CISM is a land ice model designed to be used as part of an earth-system model or as a stand-alone model. Full documentation can be found at: https://github.com/ESCOMP/cism-documentation-source And a pdf of the documentation can be found at: https://cism.github.io/data/cism_documentation_v2_1.pdf
CISM is issued under the Lesser GNU General Public Licence (see LICENSE in the main directory).
Note that this licence DOES NOT APPLY to the SLAP linear algebra library, used by the serial code, which is included here in its own directory (./libglimmer-solve/SLAP), and is in the public domain.
There are two mailing lists, one for general users and one for developers:
The general user mailing list can be signed up for by sending an email to: cism-users+subscribe@googlegroups.com
The developers mailing list can be signed up for by sending an email to: cism-devel+subscribe@googlegroups.com
Note that because these lists are managed by GoogleGroups, they will always attempt to associate you with a Google email address. To insure that the email you would like to use is associated with the list, please make sure you entirely log out of any Google services before attempting to sign up for the mailing list. The sign-up process will require you to authenticate the email address you wish to use by taking you to a website where you will be prompted to enter that information.
