Has anyone done any B vs C comparison runs that would be suitable for showing, e.g. in a talk or poster? @JFLemieux73 @DeniseWorthen @dabail10

[JFLemieux73]

Hi Elizabeth, I don't have more material than what is already shown in the issues (e.g. issue #702).

[eclare108213]

I had just found #702! I can use the gx3 runs there, but if any of you have higher-res or other configuration comparisons, please share. Thx

[JFLemieux73]

There should be results somewhere for gx1 as well. I think a few other issues for idealized tests could also be interesting. Let me check.

[JFLemieux73]

You could check issues #697, #699 and #708.

[eclare108213]

Yes, those are all box tests. The gx3 will do, for now. Thanks!

[dabail10]

I did run gx1 tests with C and D. I didn't do any plots beyond the QC test though. We are not running C-grid in CESM.

How's this look? Happy to make changes, emphasize different things, etc.

I only tested C-grid in the context of why it wasn't reproducing the B-grid for the nuopc cap coupling. There is some validation being done w/ the C-grid by someone at GFDL. I'm not sure on how mature those efforts (and I can't find the relevant github user name). I can email you the contact info if you're interested.
