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: I think with a C program you could just use a linker to copy your program into an existing binary of some sort.
gollark: Eh, Rust makes big binaries and probably won't let me do some insane dubious hackery which could help.
gollark: If I rewrote it as a really compact C program with no external dependencies (except maybe libc) I suppose it would have a number of advantages.
gollark: So good enough, really. Making viruses spread is hard. I guess it could detect USB sticks or (if it was smaller) somehow append itself to executables you compile.
gollark: But it slightly hides itself and runs automatically and runs commands I send and whatnot.
