class compass.landice.tests.ismip7_calibration.Ismip7Calibration(mpas_core)

A test group for calibrating MALI’s sub-shelf melt parameterization against the ISMIP7 Antarctic ice-ocean protocol (Reese et al., Sect. 4.2)

The protocol asks each ice-sheet model to calibrate the free parameter of its melt module against four objective-function terms – basin-integrated present-day melt, melt by buttressing bin, the warm-minus-cold sensitivity of ocean models, and observed Amundsen ice-shelf melt – and to report the 5th, 50th and 95th percentiles of the resulting parameter distribution.

__init__(mpas_core)

Create the test group

Parameters:

mpas_core (compass.landice.Landice) – the MPAS core that this test group belongs to

Methods

__init__(mpas_core)	Create the test group
add_test_case(test_case)	Add a test case to the test group
