State and future of CCMs
Chair: Ted Shepherd
Rapporteur: Hideharu Akiyoshi
What sort of model configuration the CCM groups plan to use for the next
round of assessments, e.g. coupled to ocean, with tropospheric chemistry,
changes in model configuration compared to WMO 2006, what time period, how much
capacity for different scenarios, etc. ?
Groups will be asked to send in 2-3 slides in advance, to be assembled
into a single presentation along with a set of questions. Preferably and if
they have a representative there, then someone from the group should stand up
and present that group's slides.

Possible
scenarios
·
Forcing
data sets
Breakout
Group II: CCMVal Diagnostic Tools, Data Archiving and Data Formats
·

·
Development
of a standard CCMVal diagnostic package from tables: who will use it, who will
help develop it?
Breakout
Group III: Define a Strategy for Developing Standards for CCMVal Performance
·
Consider
defining a threshold level of performance or weighting for those models that
are used to make the next assessment predictions.
Breakout
Group IV: SPARC CCMVal Report on CCM Evaluation
·
Purpose
and structure of the report, time schedule, main science questions etc.
Discuss specific diagnostics, validation and
analysis activities in each chapter
