Support for Community Codes

The SDL Climate Science provides support to software developments of widely used community codes relevant for the ESM community.

Codes developed at SDL Climate Science

JURASSIC

The Juelich Rapid Spectral Simulation Code (JURASSIC) is a fast infrared radiative transfer model for the analysis of atmospheric remote sensing measurements.

MPTRAC

Massive-Parallel Trajectory Calculations (MPTRAC) is a Lagrangian particle dispersion model for the analysis of atmospheric transport processes in the free troposphere and stratosphere.

Codes developed by the Community

FESOM2

FESOM2 (Finite-Element/volumE Sea ice-Ocean Model) is a multi-resolution sea ice-ocean model that solves the equations of motion on unstructured meshes. The model is developed and supported by researchers at the Alfred Wegener Institute, Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research (AWI), in Bremerhaven, Germany.

ICON

The ICON modelling framework is a joint project between the German Weather Service and the Max Planck Institute for Meteorology for developing a unified next-generation global numerical weather prediction and climate modelling system. The ICON model has been introduced into DWD’s operational forecast system in January 2015.

MESSy

The Modular Earth Submodel System (MESSy) is a software providing a framework for a standardized, bottom-up implementation of Earth System Models (or parts of those) with flexible complexity.

Support for Community Codes

WRF

The Weater Research and Forecasting Model (WRF) is a state of the art mesoscale numerical weather prediction system designed for both atmospheric research and operational forecasting applications.
