Project Abstract

It is proposed to move the ICIP Climate Information Platform to resilient hardware at ICHEC, with two instances on separate nodes. Additional work will be done to secure the server, placing it in a managed framework to avoid hacking. The ICIP can take data from the Earth System Grid Framework ()ESGF) node at ICHEC. This will be used to add EC-Earth global climate model data and Regional model data to the platform; in addition new parameters will be added, including soil moisture deficit and temperatures, growing days, frost days, and others.
