WAVETRISK Atmosphere and Ocean Adaptive Global Climate Model

A dynamically adaptive wavelet-based experimental climate model that provides global three-dimensional atmosphere or ocean models.
WAVETRISK solves the multilayer shallow water equations with Lagrangian vertical coordinates in Boussinesq form using a mimetic method similar to that of DYNAMICO. Local horizontal grid resolution is adapted dynamically at each time step using a multilevel wavelet-based method, providing very high local grid refinement that tracks dynamically important structures. The code is parallelized using mpi and scales well to at least O(103) cores.

See the Wiki for a full description of the WAVETRISK global circulation model, including compilation/running and available test cases.
