Facilitating reproducible science: a workflow for setting up SUMMA simulations anywhere on the globe
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Setting up earth system models can be cumbersome and time-consuming. Model-agnostic tasks are typically the same regardless of model used and include definition and delineation of the modeling domain and preprocessing of forcing data and parameter fields. Model-specific tasks include conversion of preprocessed data into model-specific formats and generation of model inputs and run scripts. We present a workflow that includes both model-agnostic and model-specific steps needed to set up the Structure for Unifying Multiple Modeling Alternatives (SUMMA) anywhere on the planet, with the goal of providing a baseline SUMMA set up that can easily be adapted for specific study purposes. The workflow therefore uses open source data with global coverage to derive basin delineations, climatic forcing, and geophysical inputs such as topography, soil and land use parameters. The use of open source data, an open source model and an open source workflow that relies on established software packages results in transparent and reproducible scientific outputs, open to verification and adaptation by the community. The workflow substantially reduces model configuration time for new studies and paves the way for more and stronger scientific contributions in the long term, as it lets the modeler focus on science instead of set up.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
