Alexey-Ben meeting 2019-06-26

Updates

• FoRTE
  • Waiting on long-run results. Should be done in the next day or two.
  • Some revisions to analysis and figures (e.g. k-means clustering for LAI by PFT figure; consistent color scheme throughout)
  • Only minor revisions to manuscript. This has not moved forward as much as it should have.
• Hector
  • Got a mostly functional version of the biome code working. Took longer than I expected.
  • Spent some time on Hector terrestrial C cycle documentation. Science is mostly paraphrasing the GMD paper. Also trying to document some details of the implementation, based on what I learned while making the biome changes.

Goals for this week

• Hector
  • Clean up and submit biome PR
• FoRTE
  • Keep working on manuscript

Notes from meeting

• FoRTE paper

  • Idea: PFT by LAI as a stacked bar plot (to show total LAI)
  • GCB as a journal should still be on the table
  • Interesting counterpoint to Fisher 2017 vegetation demography model paper. Interesting complement to Sulman soil paper, which had similar conclusions about parameter uncertainty
  • Can be framed in terms of a conversation about succession
  • Ben is flying to Richland on July 10. Alexey will deliver a draft of whatever he has on July 8

• Hector

  • Terrestrial C cycle documentation looks promising
  • Permafrost paper should still be on track
