SCALE project [website]

SCALE, which stands for Scalable Computing for Advanced Library and Environment, is a basic library for weather and climate model of the earth and planets aimed to be widely used in various models. The SCALE library is developed with co-design by researchers of computational science and computer science.

SCALE-RM is a regional atmospheric simulation model for weather and climate, based on SCALE.
