Objectives
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 and parallel computing.
- Configure targeted earth science applications with the NMMB-MONARCH atmosphere chemistry model;
- Execute and monitor numerical experiments using a workflow manager;
- Analyse and visualise model outputs with a wide set of tools.
