Configuration¶

This part explains how the models and experiments are configured. If you just want to run a default experiment, you can freely skip to the next part.

The configuration of MODIPSL-based models and experiments is distributed between many directories and files. The sheer amount of these elements requires from us a systematic documentation of all the existing intricacies.

MODIPSL configuration¶

At the top-lever are *.card used by the internal part of MODIPSL, the libIGCM project. These files describe

Component configuration¶
