Additional and Ongoing Work |
Another aspect of the Climate DEVL was to focus a community approach to define the highest priority CMIP6 data needing to be replicated in Australia for local analysis, to permit timely development and publication of scientific research papers analysing the CMIP6 data as it becomes available. The DEVL also supports the evaluation of various model analysis tools, which provides an opportunity for the community to develop standardised workflows for data analysis contributing to the aforementioned research papers. The Climate DEVL also provides a home for coordinating the ongoing development and availability of training materials necessary for a streamlined user experience. The extensive knowledge and interdisciplinary topics that span CMIP mean that effective training is needed, including face-to-face tutorials, online self-paced learning materials, and trainer training. The combined effort of NCI, CLEX, CSIRO and BoM permit such collaborative training efforts to benefit the entire Australian climate science community. Following the completion of the main CMIP6 preparation, the services are being maintained by NCI, with support from NCRIS and our partners to support the ongoing need for data storage and services. |
