPC and the question of scalability should be addressed (now and in the future). how can we keep an eye on the evolution of unstructured discretization methods? |
| 28 | |
| 29 | 4 – The ocean dynamics component of NEMO : NEMO-OPA '''->Anne-Marie Tréguier, John Siddorn'''[[BR]]- Evolutions of ocean physics: what has reached consensus, wave and wave coupling, and also non-hydrostatic, non-Bousinesq[[BR]]- What rationale/process for simplifying the code ? A need for simplifying the code for both maintenance and futur evolutions (fewer options) |
| 30 | |
| 31 | 5 – Towards locally higher effective resolution : AGRIF '''-> Yann Drillet'''[[BR]]- Today and what is expected in the future (when?) |
| 32 | |
| 33 | 6 – The assimilation component of NEMO '''->Srdjan Dobricic'''[[BR]]- Evolution of the component (NEMO-TAM, NEMO-OBS, NEMO-ASM)[[BR]]- Shall we develop together tools for ensemble runs? (multi-NEMO, metrics) |
| 34 | |
| 35 | 7 – The sea-ice component of NEMO : NEMO-LIM and its interface '''-> Gurvan Madec'''[[BR]]- Evolution of the component and of its interface with NEMO-OPA considering the diversity of components in use. |
| 36 | |
| 37 | 8 – The biogeochemical component of NEMO: NEMO-TOP and its interface '''-> Gurvan Madec'''[[BR]]- Evolution of the component and of its interface with NEMO-OPA considering the diversity of components in use. |
| 38 | |
| 39 | 9 - NEMO validation and contours of user support '''->Paolo Oddo, Andrew Coward'''[[BR]]- Includes:[[BR]]- NEMO : a community model or a consortium model ?[[BR]]- What should be the list of reference configurations?[[BR]]- Improve users experience, facilitate the first steps with NEMO (tutorial, config tools) - enabling external users to make available their configurations ?[[BR]]- Diagnostic tools have not been discussed much |
| 40 | |
| 41 | 10 – Drivers and organisation to prioritise developments and ensure the mid-term goals '''->Claire Lévy''' |
| 42 | |
| 43 | ''Sections 2 to 9 should include:[[BR]]Some details on what has been discussed[[BR]]What makes full consensus[[BR]]What remains in discussion, the list of opinions/advices, and how to proceed (including a proposed agenda, before and/or after December 2013)[[BR]]What has not been discussed but could/should be in the future[[BR]]A list of actions[[BR]]Identification of existing manpower or of the needed one, eventually with 2 possible plans '' |
