Welcome to the FATES Discussion board

👋 Welcome!

We’re using Discussions as a place to connect with other members of our community and to provide a space for interactions that don't quite fit into Issues. Please feel free to use Discussions to:

• Ask questions about how to use FATES
• Ask for help identifying potential issues
• Share ideas for features or improvements
• Engage and collaborate with other community members

Please help us in welcoming others and being open-minded.

Getting Help

Please check out the FATES documentation. It covers many aspects of FATES and includes a User's Guide, a Developer's Guide, and a Technical Reference detailing the scientific basis for the model. If you don't see what you're looking for there or in an existing thread here, please feel free to post a new discussion thread to address your question.

You can also join the FATES Google Group to receive email updates about forthcoming release tags, regular meeting notifications, and other important announcements: https://groups.google.com/g/fates_model

Since FATES is a component to host land models (HLMs), it is also highly encouraged to check out the relevant documentation and Discussion forums:

• CTSM Github Discussions
• E3SM Github Discussions
• CESM Discussion Forums

Issues versus discussion

Are you uncertain if your post should be an Issue or a Discussion? Post where ever you feel most appropriate! We can covert discussions to issues and vice versa to locate the item in which ever place feels most appropriate after that the fact.
