They showcase the mean surface pressure over a 10-year period and highlight the distinct responses from the various ensemble members when warming the planet. JZ points out the different asymmetries using GPU and CPU.

AD adds that a longer mean reveals a recurring variability, resembling a cycle. They conducted a two-year run to observe this pattern.

### Mikael Stellio
MS provides an update on ICON-22, where he specifically focuses on the optimization of the ICON-HAM port for GPUs. MS presents [plots showcasing the results of a 6-hour simulation](https://polybox.ethz.ch/index.php/s/WF4JiBulij5UqXF/download?path=%2F2023-06-12&files=ICON_Meeting_Stellio_cpugpu.pdf). The main effort took place in the wet deposition part. The improvements made there have propagated to other schemes. Currently, MS is working on the two-moment microphysics scheme (Lohmann), which involves many calls of very small subroutines that are not efficient on GPUs.

### Marco Arpagaus
MA gives an update on ICON-22, mentioning the ongoing challenges they face. The machine they are working with has been causing difficulties, particularly with the restoration process, which leads to delays. As a result, the start of the pre-operational phase has been shifted to the beginning of October.

On the physics side, MA notes that they are currently running on Balfrin and admits to have being less careful with initialization. They discovered that the temperature of the soil was taken over from ICON-EU, resulting in heating in the lower soil. The orographies did not match, leading to elevated terrain that was too high, causing a bias of approximately 1K. But they hope that has been resolved now. MA expresses gratitude to JJ for their assistance in fixing the issue.

### William Sawyer
WS is trying to keep an overview. He starts with the [ICON port to LUMI](https://polybox.ethz.ch/index.php/s/WF4JiBulij5UqXF/download?path=%2F2023-06-12&files=2023_05_ICON2LUMI_Kornblueh_BSC.pdf), which is being done by the Max Planck institute, CSC, and others. This endeavor turned into a significant project, and although they have something running, they face challenges as they rely on the Cray compiler, which has significant bugs. On a positive note, progress has been made, and they have a 1.25km test running. WS emphasizes the hope that HPE can fix the compiler bugs soon, preferably before LUMI gets decommissioned. However, there is still a lot of work to be done. To assist with the project, Cray has provided an entire person to help out.
