List of candidates for documentation pages

[jcurtis2]

Here is a list of possible things that would be potentially useful to be covered. Not an exhaustive list given my lack of awareness/expertise in many aspects of atmospheric science. Looking for anyone with experience and the ability to describe the configuration/compilation/usage on Keeling for the following:

• Improvements to WRF page
• Python and configuring Jupyter lab/notebook
• MPAS (https://github.com/MPAS-Dev/MPAS-Model)
• CESM
• VisIt (https://wci.llnl.gov/simulation/computer-codes/visit)
• VAPOR (https://www.vapor.ucar.edu/)
• Vis5D (https://www.ssec.wisc.edu/~billh/vis5d.html)
• HYSPLIT / FLEXPART / STILT (https://www.ready.noaa.gov/HYSPLIT_linuxtrial.php)
• AERMOD (https://www.epa.gov/scram/air-quality-dispersion-modeling-preferred-and-recommended-models)
• CMAQ (https://www.epa.gov/cmaq)
• CM1 (https://www2.mmm.ucar.edu/people/bryan/cm1/)
• GEOS-chem (https://geos-chem.seas.harvard.edu/)
• Using Visual studio code on Keeling (https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/ssh)
• Using Dask on Keeling compute nodes (https://www.dask.org/)
• CDO
• NCO (https://nco.sourceforge.net/nco.html)
• Installing and managing Julia packages/environment
• Debugging with valgrind (https://valgrind.org/)
• Code profiling options such as gprof (https://sourceware.org/binutils/docs/gprof/)
• git basics (or a list to external resources)
• ssh keys for accessing Keeling
• MATLAB ?
• Containers (docker, singularity)
• Databases on compute nodes
• Tutorial on using GPU nodes
• Options for maintaining a personal research website for Graduate students (publish.illinois, github.io, atmos.illinois.edu via monsoon? and redirects)
