HowTo ToDo List (long-term, to be updated from time to time, to be completed by various contributors)

[christian-stepanek]

• create paleo-geography openIFS (including descriptions for adaptations necessary with dynamic vegetation, cavities, ...) -> Fernanda Matos, Christian Stepanek, Martin Werner (with support by Qiong Zhang, Uni Stockholm)
• modify vegetation(fixed) -> Jian Shi, Christian Stepanek
• use dynamic vegetation (LPJ-GUESS) -> Christian Stepanek et al.
• use custom time series of greenhouse gases (potentially via modifying an existing scenario?) -> ?
• use custom time series of orbital forcing (e.g. for accelerated orbit runs) -> ?
• how to modify an ocean restart (e.g. create warmer initial temperatures) -> Nikolay Koldunov and colleagues?
• modify variables / frequencies of model output -> ?
• how to tune the model for new resolutions and newly included components and modules (here one could describe suggested standard steps that so far helped overcoming model biases) -> Jan Streffing?
• extend online diagnostics to additional useful quantities (e.g. global ocean heat content, hemispheric sea ice area / volume, ...)
