Earth System Modeling: The Earth System Modeling (ESM) Program in the Climate and Environmental Sciences Division (CESD), Office of Biological and Environmental Research (BER) of the Office of Science (SC), U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), supports research to develop and exercise innovative methods of representing and coupling components of the Earth’s climate system, in order to provide a predictive capability to underpin the Nation’s societal and energy planning. Innovative methods span a variety of topics, e.g., the development of increasingly complex representations of climate systems, coupling these with “human” systems and drivers as needed to improve climate simulation fidelity, and the application of next-generation computational methods to facilitate and to accelerate model computational performance on DOE’s current and next-generation NERSC and Leadership Class Facility (LCF) computers. Toward these goals, the ESM Program recently launched a DOE-Laboratory-led project to develop the Accelerated Climate Model for Energy (ACME). ACME aims to design and perform high-resolution climate simulations efficiently on LCF computers, in order to advance research on the coupled Earth system and to inform societal planning. The ACME model codes and outputs will be released regularly to the broader community. This FOA invites community input into ACME design and development, by soliciting applications that would develop and investigate the climate system in the following areas: atmospheric chemistry, convection, ocean biogeochemistry, tidal and estuary representations, representations of land disturbances, and improvements to particular system-coupling treatments.
