This Repository contains the scripts and input files to run OSCAR (v3.0), a compact Earth System Model, as described in Treharne et al. . This repository includes the added modules to OSCAR that simulate abrupt permafrost thaw and emissions from below-ground combustion and fire-induced permafrost degradation. The repository includes the core files to run OSCAR v3.0, more details on that can be found under https://github.com/tgasser/OSCAR/tree/master
core_fct: This folder contains the core functions of OSCAR
input_data: The input_data folder contains the drivers for historic and scenario forcings for emissions drive (E) and concentration driven (C). The parameters folder contains the parameter files for each specific run set-up, including a specific land surface model (e.g., JSBACH) used to drive the gradual thaw emulator and a combination of other permafrost modules that are switched on.
The new moduels for abrupt thaw, high latitude combustion, and post-fire permafrost thaw are found in fct_process.py under 1.4. Permafrost
