CAM: The Community Atmosphere Model

CAM code is stored in this repository on branches other than main. The details are explained below.

Please see the wiki for complete documentation on CAM, getting started with git and how to contribute to CAM's development.

This repository has four officially-supported branches:

  • main - contains this readme and the Code of Conduct information
  • cam_cesm2_2_rel - contains the current CESM2.2 CAM code
  • cam_cesm2_1_rel - contains the current CESM2.1 CAM code
  • cam_development - contains the current CAM development code (see the important note below before using this branch)

There are other branches in this repo that have a zz_ prefix which are used for special projects. Please note that use of these branches is not-supported and may very likely produce un-scientific results in certain configurations.
