Objectives of the team
The ORCHIDEE project is dedicated to the development of the global Land Surface Model (LSM) ORCHIDEE and its use for a wide range of applications (from land surface processes to climate studies). The project is centered around a project team (referred to as the “ORCHIDEE project group”) whose main objective is to coordinate the strategy for the model development, maintenance, validation, distribution, and valorisation.

The ORCHIDEE project group:
Makes decisions about
-
- the developments that will integrate into the standard version of ORCHIDEE
- the order in which these developments will be included
Coordinates:
-
- Recruitment of engineers dedicated to model developments
- Planning of the different engineers resources
- Shared funding to hire some of the engineers
- Interactions with the different laboratories and institutes that are involved in the
development of the model, and in particular the « pôle de modélisation » of IPSL institute.
Guarantees:
-
- Regular deliveries of tagged versions of the model and their robustness at several computer centers (CCRT, IDRIS, LSCE)
- Scientific evaluation
- Updates of code documentation within these tagged versions
- Production, archiving and access to reference simulations (both uncoupled and coupled to the GCM)
- Training to new users through regular courses
- User support through several tools (wiki site, help list via email, etc)
Communicates to all partners (developers, users, partner institutes) information on :
-
- developement planning and their integration into the main code
- ongoing and forthcoming research projects that use ORCHIDEE
- mid-term strategy plans by annually updating this document.
Organises:
-
- an annual general assembly
- a project review with the partner institute managements
(LMD and LSCE laboratories, « pôle de modélisation » of IPSL)
