Data needs

The CSDMS Data Repository describes important data fields useful in CSDMS models and provides links to data centers for download. CSDMS distinguishes between at least 3 data types relevant for modeling:

  1. boundary or initialization data,
  2. model algorithm test or benchmark data, and
  3. integrated datasets for model validation of coupled systems.

Model test files and validation files are explicitly solicited within the model submission process.
