- accessdev has reached production status.
The system is being managed and supported as per other systems at NCI to ensure availability to the fullest extent. Details on using accessdev can be found at https://trac.nci.org.au/trac/access/wiki/accessdev
"Accessdev is the NCI server that provides configuration and run control for the Australian Community Climate and Earth-System Simulator (the ACCESS model)"
- For information on moving from accesscollab to accessdev please read https://trac.nci.org.au/trac/access/wiki/Moving%20from%20Accesscollab
- For CSIRO users on cherax the existing UMUI environment will continue to be supported, but new model configurations and the new rose/cylc environment will only be available on accessdev. The accesscollab transition document also applies if you're interested in moving jobs from cherax.
- Rose version 2014-04 installed http://metomi.github.io/rose/doc/rose.html

- Iris is a new python based analysis and graphics package developed at the Met Office (see http://scitools.org.uk/iris/docs/latest/). It can read UM format files directly (as well as netCDF and GRIB). See https://trac.nci.org.au/trac/access/wiki/iris for more links. To try it on raijin,
module use ~access/modules module load iris
- GA6.0 is the Met Office's current atmospheric physics configuration. We have set up N96 L85 and N216 L85 AMIP configurations of this, based on UM vn8.5. See https://trac.nci.org.au/trac/access/wiki/GA6.0_testcases. Note that this uses the ENDGAME dynamics and the grid is shifted relative to the standard New Dynamics. Old ancillary files won't work.
