Download RegCM Version 3.1 User's Guide

Abstract
As one of the main aims of the Abdus Salam International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP) is to foster
the growth of advanced studies and research in developing countries, the main purpose of this Regional Climate
Model (REGional Climate Model (RegCM)) Tutorial Class Notes is to give model users a guide to learn the
whole RegCM Model System.
The RegCM Tutorial Class is offered as a part of extended hands-on lab sessions during a series of Workshops
organized by the Physics of Weather and Climate (PWC) group at the ICTP.
RegCM was originally developed at the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) and has been
mostly applied to studies of regional climate and seasonal predictability around the world. The workshop
participants are welcome to use RegCM for regional climate simulation over different areas of interest. The
RegCM is available on the World Wide Web at http://www.ictp.trieste.it/∼pubregcm/RegCM3.
