MOMBA 1.1 – a high-resolution Baltic Sea configuration of GFDL’s Modular Ocean Model Geoscientific Model Development DOI 10.5194/gmd-7-1713-2014 18 August 2014 We present a new coupled ocean-circulation–ice model configuration of the Baltic Sea. The model features, contrary to most existing configurations, a high horizontal resolution of 1 nautical mile (1.85 km), which is eddy-resolving over much of the domain.

Assessing climate model software quality: a defect density analysis of three models Geoscientific Model Development DOI 10.5194/gmd-5-1009-2012 9 August 2012 We found that the climate models all have very low defect densities compared to well-known, similarly sized open-source projects. We discuss the implications of our findings for the assessment of climate model software trustworthiness. Read more
