CCSM Climatological Data Atmosphere Model v.6.0
 Entry ID: NCAR_DATM6

[ Get Service ]
[ Update this Record ]

Summary
Abstract: CCSM coupled model is based on a framework which divides the complete climate
system into component models connected by a coupler. This design requires four
component models -- atmosphere, sea-ice, land, and ocean -- each connected to
the Coupler, and each exchanging data with the Coupler only.

The Climatological Data Atmosphere Model (datm) functions as the atmosphere
component in a CCSM ... View entire text
