Project status

The project manager gives a report on the project status.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1RwGkXMTDiylDVoCWIk367-2EoYnIZKGb/view?usp=sharing

Discussion: Experienced overhead in using ESMValTool: Knowledge how to use it is a necessary premise to collect user requirements and feedback.

Summary: The SG recommends the report.

 

Decision point list

The SG went through the decision point checklist and updated it.

 

Discussion: List of deliverables which could be made available earlier than M36 (see https://nordicesmhub.github.io/nicest2/2020/05/04/plan.html ). The final proposal will have to be synced with the team members.


 

  • D2.3: 1 online tutorial on how to best use ESMValTool diagnostic tools for the Nordic countries (eg, polar lows, European and Greenland blocking events) with emphasis on (high-latitude) observations (and “observation simulators” to some extent). M33

Rationale: Opportunity to get also more feedback from partners

 

  • D3.5: 1 Data Management Plan Template, including best practices for FAIR Nordic Climate Data M33

Rationale: many DMP templates provided from different parties at the moment

 

  • D4.3: Online training material on best practices for the deployment of ESM workflows  M30

     Rationale: get more feedback, as well

 

  • D4.6: Best practice guides on how to evaluate the performance of Nordic ESMs. M33

Rationale: get feedback, as well

 

  • D4.5: Report on bottlenecks that would hinder the efficient usage of Nordic ESMs on EuroHPC and possible remediation actions (I/Os, adding GPU support, etc.) with clear information on costs (PMs, etc.) M30

                  Rationale: Bottlenecks are identified early in the project and refined later so we should have sufficient inputs by M30.



 

Decision: The project manager comes with an updated project plan proposal with updated deadlines for previous M36 deliverables for the next SG meeting.
