Optimized Infrastructure for the Earth System Prediction Capability
Abstract
The Earth System Prediction Capability (ESPC) interagency program was established in 2010 as an effort to improve collaboration across the federally sponsored environmental research and operational prediction communities. The ESPC goal is to coordinate scientific development and operational implementation of improved global prediction at the weather to climate interface. Part of the ESPC role is to advocate for and support the basic foundations of modeling and data systems, such as the computational efficiency of models and common coupled system architectures. The Optimized Infrastructure for ESPC (OI for ESPC) project is working to advance the computational foundations of ESPC through three integrative activities. These activities are designed to leverage numerical libraries across agencies; to explore the impacts of emerging computing platforms on coupled model infrastructure; and to reconcile conventions across different model architectures. The activities are serving as a starting point for a broader effort funded through the 2013 NOPP program Advancing Air-Ocean-Land-Ice Global Coupled Prediction on Emerging Computational Architectures (AOLI).
