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.F90 in NEMO code '''Suggestions : it will very useful that EVERY INSTITUTION of CONSORTIUM will start one Test case so please fill the Workplan with almost one.''' * AFTER march (when user_defined_module.F90 will be implemented), starting from TEST_CASE branch : * implementation of test case for EACH CONSORTIUM INSTITUTION Preliminary list of test cases: 1. A subtropical gyre : to validate Sverdrup equilibrium and to illustrate west boundary current dynamics. 1. A test case of dense plume on topographic slope : to validate overflow entrainment (cf Legg et al. 2006). 1. An idealized convection basin : to evaluate re-stratification (cf. Rousset C. et 2009). 1. A test case to validate the wave-current interaction (medium to large scale) processes implemented within 1. A test case of Dynamics of an Equatorial River Plume (applied to Congo River) (cf Vic et al. 2014). 1. INTEGRATION OF THE SEABASS CONFIGURATION AS A TEST CASE ---- == 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 : [attachment:wiki:WorkingGroups/Robustness-TestCases:minute-visio_2-3-2015.doc minute-visio_2-3-2015] Second meeting: Syntheses of what other models done, possible interactions? ---- == Documentation preliminary documents: [[BR]] Introduction to Working Group on Test cases at Developer’s Committee meeting in Toulouse : [attachment:wiki:WorkingGroups/Robustness-TestCases:Introduction_WG-Test-case.pdf Introduction to Working Group on Test cases] preparing definition of a configuration in NEMO: [attachment:wiki:WorkingGroups/Robustness-TestCases:config-definition-TC.pdf configuration definition] '''[/WorkingGroups/Robustness-TestCases/ImplementationStrategyAndTemplate Implementation strategy and template]'''
