DSC 180ab B03 - Project wrap up and debrief

Wrap up week! Great job everyone.

Topics

You will be touching on the following topics.

• Making a final determination on replication
• Presenting what you learned from running and differentiating JCM
• Your plan for Phase II

Tasks

• Create a final Phase I presentation. It should be comprehensive and can build on the replication presentation from week 3.
• Finalise your Phase II proposal.
• Enjoy cupcakes during the final section meeting/presentation! On me.

Final Presentation

Make sure your presentation is polished and answers the following questions.

1. Could your group replicate the findings of the ClimateBench paper, even if only partially? Explain the factors behind your success or failure. For instance, did you disagree with any of the methodology used in the paper?
2. What did your SPEEDY-JCM experiments tell you about forcing, feedback, and climate sensitivity, and how do they compare with NorESM2?
3. Present the final visualisations you created during the project.
4. Summarise the key concepts and topics you gained insight into through this project, including what you learned about using AI assistants for scientific work.
5. Present your Phase II proposal: the question, the data and models, what success looks like, and the main risks.
