Hi, I just looked to confirm my climateprediction.net preferences and I cannot see a box to check that will give me 160 year models.

The options seem to be:
HADSM3 - 45 years
HADCM3 - 80 Years
HADAM3 - 1 Year

Have I missed an announcement...? Are there any \'preferred\' models that need to get done? At the moment my system seems quite stable and so I\'m happy to crunch big models.

Also is there any feedback on how the model results are being used by the research community?

Thanks

The HADCM3 models are 80 and 160 years at random, and as available.

Feedback is scattered. Most will be hush-hush until the research papers are published in journals, but there is a little on the \'other\' board here, in the News and Announcements section.
Also in the same place on these boards, here.

And there was an announcement about some results in the front page news of this project site, under PNAS paper on cpdn results

Ticking the HADCM3 will deliver 80 or 160-year models as they appear in the queue. I take the offered model as expressing the project\'s priority, though that\'s just speculation on my part ...

My rule is now as follows:

- machines available long-term, 24/7, little or interested human use (e.g. server) = HADCM3

- machines which might \'disappear\' short-term or not 24/7 = HADSM3

- machine with large memory and interested user = HADAM3.

[Edit: Les beat me to the OK button.]

Thanks Guys. I have just updated my Preferences to go with HADCM3.
