A hub for sharing knowledge and resources to study the Earth's climate and the regional impact of global changes in the Nordic countries.
The NordicESMHub github organization is a focal point for sharing knowledge, codes (climate models, Galaxy climate data analysis and visualization tools), data and training material.
The focal point or centre of the hub is the NordicESMHub website.
To connect students, researchers and citizen living in Nordic countries (Denmark, Finland, Sweden, Iceland, Estonia, Norway) so they can collaborate and share knowledge, tools and codes (climate models, tools for analyzing climate data and visualization tools) used for studying climate changes at high latitudes. The reason is that Nordic countries are large but with few inhabitants. So your closest colleague (in distance and time to travel) can very often be located in a neighbouring country.
- People add/get informed on nordicESMHub website about Climate E-Science (climate modelling, data analysis and visualization, programming) training opportunities that are close to where they live and work,
- People add/update information on climate models, climate data analysis and visualisations that they use to study climate change and its regional impact at high latitudes,
- Our community fosters a culture of sharing best practices for Climate modeling over the Nordic regions.
- Create NordicESMHub Github organization to gather information about tools, climate models used in the Nordic countries. Add links to international initiatives that are relevant for our community too.
- Create NordicESMHub website with guidelines on how to contribute so that it can be updated by anyone having an interest on Climate change and its regional impact on the Nordic countries
- Create new repositories for sharing codes (climate models, visualization, diagnostic tools, etc.)
- Get new resources with help from colleagues and community
- Write up guides on how to contribute
- Request feedback and invite contributions
