PROFILE

David Hohn

Worked on the ESMValGroup/ESMValCore repository to enhance the reliability of climate data processing by addressing two critical bugs over a two-month period. Focused on stabilizing the handling of the GISS-E2-1-G-CC Tos variable, implemented targeted fixes to ensure correct units and values, and introduced comprehensive tests to validate edge cases and regression scenarios. Later, improved metadata integrity for the CESM2 (msftmz) dataset by refactoring coordinate mapping logic, enabling accurate translation of numerical region indices to descriptive basin names. Utilized Python, the Iris library, and scientific computing techniques to strengthen data validation and support reproducible oceanographic and climate analyses.

March 2025 monthly summary for ESMValCore focusing on stabilizing the GISS-E2-1-G-CC Tos variable handling. Completed a targeted bug fix to correct units and values of the tos variable for the GISS-E2-1-G-CC esm-piControl workflow, with added tests to validate correctness. This work reduces risk of incorrect model outputs and strengthens the reliability of the ESMValCore processing chain.
