Description View
Import / Export: When upgrading from a previous version of EdGCM it may be useful to export your old simulations and import them, along with theiir output, into your new copy of EdGCM. This same process can also be used to share simulations with colleagues.
Setup Simulations: This tutorial introduces you to the setup simulations window. This is the most complex part of EdGCM but understanding it is required in order to create your own GCM experiments. You should start with this tutorial if EdGCM is installed and you do not need to transfer data from an old installation
Analyze Output: Learn how to use the Analyze Output window. This window is used after a run is completed to select the data you would like to visualize. It requires an understanding of post-processing methods including averaging and extracting variables
EVA: Learn how to use EVA, the EdGCM Visualization Application. EVA allows you to make maps of any of the data from the Analyze Output window. EVA also lets you do more, including making differencing maps that clearly highlight the change between two experiments

Tuesday, 10 April 2007
The EdGCM development team is proud to announce the release of EdGCM 3.1. This release includes new video tutorials, an improved Mac OS X installer (drag-and-drop), an updated EVA, and numerous bug fixes and enhancements.

If you are using EdGCM 3.0 or earlier, please upgrade immediately. If you are new to EdGCM, feel free to check out our tutorials, then download the software, and then meet us on our forums to learn more. If you are a hacker interested in climate science and powerful software, feel free to browse our development site.
 
How to Cite EdGCM Print
Written by Ken Mankoff   
Wednesday, 25 January 2006
EdGCM is a tool for research and should be cited with any results. If you wish to provide a citation, credit, or reference to EdGCM, the following suggestions might help.

To credit the project/software/website, use

The EdGCM Cooperative Project of Columbia University
http://edgcm.columbia.edu


In a case where you are making a specific reference to the climate model that is run by EdGCM, the credit goes to "NASA/GISS and Columbia University". Note the following sample statement:

"The climate model at the core of EdGCM was developed at NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) and is an updated version of the GISS Model II described in Hansen et al., 1983."

As the model may change with bug fixes and improvements, we suggest you provide the version of EdGCM used in your research.
 
EdGCM: The Project Print

Saturday, 31 December 2005
ImageThe EdGCM Project develops and distributes a research-quality global climate model (GCM) with a user-friendly interface that runs on desktop computers. Anyone can explore the subject of climate change using the same methods and tools that scientists employ. The software allows users to experience the full scientific process including: designing experiments, setting up and running computer simulations, post-processing output, using scientific visualization to display results, and creating scientific manuscripts ready for publishing to the web.
