O5.1.1 SingleColumnModel interfaces required for ClimaEarth prototype

[LenkaNovak]

The Climate Modeling Alliance

Software Design Issue 📜

Implement SingleColumnModel interfaces required for ClimaEarth prototype (1 dt), use BOMEX and ClimaOcean SCM as examples. Goal: completes sim.

Purpose

We need to demonstrate the simplest case for coupling the Clima component models, namely ClimaAtmos and ClimaOcean. This issue focuses on interfaces only (few timesteps using the Single column models suffices).

More details to follow.

Cost/Benefits/Risks

People and Personnel

• Lead: @glwagner
• Collaborators: @LenkaNovak @juliasloan25

Components

1. Illustrate how to set up the atmos and ocean columns (height, number of grid points, variable grid spacing).
2. Illustrate how to change shared parameters via ClimaParams.
3. Illustrate how to configure the physics of the single column models (configure turbulence parameterizations, Coriolis forces, etc).
4. Take a few time steps, showing that fluxes are computed and exchanged correctly, and illustrating how to inspect the solution (probably using callbacks).

Inputs

Results and Deliverables

• Documentation detailing functions and showing how to run simulation
• Driver that runs coupled atmos/ocean simulation and produces animation

Task Breakdown And Schedule

• Merge Encapsulate surface conditions setting functionality so it can be reused ClimaAtmos.jl#2855
• Add SingleColumnAtmosOceanModel example Adds SingleColumnAtmosOceanModel for single column coupled simulations #5
