Acquisition of a Cluster Computing Facility for Modeling and Observations at SIO

0116643Cayan授予加州大学圣地亚哥分校斯克里普斯海洋研究所的这一重大研究仪器奖将为购买集群计算机系统提供支持，供新的斯克里普斯观测、建模和预测中心(COMPAS)使用。该系统的研究使用将侧重于区域至全球尺度的海洋/大气模拟、海岸和波浪过程的精细模拟、面向过程的海洋模拟和海洋状态估计以及研究生教育，其中将分配25%的计算时间。该系统将设在斯克里普斯海洋研究所；圣地亚哥超级计算机中心将提供技术支持和档案存储。加州大学圣迭戈分校将从非联邦资金中贡献该项目成本的30%。***

0116643CayanThis Major Research Instrumentation award to University of California San Diego's Scripps Institution of Oceanography will provide support for acquisition of a cluster computer system for use by the new Center for Observations, Modeling, and Prediction at Scripps (COMPAS). Research use of the system will emphasize regional to global scale ocean/atmosphere modeling, fine-scale modeling of coastal and wave processes, process-oriented ocean modeling and ocean state estimation, and graduate education, to which 25% of the computational time will be allocated. The system will be housed at Scripps Institution of Oceanography; technical support and archival storage will be provided by the San Diego Supercomputer Center. UCSD will contribute 30% of the cost of this project from non-federal funds. ***
