Standard configurations are 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.

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.

Global Atmosphere 6.0/Global Coupled 2.0

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. More details about UKESM1 and how to access it are available here.

Performance
