March 1, 2007 meeting

1:00 PM Damon Room

Participants: Phil Rasch, Francis Vitt, Mariana Vertenstein, Erik Kluzek, Brian Eaton, Peter Hess

Action items

• Mariana – setup meeting to meet with everyone
• Francis – create trop-mozart version from Chemistry preprocessor for this case
• Francis – checkin tuning code mods and new trop-mozart directory to trunk
• Peter and/or Francis – give Erik examples of datasets needed for trop-mozart
• Brian E. – change configure for this case
• Erik – meet with Dani on Monday regarding datasets, testing – done
• Erik – start figuring this stuff out
• Erik – modify datasets so time-series and units are correct for trop-mozart
• Erik – give time-series plots of emissions for each species
• Erik – get dataset testing from Dani to validate new datasets
• Erik – debug so simulations should work
• ???? – actually run the production simulations?

  Decisions

• Horizontal resolutions is 1.9x2.5
• Use trop-mozart as new directory for this case of 16 tracers
• Convert datasets to trop-mozart units and change time-series from 10-year monthly to monthly per year
• Interpolate input datasets to model grid resolution – offline
• Large datasets are OK
• Have trop-mozart replicate functionality of Byron's GHG module
• Use same volcanic dataset and CO2 ramping as for last IPCC simulation (for the CCSM simulation)
• Use dust and sea-salt if at all possible
