First Time User // Calibration of SCC Estimates

Hello,

I am a first-time user and trying to get acquainted with both Julia and MimiGIVE. I was able to install Juia, add packages and run the default model. However, when I run the default model, I got result that seemed far too low. I was expecting to get something closer to the $185/ton that is found the SCC explorer tool. Any tips for calibrating my model to make sure it’s running correctly? I was following sections 2a (fully coupled model) and 4a (deterministic scc calculation) on the Github repository.

scc = MimiGIVE.compute_scc(year=2020)
26.166523152489944

scc = MimiGIVE.compute_scc(year=2030)
38.34888259268095

Best,
Aaron

Hi Aaron,

Thanks for the question! Let’s move discussion to the MimiGIVE Github repository just so I can keep straight model-specific versus Mimi questions. Of course this is a bit of both, so no worries, but I’ll move it there and then answer.

Cheers,
Lisa

Thanks, Lisa! Do you know where might I be able to find this within the Github repository?

Nevermind, just found it…thank you!!

Sorry! Yes link is above!

@afoxwolfe I know this query sort of spans the boundary between a model-specific scientific question and a more Mimi modeling general question, so I’m sorry if moving it over made that confusing! Feel free to follow up there with any further questions, I check both the issues there and the forum here, and generally try to sort things by software/modeling questions here, more model-specific scientific questions in the models, but of course that line gets blurry

Thank you so much, Lisa! I just replied in the Github repository! Admittedly, it includes a follow up question that is better suited for the forum. If you agree, I can move that follow up question over here in a new topic!
