OpenIFS@Home

OpenIFS@Home is a platform where certain lower resolution configurations of OpenIFS can be run on the volunteer computing network overseen by the climateprediction.net team at Oxford.  The key advantage of this approach is the sheer number of volunteer machines available; truely massive ensembles of forecasts can be run using this approach opening up new possibilities for research in NWP and seasonal forecasting.

These pages describe to how to prepare the OpenIFS files to be uploaded to the CPDN OpenIFS@Home portal. For more information about using OpenIFS on the climateprediction.net platform, please refer to climateprediction.net webpages, or contact their support team.
