| This technical note presents an overview of the Chemistry-Climate
Model Validation Diagnostic (CCMVal-Diag) tool for model evaluation.
The CCMVal-Diag tool is a flexible and extensible open source package
that facilitates the complex evaluation of global models.
Models can be compared to other models, ensemble members (simulations
with the same model),
and/or many types of observations. The initial construction
and application is to coupled chemistry-climate models (CCMs)
participating in CCMVal, but the evaluation of climate models
that submitted output to the Coupled Model Intercomparison
Project (CMIP) is also possible. The package has been used to
assist with analysis of simulations for the 2010 WMO/UNEP Scientific
Ozone Assessment and the SPARC Report on the Evaluation of CCMs.
The CCMVal-Diag tool is described and examples of how it functions
are presented, along with links to detailed descriptions, instructions
and source code. The CCMVal-Diag tool supports model development
as well as quantifies model changes, both for different versions
of individual models and for different generations of community-wide
collections of models used in international assessments.
The code allows further extensions by different users for different
applications and types, e.g. to other components of the Earth system.
User modifications are encouraged and easy to perform with minimum
coding. |
