IntroductionECMWF is organising a 5-day Atlas code sprint event with a strictly limited number of developers from the NWP and Climate community are invited to participate in order to maximise productivity. The goal is to first introduce Atlas to the participants and understand how Atlas could be used to develop or enhance the participant’s software.Atlas aims to be a common library, used within many Earth system model components across the community, and a critical requirement for Atlas is to support the necessary grids, efficient parallel data structures, and remapping routines to couple the various Earth system model components. Although Atlas supports any unstructured grid, certain grids like the Cubed Sphere, Icosahedral grid, and the ORCA (tripolar) grids could be better supported by taking their structure into consideration; in particular stencil-based operators could benefit. This code sprint will therefore focus on implementing and/or supporting participant’s grids and data structures, including staggering with help from Atlas’ primary developers. Participation is by invitation only and to be confirmed by 17th of February to willem.deconinck@ecmwf.int Note
