The EdGCM Cooperative

Our goal is to improve the quality of teaching and learning of climate-change science through broader access to GCMs and to provide appropriate technology and materials to help teachers use these models effectively. With research-quality resources in place, linking classrooms to actual research projects is not only possible, it can be beneficial to both educators and scientists. To fulfill our goal we have created EdGCM, software that allows teachers and students to run a 4-D climate model on desktop computers.
