[[BR]]Actions listed in workplan = code developed, whereas Working Groups discuss to make scientific and/or technical choices and set up appropriate development actions.[[BR]]There is only 1 NEMO reference, so that there must be some coherency in all this. 41 41 42 At this point, discussions took place within NEMO System Team to elaborate the proposal.

For now, it is on the wiki, in 2 parts: 48 48 49 * the so called “Shared Actions”, core of the proposal, as the 2015 contribution to the evolution of NEMO defined in the Development Strategy, to be achieve by the NEMO System Team (experts), i.e. the “minimum 1 man-year” per institution of the Consortium49 * the so called “Shared Actions”, core of the proposal, as the 2015 contribution to the evolution of NEMO defined in the Development Strategy, to be achieved by the NEMO System Team experts, i.e. the “minimum 1 man-year” per institution of the Consortium 50 50 * the “per institution” pages: additional work, with additional manpower, to achieve some developments of specific interest for an institution of the consortium 51 51 52 As first overview, the Shared actions pages lists 7 paragraphs:52 As first overview, the Shared Actions page lists 7 sections: 53 53 54 54 * AGRIF … … 66 66 67 67 == Discussion == 68 * What about the developments, updates... in the coupling interface, needed for CMIP6?

Chekki)? Are there some plans to look in details at relative performance of routines in NEMO? [Kim Serradell Maronda, BSC]72 * Could we have some details on HPC actions in 2015?

Masson, leader of HPC working group)'' 75 75 76 BSC is more then welcome to contribute ''(to be discussed between BSC and S. Masson, leader of HPC working group)''77 76 * What about OpenMP? [J. Holt] 78 77 … … 81 80 * How and when is the validation for CMIP6 going to take place? [Uwe Fladrich, EC-EARTH] 82 81 83 There are 2 target configurations (with a few decinations for each): ORCA1 and ORCA025. A first set of validation will take place during the first semester of 2015.[[BR]]For ORCA1, 2 focal points/actions are identified:[[BR]]- ORCA1_LIM3_PISCES: Action "ROBUST-2" - NEMO ready for ESMs-CMIP6: ORCA1_LIM3_PISCES (C. Lévy); and some work on ORCA1_CICE at NOC (A. Coward).[[BR]]- ORCA025: Actions "ROBUST-3" Met-Office and "ROBUST-4"at Mercator.[[BR]]Comment by J. Le Sommer: there are 2 levels of testing: a "functionnal" level, and some work need to asses solutions. For the second one, a dedicated session will take place dunring the next DRAKKAR meeting, and an ocean medel development group meeting (CLIVAR) will take place afterwards also in Grenoble (in order to define a common forcing strategy).

Could there be a coupled configuration (i.e. ESM-like) in the list? [Uwe Fladrich, EC-EARTH] 86 85 87 The list of reference configurations is relatively small today and should remain so: the role of reference configuration are: to help new users setting up a first use of NEMO (all inputs files are available, results of functionnal tests are available), and allow through the SETTE tool, to assess and validate a new development/release of NEMO. Thus, reference configurations are an important amount of work for System Team. This work should not be increased too much: main responsibility of System team is to develop the platform.[[BR]]Aside from the reference confiurations, there is the alternative to set up a "Shared configuration": shared by a community, but no support from System Team.[[BR]]It is a very relevant idea to have tools to assess coupling interface in NEMO. S. Masson gives some information on the ongoing work: in 3.6_STABLE, coupling interface will we compiled, even id not used (using fake OASIS routines), and a kind of "fake_ESM" is envisaged to be able to set up preliminary tests at run-time.[[BR]]Comment from U. Fladrich: EC_EARTH would be interested to take responsibility of an ESM shared configuration with NEMO ''(to be discussed further between EC-EARTH and System Team)''86 The list of reference configurations is relatively small today and should remain so: the objectives for reference configuration are: to help new users setting up a first use of NEMO (all inputs files are available, results of functionnal tests are available); and to allow through the SETTE tool, to assess and validate a new development/release of NEMO.

[O. Marti] 90 89 91 Indded, all diagnostics should be carefully reviewed when activating vvl since layers thickness now change every time step. This is going to be critical for users: concerns not only on-line diagnostics and outputs (done in the reference by System team), but also all the off-line diagnostics build by users. Need to send information, and maybe training for users.90 Indded, all diagnostics should be carefully reviewed when activating vvl since layers thickness now change every time step.

Marti] 94 93 95 96 97 Interesting to share this information within the community, and see if other groups are interested. If additional tasks where to be envisaged in workplan, need to come with additional manpower in System Team, especially when the development is possibly quite intrusive. ''To be further elaborated with System Team.'' 94 Interesting to share this information within the community, and see if other groups are interested.

''To be further elaborated, and agenda to be looked at, with System Team.'' 98 95 99 96 * I'm very interested in action "ROBUST-5 CMCC": OBC with BDY for biogeochemistry, when will it be ready? [J. Holt] 100 97 101 A. Lovato, PI of this action, says will be ready next march. J. Holt says it's perfect.98 T. Lovato, PI of this action, announce it will be ready by next March. J. Holt says "it's perfect".
