Overview
The complexity of the climate model systems, the CLM-Community is dealing with, is increasing more and more. On the one hand side, there is the well established COSMO-CLM model. On the other hand side, the CLM-Community is shifting to the new regional climate model ICON-CLM. Both systems do not only consist of the climate models COSMO-CLM or ICON-CLM themselves, respectively. They additionally require a pre-processor (INT2LM/iconremap), the pre-processor EXTPAR (via WebPEP), and further interfaces.
INT2LM / iconremap calculate the appropriate forcing data from large-scale, e.g. global data. EXTPAR provides the time invariant boundary data. Further interfaces are needed to convert data of global models available in different formats in INT2LM/iconremap-ready netCDF format.
Additionally, the starter package provides the environment to run a longer run-chain including pre- and postprocessing of the data.
Therefore, the CLM-Community Working Group (WG) SUPTECH has taken the following Community tasks
User training,
User Support,
Survey of documentation of code modifications, and
Maintaining CLM-Community specific needs in the "COSMO Standards for code development".
Responsibilities within the WG are distributed as follows:
Maintenance Homepage: Beate Geyer, Burkhardt Rockel
Survey of scientific documentation of major changes in CCLM: Andreas Will
COSMO-CLM code maintenance: Burkhardt Rockel
ICON-CLM code maintenance: Ingo Kirchner, Mariano Mertens
INT2LM code maintenance: Burkhardt Rockel
EXTPAR (EXTernal PARameters): Katherine Osterried (source code), Burkhardt Rockel (web interface "WebPEP" , Web frontend for Processing of External Parameters)
PPP (Pre-Pre-Processing scripts and programs): Andreas Dobler
Preparation of user training and training material: Burkhardt Rockel, Susanne Brienen, Kristina Trusilova, Merja Tölle
Users looking for help are asked to try to find support on the CLM-Homepage first. The WG SUPTECH has established a SUPPORT page.

Technical Test Suite
The technical test suite is in development and test phase. It will be made available later. Please contact Burkhardt Rockel (HZ Geesthacht) in the case you want to apply it already now.
Status of CLM-Community model versions is:
development version: version which passed technical tests and contains new model developments and corrections. It is shared with the model developers for further meteorological tests and acceptance of the implementation by the developers
test version: version accepted by the developers, which passed the development specific tests. It is delivered to those evaluating new model version.
released version: positively evaluated test version.
Former CLM-Community Technical Advisory Group (TAG)
The Technical Advisory Group was closed by decision on March 11, 2016 at COSMO User Seminar.
