Abstract:
We propose to develop, integrate and deploy a Grid-based system which will allow us: (i) to flexibly couple together state-of-the-art components to form a unified ESM, (ii) to execute the resulting ESM on the Grid, (iii) to share the distributed data produced by simulation runs, and (iv) to provide high-level open access to the system, creating and supporting virtual organisations of Earth System modellers. The project will deliver both a flexible Grid-based architecture, which will provide substantial long-term benefits to the Earth system modelling community (and others who need to combine disparate models into a coupled whole), and also new scientific understanding from versions of the ESM generated and applied in the project.
