Template:Drop box What can CSDMS do for me
Are you a researcher or student interested in using surface process models for scientific problems? To explore sediment transport and morphodynamics problems either in the terrestrial, the coastal or the marine domain? You will find numerical models of other scientists documented, and made available as open-source codes in the MODEL REPOSITORY.
You may take advantage of CSDMS INTEGRATION STAFF to ask modeling questions.
If your model takes a long time to run on your own computer, you may want to sign up to securely access our High Performance Computing Cluster and run it remotely. SIGN UP FOR AN ACCOUNT.
Are you interested to run or couple models? The CSDMS Modeling Tool allows you to quickly build model runs and visualize the results, without needing to be an expert in code development. You can download the CMT and run it on the HPCC, but you will need to sign up for a secure account. DOWNLOAD CMT.
Being a member of the CSDMS working groups allows you to connect with other members to learn more about knowledge gaps and opportunities for proposal writing. It may bring more competitive funding opportunities or better integrated proposals. FIND OUT MORE ABOUT THE WORKING GROUPS.
Are you a researcher or student interested in developing new numerical surface process models for scientific problems? You will have all the benefits of any model user, but in addition there are services specifically for model developers….
You can make your numerical models easily available to other scientists and students by contributing your source code to the CSDMS model repository. It is an efficient way to gain academic and public recognition for code development. Your contribution may be a way to increase your user base; more users generally will help to make the code more robust. There are about ????NO-OF_CODES…there already. CONTRIBUTE YOUR CODE (http://csdms.colorado.edu/wiki/Contribute_model)
CSDMS maintains your code in Subversion, this is a software management tool to make version control with different developers more manageable. Learn more about Subversion here. (http://csdms.colorado.edu/wiki/SVN)
You may take advantage of CSDMS integration staff to ask model development questions. (http://csdms.colorado.edu/wiki/Staff)
Or use the CSDMS HANDBOOK to learn more about code contribution. http://csdms.colorado.edu/wiki/Help:Tools_CSDMS_Handbook
Are you interested to run or couple models? The CSDMS Modeling tool allows you to quickly build model runs and visualize the results in the powerful visualisation package VisIT. Do you want to make your model a component that can be easily coupled to other models, CSDMS provides tutorials and examples on HOW TO DEVELOP YOUR MODEL INTO A COMPONENT (we don’t have this pages ready yet).
If your model takes a long time to run on your own computer, you may want to sign up to access our High Performance Computing Cluster SIGN UP FOR AN ACCOUNT, (https://csdms.colorado.edu/wiki/HPCC_account_request). Want to bring your code up to the next level. Learn more about how to run your code in parallel processing mode.
Being a member of the CSDMS working groups allow you to connect with other members to learn more about knowledge gaps and opportunities for proposal writing. Competitive funding opportunities - better integrated proposals. Connect with other model developers for proposal opportunities. FIND OUT MORE ABOUT THE WORKING GROUPS: http://csdms.colorado.edu/wiki/CSDMS_groups.
Are you an earth science researcher or student who collects and analyses field data or experimental data and want to compare it with numerical model output?
You may want to explore the CSDMS Model Repository to learn which models are applicable to your project. You will find numerical models of other scientists documented, and made available as open-source codes in the MODEL REPOSITORY.
Connect with model developers through the working groups, and with the CSDMS Integration Facility Staff to properly configure your model runs. FIND OUT MORE ABOUT THE WORKING GROUPS.

You may be interested in contribute datasets that are appropriate to be test-data for numerical models? CSDMS maintains a data repository and the different working groups have a task of vetting CSDMS models with data, which may include model inter-comparisons. Browse the data repository or contribute data.
Are you an educator interested in using numerical models in class? Are you looking for material to use teaching about earth surface processes, hydrology and sediment transport? Do you want your students to be more familiar with handling quantitative data and mathematical analysis?
Learn about our survey of quantitative earth surface process courses that are being taught, and contribute your own ideas about teaching modeling. More about the SURVEY is posted here.
You can use our growing EDUCATIONAL REPOSITORY. It features lectures, classroom labs, modeling textbooks, and documented model simulations. All are focused on learning about earth surface processes. Access the EKT repository.
There is a special section with earth surface process movies, you may have your own movie that you want to share? CONTRIBUTE IT!
Your can contribute your teaching resources to our repository and gain recognition for developing educational resources. Or work with IF staff to develop new educational products targeted for your needs. Contact the CSDMS EKT specialist irina.overeem@colorado.edu
You may want to use the CSDMS Modeling Tool in your classroom to easily couple models and run jobs on the CSDMS supercomputer. There are a number of labs that have been developed already using the CMT Tool. Notes for the labs that are downloadable.
Being a member of the CSDMS EKT working group allows you to connect with other members to learn more about knowledge gaps and opportunities for proposal writing. Competitive funding opportunities - better integrated proposals. Connect with other model developers for proposal opportunities. FIND OUT MORE ABOUT THE WORKING GROUPS.
Are you a planner or a policy-maker interested in modeling to support your efforts? CSDMS is a community of experts that promotes the understanding of earth-surface processes through numerical simulation experiments. The experiments employ an open-source library of community-generated, continuously evolving software. CSDMS is partnered with related scientific programs in order to provide a strong linkage between predictions and observations.
