# Collection of Information on Climatic Models

This is my note book on learning about climatic models, specifically [CMIP5](https://data.giss.nasa.gov/modelE/ar5/). I will update this note book from now and then to keep track of and classfiy massive information online.

### General Information about Climatic Models

[CMIP5 Model Output Requirements: File Contents and Format, Data Structure and Metadata](https://cmip.llnl.gov/cmip5/docs/CMIP5_output_metadata_requirements28Apr10.pdf)

[ModelE CMIP5 Climate Simulations](https://data.giss.nasa.gov/modelE/ar5/) contains basic coonfigurations for CMIP5 model simulations.

[CMIP5 from WCRP](https://esgf-node.llnl.gov/projects/cmip5/) can give you access to downloading simulation data.
