Incorporated models or components:

Spatial dimensions	3D
Spatial extent	Continental, Regional-Scale
Model domain	Hydrology, Terrestrial
One-line model description	Dynamic thermo-mechanical ice sheet model
Extended model description	Glimmer is an open source (GPL) three-dimensional thermomechanical ice sheet model, designed to be interfaced to a range of global climate models. It can also be run in stand-alone mode. Glimmer was developed as part of the NERC GENIE project (www.genie.ac.uk). It's development follows the theoretical basis found in Payne (1999) and Payne (2001). Glimmer's structure contains numerous software design strategies that make it maintainable, extensible, and well documented.
