Got links to active climate models?
I hope it appropriate to submit this request: many readers seek a page with links to active climate models. I would trust your compilation of such a list, perhaps include evaluations, and comments etc. I can think of no other site for such a reference
Yours is a most important site – thank you and your students for all that you do. This is crucial work. The world hungers for models – especially short term and regional.
