As usual the teaching and the materials are in English and there are no fees for participation.

The objective of this PATC course is to cover the basics of a high performance computing (HPC) environment oriented towards earth science applications, specifically chemical weather modelling and climate modelling.

More precisely, the course will cover:

• Introduction to earth science fundamentals and modelling;
• Basic usage of an HPC environment: shell, compilers, libraries, file systems, queuing system;
• Build and configure targeted earth science applications with the NMMB/BSC-CTM chemical transport model and with the EC-EARTH climate model;
• Execute and monitor numerical experiments using a workflow manager;
• Analyse and visualise model outputs with a wide set of tools.
