JEDI-SKYLAB 2.0
JCSDA SkyLab 2.0 is the second roll-up release that provides integrated Earth System Data Assimilation capability via a unified end-to-end ecosystem including a single code build, workflow, data store, and diagnostics dashboard. Initial capabilities are demonstrated for the following components: atmosphere, ocean, sea-ice, soil moisture, snow, aerosols, and composition. A diagnostics dashboard is available at https://skylab.jcsda.org/
The main SkyLab upgrades for release 2.0 include:
