Objectives:

Motivation: There are several motivations to define a suite of standard test-cases for NEMO (e.g. for pedagogical purpose and/or for demonstrating the benefit of new features and/or for illustrating the effect of a numerical scheme). The purpose of the Working Group is to :

• Specify the expected outcome of standard test-cases in NEMO.
• Define how standard test-cases should be distributed within NEMO. There will be interactions with Configuration Manager Working Group to decide how input files (bathymetry, coordinates,...) will be given, and how they will be maintained.

Input to the Workplan 2016

Work done 2015:

• definition of the implementation strategy for Test Cases
• creation of a template of an Equatorial Box Test Case
• a first list of Test Cases 

Workplan 2016:

• between jannuary and march:
  • implementation of GYRE like the ONLY standard example
  • creation of user_defined_module in NEMO code

• AFTER march, starting from TEST_CASE branch MODIFICATION:
  • implementation of test case for EACH CONSORTIUM INSTITUTION

Agenda:

First meeting: Coordination with Simplification, Configuration Manager and AGRIF (probably by videoconference) to fix rules of "what is a configuration, which files, and where": 2/3/2015

minutes of visioconference : minute-visio_2-3-2015

Second meeting: Syntheses of what other models done, possible interactions?
