1st ARTMIP Workshop#

Date: 10 - 11 May 2017

Location: Scripps Institute of Oceanography

Goals

  • To create ARTMIP framework

  • Choose common data set for initial catalogues

  • Gain community input on key science questions

  • Gain community input on AR metrics for ARTMIP

Outcomes

  • Tier structure established
  • Chose MERRA-2 1980-2017 for Tier 1 catalogues
  • Designed a 1-month “proof of concept” trial run to work out bugs with Tier 1 design. February 2017 was chosen due to high AR frequency in PNW during this time period
  • Chose CAM5 25km LLBL climate change runs for Tier 2 climate catalogues
  • Key science questions are related to:
    1. Uncertainty regarding AR climatology
    2. The relationship between ARs and precipitation
    3. How these may be altered under future climate change scenarios
  • Fundamental metrics include AR frequency, duration, intensity, and the climatology of these quantities
  • Co-chairs will lead two papers:
    • Outlining experimental design
    • Scientific results from Tier 1
