Background and Goals
NICEST-2 - the second phase of the Nordic Collaboration on e-Infrastructures for Earth System Modelling focuses on strengthening the Nordic position within climate modelling by leveraging, reinforcing and complementing ongoing initiatives. It builds on previous efforts within NICEST (a 3-year NeIC project as of 2017-01) and NordicESM (3-year NordForsk funded project from 2014-12).
Planned activities include:
- Enhance the performance and optimize and homogenize workflows used, so climate models (like EC-EARTH and NorESM) can be run in an efficient way on future computing resources (e.g. EuroHPC LUMI).
- Widen the usage and expertise on evaluating Earth System Models and develop new diagnostic modules for the Nordic region within the ESMValTool.
- Create a roadmap for FAIRification of Nordic climate model data.
