Scientists use GCS supercomputers for compute-intensive simulations in order to increase the fidelity of global climate simulations and provide quantitative information about the frequency of high-impact events and their risks. The research activity comprises a large series of global experiments (an ensemble), with each member of the ensemble dynamically simulating 27 years of both current and future climates.
