Zusammenfassung |
The Modular Earth Submodel System (MESSy) is an open, multi-institutional
project providing a strategy for developing comprehensive Earth System Models
(ESMs) with highly flexible complexity. The first version of the MESSy
infrastructure and process submodels, mainly focusing on atmospheric
chemistry, has been successfully coupled to an atmospheric General
Circulation Model (GCM) expanding it into an Atmospheric Chemistry GCM
(AC-GCM) for nudged simulations and into a Chemistry Climate Model (CCM) for
climate simulations.
Here, we present the second development cycle of MESSy, which comprises (1)
an improved and extended infrastructure for the basemodel independent
coupling of process-submodels, (2) new, highly valuable diagnostic
capabilities for the evaluation with observational data and (3) an improved
atmospheric chemistry setup. With the infrastructural changes, we place the
headstone for further model extensions from a CCM towards a comprehensive
ESM. The new diagnostic submodels will be used for regular re-evaluations of
the continuously further developing model system. The updates of the
chemistry setup are briefly evaluated. |
