Status of the intercomparison exercice: Where are we ?
• Agenda:
– Shift (one month now) for availability of products
– Not clear view of “intercomparison strength of work” in the different areas (ie how many groups plan a dedicated work looking at more than their own hindcast? )
– Target: define a deadline to be prepared for the SymposiumValidation and intercomparison of analysis and forecast productsF. Hernandez (Mercator-Ocean), G. Brassington (BoM), J. Cummings (NRL), L. Crosnier (Mercator-Ocean), F. Davidson
(DFO), S. Dobricic (ICMCC), P. Hacker (Univ. of Hawaii), M. Kamachi (JMA), K. A. Lisæter (NERSC), M. Martin (UK Met Office)
• Availability of products (end of July ?????)• Availability of intercomparison results (mid October ????)
– Managing the outcomes:
• How do we take profit from feedbacks ? • Initiative to keep on this activity?

• Summing-up results:
Results are presented at the GODAE Final Symposium. A manuscript for proceedings has to be prepared for the 1st of October 2008.
Framework of the document :
– Reminding previous “MERSEA Strd1” intercomparison in the framework of GODAE (but allready published !)
– Description (half a page) of each system involved in the comparison (each partner provides its contribution)
– Results presented by area… All areas are covered.
– Particular attention paid to data used for the validation (recom. of E. Harrison, M. Johnson)
IGST XIII – Washington 2/06/2008
Status of the intercomparison exercice: open questions
• Intercomparison… what next?
– Interest for looking at the same data set (FEB-MARCH-APRIL 08) but for forecast analysis (BLK, HYC… MER?)
– Interest to keep on in the future with some diagnostics (tbd)
– No idea yet about the way we are going to feedback after the intercomparisons exercice…. But for sure it will offer many outcomes…
