Summary

Abstract: The Community Climate System Model (CCSM) is a fully-coupled, global climate
model that provides state-of-the-art computer simulations of the Earth's past,
present, and future climate states. CCSM3.0 consists of model output from the
Community Atmosphere Model (CAM), the Community Sea Ice Model (CSIM), and the
Community Land Model (CLM).
