ICoM is taking an integrated approach that brings together multiple modeling tools to represent both extreme events and long-term changes in human and natural systems. We focus on processes that represent significant uncertainties in the evolution of coastal systems and are aligned with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) mission.

A schematic diagram illustrating the approaches, science foci, and tools for THREAD (Tying in High Resolution E3SM with ARM Data), an Atmospheric System Research (ASR) Science Focus Area (SFA) project bridging the Department of Energy’s (DOE) Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) and Energy Exascale Earth System Model (E3SM) programs. THREAD will use ARM observations for diagnosis and improvement of E3SM’s kilometer-scale model configuration known as the Simplified Cloud-Resolving E3SM Atmospheric Model (SCREAM).
