介绍一项法国教师和2位博士生合作开发、服务于法国高中的气候模拟软件

hillside

        现在介绍一项法国教师和2位博士生合作开发、服务于法国高中的气候模拟软件SimClimat，供有兴致者观览。据页面称，软件界面提供双语选择，但使用手册似乎仅有法语。

    说明：本人发布了不少E文帖子，只是引进国外的气候类信息与软件介绍，目的是增加大家的见闻，并不注重立竿见影地使用。曾有网友抱怨看E文太累，希望笔者对所发E文帖子中的内容进行详细的中文介绍。由于本人时间、精力等，这一点可能难以做到。如果版主与多位网友认为一些帖子近乎阳春白雪、无人问津，不适合本论坛，我并不反对根据网友意见删除部分帖子。本人曾经介绍过CDO，尽管原帖直接点击量不大，后来经一些有心网友消化后单独发帖形成热烈讨论的场面。例如：
       介绍“气候数据操作员”软件（C语言）——Climate Data Operators(CDO)

       一款极其强大的气象软件——Climate Data Operators (CDO)

         顺便指出，上述的“一款极其强大的气象软件”尽管时间上落后于本人的“介绍‘气候数据操作员’软件（C语言）”，但因作者没有明确说明引用关系，也可以理解作独立推介（因为我每发一帖，几乎都要搜索一下有无类似帖子已经出现）。不管如何，发扬光大总是有意义的。

                                          SimClimat:An educational software to simulate the climate

     This educational software is originally deviced for use in high schools as part of the french curriculum in Life and Earth Sciences. Itrealises climate simulations given user-chosen parameters. Through a friendly interface, the user chooses the length of the simulation (from 100 years to a few billions years) and the initial conditions, and tests the influence of various parameters involved in climate: astronomic forcing, atmospheric composition, carbone cycle, climatic feedbacks (ice albedo, vegetation, ocean, water vapor). Simulation results (such as temperature, sea level and ice cover), calculated on the flys by a physical climate model, appear on the interface, through curves and images.

   Here is a snapshot of the graphical interface:

Possible uses:

This educational software can be used to introduce processes controlling climate. It can be used to discuss past climate variations and the different natural factors that influence climate (astronomic forcing, natural perturbations in the carbon cycle). The effect of climatic feedbacks can be shown by plugging or unplugging feedbacks. This software can also be used to discuss global warming, and test different carbon dioxyde emmissions scenarii. For example, it can be used:

• in high schools, to study climate processes and feedbacks. This software has already been tested in various high school classes in France. Here is a report (in french) on tests performed in high schools. This can give ideas about how to educationaly use this software.
• in science festivals. This software has been tested in science festivals such as the Fête de la Science in Paris. An older version of the model was more oriented on climate change and was also tested in science festivals with children and adults (see stand sur le réchauffement climatique). In this former version, the different human sources of carbon dioxyde are more detailed (you can for example test the influence of the distance you drive each year), but climatic processes and feedbacks are less detailed.
• at a University level. For example, a 3-hour activity based on this software was given at a summer school in Paris on Climate and Innovation. The goal of this activity was to better understand factors and processes controlling climate variations at different time scales, from million years to thousands of years and to the present climate change. This will allow us to place the present-day climate change in the context of past variations and to identify its specificities. The following items were addressed: Radiative budget of the Earth, Climate equilibrium states and reversibility, Climate variations at geological time scales (million years, Climate variations at orbital time scales, Carbon cycle and its variations, Human-induced climate change, Climate feedbacks. Students worked on this activity and this supporting material was progressively presented as a complement.
• In a Math festival. The goal was to talk about climate modelling to children from 8 to 13 years all, during about 20 minutes for each group. This was in the context of the Mathematical games and culture exhibition from 28 May to 2 June 2013 in Paris, whose topic was "Math for the Earth". Here is a summary of my presentations and a visual support as a complement.
  

If you use this software with your students or for any educational purpose, we would be very happy to hear about your feedbacks! Please send us news at camille.risi@normalesup.org

Download this software:

You can freely download a version for windows or linux.
The software is available in English or French. If the translation in an additional language interests you, please contactcamille.risi@normalesup.org

Documentations about this software:

• User's guide (in french)
• Physical model documentation: This software uses a simple climate model, based on a global radiative equilibrium. We try to combine model simplicity (results have to quicly appear), realism of the simulations (from a scientific point of view) and rigour of the physical equations. A physical model documentation (in french) explains the physical equations that are used in the model and how they are constrained.
  

Météo-France version of the software:

The graphical interface of this software has been improved by a team at Météo-France. You can download this version from Météo-France's site.

Any questions?

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any question, comment or suggestion about this software:

• camille.risi@normalesup.org (model physics, educational use)
• nicolas.gama@normalesup.org (graphical interface, software installation)
  

You are welcome to use this software in your classes or science festivals Please tell us about your experience with it!

Who develop this software

Initially, this software was developped by a team of two young PhD student and teachers in Paris:

• Camille Risi was a PhD student at the Laboratoire de Météorologie Dynamique and teaches Earth Sciences and Physics at Paris 6 University.
• Nicolas Gama was PhD student at the Laboratoire d'Informatique at the Ecole Normale Supérieure and teaches Computer Sciences in Paris 7 University.
  

Since Septembre 2012, Marion Saint-Lu is working on improving the physics and the educational use of the software, in the context of theClimate-KIC. Thanks to Franck Guyon for his help to install the software on the laboratory computers.

还是很有收获的 不管是不是跟自己的方向有关系，多看看，也算是能了解更多的行业内的发展动态
RFORTRAN也是通过这里学到的

楼主有心，将你所有介绍的工作整合一下，可以出书···

过奖了，只是走马观花、浮光掠影而已。

其实这样的积累是非常好的！
