regions 7: `EAS-25` covers different area #18

Open larsbuntemeyer opened 1 week ago

Right now, the grid definitions in region 7 (EAS) are not consistent, e.g., the CORDEX-CORE grid EAS-25 does not cover the same area as EAS-50 and EAS-12:

This is the case for all other regions which define different resolutions. I think, the EAS domain has been redefined for CORDEX-CORE, but I am not sure if there is also a new definition of the other resolutions. Right now, I only see EAS-25 in the simulation status.

@gnikulin would you know, with whom to check the EAS-25 grid definitions? If there are no EAS-12 runs planned in CORDEX-CMIP6, i would remove that domain definition from CORDEX-CMIP6_rotated_grids.csv. Numbers for EAS-50 were based on the old archive specs (page 10).

Configuration of the EAS domain changed during CORDEX-CMIP5 that led to many confusions. We need to contact the POCs for the EAS domain https://cordex.org/domains/region-7-east-asia to clarify what domain(s) are used in CORDEX-CMIP6. We can leave the EAS domains as they are right now.
