The Community Earth System Model (CESM) is a coupled climate model for simulating the earth's climate system. Composed of four separate sub-models simultaneously simulating the earth's atmosphere, ocean, land surface ice and sea ice, and one central coupler component, CESM allows researchers to conduct fundamental research into the earth's past, present and future climate states [1]. This report describes the work undertaken under the embedded CSE programme of the ARCHER UK National Supercomputing Service [2], and was entitled “Porting and Enabling use of the Community Earth System Model on ARCHER”, where the PIs were Dr Massimo Bollasina and Dr Mike Mineter, University of Edinburgh, with the technical work undertaken by the author, between the beginning of April and mid-November, 2014.
