Grid Program
The TPAC Grid program is developing infrastructure on the APAC National Grid that enables data and computing resources to be made transparently available to the Earth Systems Science (ESS) research community. Earth systems science, with its heritage of global collaboration and long tradition of sharing data collected on ground, air and sea events, is well suited to the adoption of grid systems.
The program has delivered knowledge discovery tools (data catalogues and repositories), and web-based portals for ESS modelling ...more
Computational Tools & Techniques Program
The TPAC Computational Tools and Techniques program is building on TPAC and partner activities in climate science to create state-of-the-art coupled earth system models comprising atmosphere, ocean and ocean biogeochemistry, sea-ice, and ice sheet components. The models are used by TPAC partners, the Australian research community, the Australian Research Council (ARC) Network for Earth Systems Science (ARCNESS), and users of the APAC National Facility ...more
Educational, Outreach & Training Program
The TPAC Educational, Outreach and Training program aims to significantly increase the skills of current and potential users of advanced computing and grid facilities. TPAC has established courses in the application of high performance computer modelling, and visualisation of computer model output ...more
