Ratko Vasic • Maintains and tests ESMF libraries and upgrades • Has fed back many ESMF issues to ESMF core team and has frequently been a beta-tester for ESMF • Maintains fast feedback communication between ESMF core team and NEMS team • Works with Matt Pyle and George Gayno in testing NEMS initial conditions • Installed parallel restart capability • Working in NEMS NMM-B • Soon to be available in NEMS GFS • Installed GWD in NEMS NMM-B • Now developing the coupling of GFS physics with NMM-B dynamics
Weiyu Yang • Returning to work on NEMS after working on another project • Supporting ensemble capability in NEMS • Developed single-executable ensemble capability in current operational (non-NEMS) GFS • Working on porting Dingchen Hou’s ensemble coupling to NEMS • Supporting development of ocean-atmosphere couple capability in NEMS
Jun Wang • Developed and maintains NEMSIO • Used for history and restart output data • Parallel I/O capability on NEMS quilt servers • Both GRIB1 and binary with full metadata • GRIB2 and NETCDF4 in future • GFS and NMM-B and icosahedral grids • Support for very large files • Installed NEMS quilt server capability in NEMS GFS • Enables parallel I/O without slowing down model integration • Installed NCEP Post in NEMS • Post runs in same executable as model • Post runs on NEMS quilt servers • Both GFS and NMM-B
