In moving toward the radically toward radically open modeling, the Climate Collaboratorium Community will proceed along a series proceed through a series of stages. These stages will involve refinement along two dimensions.

  • The first is increasing ability to compare multiple simulation runs, first across a single model and then across multiple models.
  • The second is increasing ability to refine the workings of simulation software through the use of open source development techniques

  • .

As the Community moves along moves through these stages, the tasks involved become increasingly difficult.

The starting point is current practice, here called Expertexpert-Prepared Modelsprepared models, in which a small cadre group of expert modelers experts builds a simulation model and releases the results of its model runs in presentations or publications.

The five stages that go beyond Expert Prepared Models expert prepared models and move toward the vision of radically open modeling are:
