Atmospheric Modeling Group
The Atmospheric modeling group at NCSA is a member of the
Environmental Hydrology Team,
one of the
Application Technologies
Teams with the
National Computation Science Alliance.
This team is concerned with the development of a distributed
infrastructure for coupling atmospheric, land surface, river, bay and
ecosystem models. This is being enabled by high-performance
parallel computing and communications on the
Grid. Specific technologies being employed include
Globus, desktop
(Java-based VisAD) to
immersive virtual visualization
(CAVE5D and
Virtual Director)
and
HDF5 .
