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. | |||
