PROFILE
Bettina Gier
Contributed to the ESMValGroup/ESMValTool repository by delivering five features over five months, focusing on climate data analysis, scientific visualization, and workflow modernization. Developed a Zero Emissions Commitment diagnostic tool using Python, enabling cross-model temperature analysis after net CO2 emissions cease. Led the deprecation of Julia-based diagnostics, streamlining the codebase and updating documentation for sustainability. Built a dynamic figure gallery for recipe documentation with CSS and Python scripting, enhancing user experience. Integrated CAMS CO2 fluxes through new configuration files and data processing scripts, and managed dependency upgrades via YAML, ensuring compatibility and reproducibility across Linux and macOS environments.

Mar 1, 2026Month: 2026-03 Key accomplishments: - Feature delivered: Dependency upgrade for ESMValCore compatibility. Upgraded ESMValCore from 2.14.0rc1 to 2.14.0rc2 in environment.yml and environment_osx.yml to ensure compatibility with latest features and fixes. - Commits: ffcd38edce6962b4cc400453b6e439ced95c89ab ("Use ESMValCore v2.14.0rc2" (#4372)). Major bugs fixed: - None reported this month. Overall impact and business value: - Improved runtime compatibility and reproducibility across Linux and macOS environments, reducing deployment risk and enabling smoother adoption of latest ESMValCore capabilities. - Aligns development and release pipelines with current core features, supporting downstream analyses and user workloads with fewer environment-related failures. Technologies and skills demonstrated: - Dependency management and environment configuration (YAML), version pinning, and commit-based traceability. - Cross-platform consistency (Linux/macOS) and preparation for upcoming features in ESMValCore.

May 1, 2025Month: 2025-05 – ESMValTool: deprecation of Julia-based diagnostics completed as part of the ongoing modernization and simplification of the toolchain. Key actions included retiring Julia recipes and diagnostic scripts by moving them to archive, updating the user-facing documentation to reflect retirement, and signaling deprecation within the ESMValTool workflow. The change is documented in commit 58fd0b8ece981bc97c4fbd213b11f2228d90db28 with message “Retire julia recipes (#4045)”.
