Sim-SEQ Organization
Sim-SEQ is managed and coordinated by a small LBNL team , supported by an external scientific advisor (TBA). The model evaluation activities are centered around the Sim-SEQ Technical Team comprised of the RCSP modeling groups involved in conducting and modeling the field tests.

Manages and Coordinates model evaluation effort
Organizes and facilitates Sim-SEQ Technical Team video-conferences and workshops, hosts a web site for sharing of data and presentations.
Performs status review of modeling plans, including modeling approaches, schedules, and code capabilities.
Develops performance metrics and acceptance criteria for comparison of predictions and measurements.
Conducts timely review, comparison, and evaluation of model results.
Mediates discussion about model improvement and develops list of lessons learned.
Summarizes model comparison results in reports.
→ Sim-SEQ Technical Team is involved in all activities listed above.
The Sim-SEQ Technical Team comprises members of the RCSP modeling groups, as well as the LBNL team and external scientific advisor. The Sim-SEQ Technical Team convenes regularly, either via video-conferences and occasional workshops, both of which are organized and facilitated by LBNL. The Sim-SEQ Technical Team meetings are the main venue for discussion and comparative evaluation of models and model results, as well as for promoting cooperation and interaction between the different teams.
The current members of the Sim-SEQ Technical Team are:
