Overview

Repository containing all the model code (where possible) and associated scripts required to reproduce simulations our Global Change Biology paper.

DOI

Modelling protocol

Information provided to modellers to aid site parameterisation, as well as information on which variables to output, can be found in doc

Meteorolgical data

The met_data folder contains all the raw data given to modellers to run the 4 experiments used carried out in the paper. Note this directory has some large files in it (>50 meg).

Model code

For some models it is not possible to share code due to ownership issues, e.g. O-CN. In these cases, models have set up their own repositories and the relevant model sub-directories contains README files which point to these stored repositories.

Model checking scripts

The top-level scripts directory contains the model checking scripts (check_model_output.py; check_model_output_AVG.py) to make sure post-processed outputs are sensible. There is also a script (generate_pickled_model_output.py) to generate a big (pandas) dataframe and then turn this into a binary object to allow easy access of all of the model output inside a script. Note the checking script require this binary object to be built first.

Model outputs

Model outpus are each of the model/outputs sub-directories, e.g. GDAY.
