| | 28 | |
| | 29 | ''' Motivation: ''' Easily manage the set-up of new-configurations. [[BR]] ''' Status :''' Preliminary version available in Sept 2013. Fortran routines only.[[BR]] ''' Main tasks :''' Develop tools (scripts, Fortran routines, graphical interfaces) to create inputs needed to run a new configuration. Take into account online (AGRIF) or offline nesting. Tasks scheduled in 2014: Debug, Enable creating a configuration around the North Pole, ensure compatibility with existing nesting tools interface. Possible future developments in 2015 and beyond: Vertical remapping (or should it be online ?), Python scripts (?), graphical interface (?) |

| | 42 | |
| | 43 | ''' Motivation: ''' Enable AGRIF and time splitting[[BR]] ''' Status : ''' Not started yet although some work done in 2008 by F. Dupont (Env. Canada) has been reported in tickets 106 and 107. [[BR]] ''' Main tasks :''' This would be done in two steps, spanning two development years: |
| | 44 | |
| | 45 | 1. First, implement basic coupling of the barotropic mode at the baroclinic step level (Similar to what has been done by Penven et al. (2006) in ROMS). |
| | 46 | 1. Second, implement full coupling at the barotropic time step level (Debreu et al., 2012) |
| | 47 | |
| | 48 | In any case, try to ensure volume conservation (relying on the forward nature of barotropic equations with time splitting). |

| | 53 | |
| | 54 | ''' Motivation: ''' Partially relax hydrostatic approximation to restore some important physical properties. See what happens in global eddying simulations.[[BR]] ''' Status : ''' Not started yet. [[BR]] ''' Main tasks :''' Changes are far less computationally expensive than turning to the full non-hydrostatic equations. These would however be significant. Quoting Marshall et al. (1997): "the quasi-hydrostatic model retains cos(latitude) Coriolis terms in the zonal and vertical momentum equations, neglects Dw/Dt in the vertical and does not make the shallow atmosphere approximation".[[BR]] ''' Science Reviewer:''' TBD (Gurvan ?)[[BR]] ''' System Reviewer: ''' TBD [[BR]] ''' Deadline: ''' 2015[[BR]] ''' Priority: ''' Low [[BR]] ''' Depends on:''' resources available after completion of tasks above[[BR]] ''' Principal Investigator : ''' Jérôme Chanut |
