NEMO Developer's Committee meeting - 23 june 2015

The meeting will take place on Tuesday 23 June 2015 by videoconference

Proposed agenda:

9:15: Opening of videoconference - 15 minutes to test all connections together: please connect as soon as possible

9:30 Introduction – Agenda and objectives of the meeting (10 mn)

9:40 - 10:40 Brief reports and discussion on Working groups:

• AGRIF (L. Debreu)
• Configuration Manager (J. Paul)
• Data Assimilation (PA Bouttier)
• Wave coupling (E. Clementi)
• Simplification and robustness (S. Flavoni)
• HPC (S. Masson)
  

The report should include

• the main progress of 2015 (especially if they induce changes in the development strategy document)
• the coherency/discrepancies of these results and the 2015 work plan
• if relevant the inputs from these results for the 2016 work plan
  

10:40 - 12:30 Brief report on actions of 2015 workplan and 2016 perspectives by the institutions of the Consortium: CMCC (D. Iovino), CNRS (C. Ethé), INGV (E. Clementi), Mercator (C. Bricaud), Met-Office (T. Graham), NOC (A. Coward), [ and a Coffee Break somewhere in between ]

The report should include

• The status of the specific and shared actions of the work plan for which an expert of their institution is PI (see https://forge.ipsl.jussieu.fr/nemo/wiki/2015WP). The goal is not to screen all the work plan, but only to identify delays or problems, if relevant
• The preliminary streams, as seen for now, for 2016 work plan

12:30 - 1:30 p.m. Lunch

1:30 - 1:50 Report on Gocean results (J. Holt)

2:10 - 2:30 Organisation of the workshop on the various approaches to multiscale ocean modelling end of 2015 and the associated NEMO Gateway meeting (Julien Le Sommer,  and L. Debreu)

2:30 - 3:30 Open general discussion and answer the questions:

• Advices of Developer's Committee on work done of 1st semester 2015
