In this version 5 packages built with Spack for use on compute nodes: esmf 8.4.2 moab 5.5.0 nco 5.1.7 tempestextremes 2.2.1 tempestremap 2.2.0 Many packages have been updated. In addition to <code>esmf</code>, <code>moab</code>, <code>nco</code> and <code>tempestremap</code> listed above, notable updates include: chemdyg 0.1.4 e3sm_diags 2.9.0 e3sm_to_cmip 1.10.0 geometric_features 1.2.0 mache 1.17.0 mpas-analysis 1.9.0 mpas_tools 0.21.0 xcdat 0.5.0 zppy 2.3.0 zstash 1.4.0 New and improved ChemDyg : This new package provides diagnostics for the interactive gas-phase chemistry, newly available in E3SM, to support routine testing and evaluation of the chemistry performance. E3SM Diags : This new release adds one new set: mixed phase partition diagnostics (mp_partition), also known as T5050 diagnostics. The ARM diagnostics (arm_diags) set is enhanced with new aerosol-cloud-interaction and aerosol activation metrics developed by ARM infrastructure team. The aerosol budget diagnostics (aerosol_budget) is updated by including global mean burdens, source/sink budgets and lifetimes for aerosol species contributed by Aerosol Working Group. GPCP v3.2 precipitation data is added to replace an older version (v2.2). Surface relative humidity and wind speed data set derived from ERA5 are added as standard evaluation sets. e3sm_to_cmip : The latest release includes a major revamp in the implementation of land and atm variable handlers. Handlers are now defined a single yaml file rather than as individual Python modules. More information can be found in the Variable Handlers documentation page . Other improvements include better error handling, a smoother development experience and updated documentation and examples. MPAS-Analysis : This release adds new waves analysis and switches from the older Rignot et al. (2013) to the newer Adusumilli et al. (2020) for Antarctic melt-rate observations as well as numerous minor enhancements and bug fixes. MOAB : Significant improvements in ...
