Wrap Up

Attendes: Ralph, Shawn, Dustin, Zac, Rodger
Call Duration: 1hr 10min

  • 2011a Modeling Platform:
    The DW will support multiple scenarios of the 2011a platform, rather than produce a 2011a2 platform. Zac's 2011a Modeling Platform Description Wiki provides an overview of options that are, or are planned for, the 2011a platform. The table provides a template for populating Dustin's category system (that supports the DW Data Request form) with 2011a platform options.
    Zac will add Add row in 2011a Modeling Platform Description Table for MPE, Reports, & Obs. Data. Also fill in blank fields in notes/references column.
    Some planned sensitivity runs are not included in the Table, for example a Hybrid CMAQ which will be run for a couple months of the 2011 modeling year, and a 4th BC scenario using AM3.
    Contents of the table currently on viking and available to users include modeling software, emissions data, met data, MOZART and GEOS-Chem ICBCs, Other input data, PGM output for CAMx Base11a_MZBC.


Description Table: Possibly add contact information for individual platform components. Since most contacts would come to DW Team, a list serve could be employed to handle generic requests.
