1 PISM, a Parallel Ice Sheet Model
2 ================================
3 |cipism|_
4
5 The Parallel Ice Sheet Model is an open source, parallel, high-resolution ice sheet model:
6
7 - hierarchy of available stress balances
8 - marine ice sheet physics, dynamic calving fronts
9 - polythermal, enthalpy-based conservation of energy scheme
10 - extensible coupling to atmospheric and ocean models
11 - verification and validation tools
12 - `documentation <pism-docs_>`_ for users and developers
13 - uses MPI_ and PETSc_ for parallel simulations
14 - reads and writes `CF-compliant <cf_>`_ NetCDF_ files
15
16 PISM is jointly developed at the `University of Alaska, Fairbanks (UAF) <uaf_>`_ and the
17 `Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK) <pik_>`_. UAF developers are based in
18 the `Glaciers Group <glaciers_>`_ at the `Geophysical Institute <gi_>`_.
