# OGGM Open Meeting

###### tags: `oggm` `meeting notes`

About the format:
- **Flash updates**: quick round of short updates (~2 minutes), request of additional agenda items for longer discussions
- **Group agenda points**: longer, open discussion points of the day. Could be something that needs input from all participants, a discussion about model choices, or a prepared presentation from one of the members. Note that **our goal is to keep "Flash updates" + "Open agenda" under one hour** in order to keep a dynamic meeting.
- **Specific discussion:** more technical items that may not be of interest to everyone (e.g. about a specific problem, master thesis, etc.). These will take place after the official part.
- **Action items**: what needs to be done after the meeting and by who
- **Move to next meeting**: items that couldn't be discussed this time

### Flash updates
- Anouk:
- I made a little change in the mass balance bias calibration of the subregions for my millenium long runs (not only excluding the tidewater glaciers, but now also the ice caps for the calibration procedure). The dynamic fully forced simulations are almost ready. I plan to start the SMB simulations today.
- Larissa:
- Finished and applied the new delta method using CMIP6 decadal and historical simulations, quite happy with results using them in SMB simulations. Considering the usefulness of using an initialized (Eis et al (2021)) dynamical model.
- Bea:
- Quick feedback on vEGUPICO presentation material. On holidays under lockdown so plenty of time to catch up with the OGGM team
- Nicolas:
- project GRUE (crane in English I guess) using OGGM-edu for teaching kids and municipalies
- Forrest:
- Still calibrating OGGM for tropical Andes. Now have annual glacier outlines 1984-2020, 12 GPR transects & 32 local DEMs for geodetic & topo input.
- Challenges (Maybe questions for group discussion??):
- Debris cover?
- Assigning different MB gradients for accumulation & ablation zones?
- excited to use the OGGM browser-based glacier simulator & OGGM-edu for teaching next week

- Lilian:
- did projections for Alpine glaciers with ISIMIP3b ssp126 and ssp370 with 200 draws for 6 "mb types",
- from where come the volume differences in the draws:
- I believe mainly from the geodetic uncertainties that I apply
- how to distinguish between the different uncertainties?
- are there uncertainties from the Farinotti2019 estimates for each glacier individually? one glen-a for a region or a glen-a for each glacier and draw?
- Fabien:
- not much news, getting ready for grenoble
- had a meeting with mitigation paper co-authors yesterday

### Group Agenda Points
- Journal club.

- started to do first projections with ISIMIP3b (WFDE5_CRU as historic climate dataset) using different simple mb module variations
- 200 pf/melt-f combinations, for each inversion is repeated, but glen-a ice thickness calibration only once -> different starting volumes at rgi date
- how to calibrate glaciers without geodetic measurements?
- Larissa:
- Finished the ensemble runs for CMIP5, considering CMIP6. Open to discussion on that!
- My colleague Maria Pescí will join OGGM, interested in the liquid water storage
- Fabien:
- implemented a template for hydro stuff: https://github.com/OGGM/oggm/pull/1224 - it's working and is cool, but is too slow and needs love / work.
