Some interesting update: we recently decided to submit this work to #JOSS. But it was rejected because the #GitHub history is less than 6 months. The fact is we wouldn't be able to finish this in 6 months without the help for AI.

In this year's #AGU, I will present the first global-scale unified #MPAS mesh framework for kilometer-scale two-way coupled land-river-ocean simulations.

GitHub - changliao1025/uraster: Convert raster to unstructured mesh structure Convert raster to unstructured mesh structure. Contribute to changliao1025/uraster development by creating an account on GitHub.

We recently released the beta version of URaster on GitHub and PyPI:
github.com/changliao102...
and pypi.org/project/uras...
This package enables us to set up unstructured mesh-based hydrologic and land surface models.

E3SM all hands meeting takeaways:
Models are moving towards km-scale, even with AI/ML.

Working with a data file like this (in Excel) is why data cleaning is often underappreciated.

Data science might be one of the most overrated science because literally no science can get away without data.

Finally get it working again. Hopefully it would be useful for ongoing C++ project development.

It still does not work well with @GitHub Copilot.

10 quick tips for making your software outlive your job!

The preprint for our paper is now up at arXiv: arxiv.org/abs/2505.06484

Hopefully it'll help people who are forced to leave. Still good advice for researchers, in general.

This seems to be a good approach to track manuscript review status. JOSS also has a GitHub based review process.

How about assigning elevation to hexagon vertices instead of center?

This semester I gave a couple of lectures to the graduate students in University of Houston on water science. I was astonished to find out that several students are very interested in #DGGS #DGGRID for hydrologic research. The Q&A session was filled with in-depth discussions.

It literally took us five years to acknowledge that we need a better mesh for #landsurfacemodel. Regional refinement mesh for #LSM can be both efficient and effective for many scientific discoveries and applications. #ESS #PIMeeting #DOE
