A three-year position is available in CMS after Annette Hirsch accepted a position with Deloitte. Meanwhile, CMS released a new version of CABLE-WRF, developed a data and code collection, redesigned training sources on the CMS wiki, and have helped create access to new configurations in ACCESS-ESM1.5.
In this report CMS welcomes Annette Hirsch to the team, alerts users to retracted ERA5 data, continues work on ACCESS-ESM1.5, and looks at changes to NCI processes, and CLEX data management practices and training.
Two new ACCESS models have been released (ACCESS-CM2, ACCESS-ESM1.5), the Aus400 dataset has been published, the ERA5 collection is being transferred to NCI and there is now a new quick process to book meetings with our CMS team.
Claire Carouge highlights the role the CMS team played in the development of ACCESS-ESM1.5, the role of Payu in the same model, the arrival of CleF 1.0.1, and announces new precipitation datasets have been added to our CLEX collection.
This release is to advise the community that an ACCESS Oversight Committee has been formed initially comprising Christian Jakob, Rachel Law, Helen Cleugh, Andy Pitman, Tony Hirst, Peter May, David Karoly and Ben Evans. Terms of reference have been agreed to by the group and can be found at the end of this document.
The CMS team reports on a range of updates to ACCESS, NU-WRF (CABLE coupled to WRF), CMIP6 data, ERA5 datasets and more.
