= UM Configurations = = UKESM1 release notes [[TOC]][[Image()]] Standard configurations available either as example jobs in the UMUI or Rose suites in the MOSRS rosie-u repository. == HadGEM2 == The HadGEM2 family of climate models represents the second generation of HadGEM configurations, with additional functionality including a well-resolved stratosphere and Earth System components. [wiki:UM/Configurations/HadGEM2 HadGEM2 (Earth System, Carbon-Cycle, Coupled and AMIP configurations)] == HadGEM3 == The HadGEM3 family of models comprises a range of specific model configurations incorporating different levels of complexity but with a common physical framework. The HadGEM3 family includes a coupled atmosphere-ocean configuration, with or without a vertical extension in the atmosphere to include a well-resolved stratosphere, and an Earth-System configuration which includes dynamic vegetation, ocean biology and atmospheric chemistry. [wiki:UM/Configurations/GA6.0-GC2.0 "Global Atmosphere 6.0/Global Coupled 2.0"] [wiki:UM/Configurations/GA7.0-GC3.0 "Global Atmosphere 7.0/Global Coupled 3.0"] == UKESM1 == UKESM1 is the first release of the UK Earth System Model. Built as a joint venture by the Met Office Hadley Centre and the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC), UKESM1 consists of the HadGEM3 coupled physical climate model (see [#HadGEM3 above]) plus additional components that model key biogeochemical, chemistry, aerosol and vegetation processes. Details about the UKESM1 release and its standard suites are available here: == Performance == The performance of various standard configurations on ARCHER can be found on the [wiki:UM/Configurations/Performance performance] page.
