CCCma

CCCma (Canadian Centre for Climate Modelling and Analysis) is part of the Climate Research Division of Environment Canada and is located at the University of Victoria, Victoria, British Columbia. Its purpose is to develop and apply climate models to improve understanding of climate change and make quantitative projections of future climate in Canada and globally. Its seasonal forecasting system provides climate forecasts over Canada on timescales of months to years.

Current models
  • CGCM3 The third generation coupled global climate model
  • CGCM4 The fourth generation coupled global climate model
  • CanESM2 The second generation Canadian Earth System Model
  • CanESM5 The Canadian Earth System Model version 5[1]
  • CanRCM The Canadian Regional Climate Model[2]
gollark: There are various problems with this:- massive increase of complexity in guns- you would need to recharge it constantly, and it would need batteries and such, and would generally be a hassle- GPS spoofing (possibly just jamming, depending on design) would stop guns working- people could probably just remove the geofencing bit- how are you planning to keep the "do not shoot here" lists updated on all of them?
gollark: I sent this mere *hours* ago.
gollark: Does the particular context of it change the meaning much? Or imply that you should only do that sometimes?
gollark: Language is hard, since it often deals with things which are hard to rigorously define in the first place, is subject to bizarre evolutionary pressures, and is often manipulated for argumentative gain.
gollark: ... why is it not embedding, bee you, Discord
