The spack-stack package is a collaborative effort between the NOAA Environmental Modeling Center (EMC), the UCAR Joint Center for Satellite Data Assimilation (JCSDA), and the Earth Prediction Innovation Center (EPIC). spack-stack is designed to support the various applications of the supporting agencies such as the Unified Forecast System (UFS) or the Joint Effort for Data assimilation Integration (JEDI).

New This Release
- Support for the Navy Nautilus HPC
- Experimental support for MSU's Hercules and NOAA's Gaea C5
- Addition of jedi-neptune-env
- Addition of scotch to ufs-weather-model-env
- Update hdf5 and py-h5py to 1.14.0 and 3.7.0
- Major update from spack authoritative repository to a version close to the recently released spack v0.20.0
- Several small bug fixes and updates
Known Issues
- Build error: mapl 2.35.2 does not build on the Navy Narwhal HPC, therefore removed ufs-weather-model-env and jedi-ufs-env from that system
- GNU environment on S4 currently not supported, because new HDF5 version requires newer MPI library than currently available (mpich-4.0.1); newer mpich versions cannot build mapl 2.35.2.
- Substituted wgrib2 2.0.8 with 3.1.1 on Hercules and Nautilus
