行星模拟器是一种中等复杂程度的模型(MIC),可用于在可接受的实时范围内运行长达1万年或更长的时间尺度的气候和古气候模拟。开发的重点是速度,易于操作和便携性。它的模块化结构允许问题相关的配置。适用于火星和土星卫星泰坦的大气层。公共耦合接口允许添加海洋模型、冰模型、植被等。具有模型启动器(MoSt)和图形用户界面(GUI)的交互模式可用于从可用的层次结构中选择模型配置,设置其参数并在动态更改模型参数时检查大气场:这对于教学,调试和参数化调整特别有用。本文概述了该模型的特点。完整的模型包括源代码和文档可在(www.mi.uni-hamburg.de/plasim)上获得。
The Planet Simulator is a Model of Intermediate Complexity (MIC) which can be used to run climate and paleo-climate simulations for time scales up to 10 thousand years or more in an acceptable real time. The priorities in development are set to speed, easy handling and portability. Its modular structure allows a problem dependent configuration. Adaptions exist for the atmospheres of Mars and of Saturn's moon Titan. Common coupling interfaces enable the addition of ocean models, ice models, vegetation and more. An interactive mode with a Model Starter (MoSt) and a Graphical User Interface (GUI) can be used to select a model configuration from the available hierarchy, set its parameters and inspect atmospheric fields while changing model parameters on the fly: This is especially useful for teaching, debugging and tuning of parameterizations. This paper gives an overview of the model's features. The complete model including sources and documentation is available at (www.mi.uni-hamburg.de/plasim).
