The GEOS-5 AGCM consists of a hierarchy of ESMF gridded components

constructed and connected using MAPL. The model's architecture is illustrated

in the tree diagram below. Most of the calculations are done by components

at the leafs of this tree. The composite components above the leafs serve as

connectors, performing specialized connections between the children and

producing combined outputs.

Components in green are those that run on the exchange grid. All other

components currently run on the atmospheric grid used for the dynamics,

except [[The Surface Gridded Component|SURFACE]], which acts as an interface between the two grids.
