E3SM: Energy Exascale Earth System Model
The
Energy Exascale Earth System Model
is an Earth system modeling, simulation, and prediction project that investigates energy-relevant science using code optimized for DOE's advanced computers. We bring a unique combination of proficiencies in science, engineering, leadership computing, and information technologies—the expertise required to construct, maintain, and advance an Earth system modeling capability needed by the country and DOE.
