This is the project to model the climates of hypothetical planets, which could be Earth with slightly different parameters or entirely alien worlds.
The tool which we'll use to accomplish this is CLimate Analysis using Digital Estimations (CLAuDE), an intuitive, simplistic model of atmospheric dynamics.
The purpose of CLAuDE is to be:
Objectives
Beyond these goals, we hope that it can become a useful resource for teachers and students discussing climate and atmospheric dynamics.
See the documentation on building in BUILDING.md.
Discord
If you wish to discuss CLAuDE and other things related to climate and atmospheric dynamics, feel free to join the Dr. Simon Clark Discord Server.
YouTube
Simon creates videos about climate and atmospheric dynamics, as well as videos hypothesising if fictional planets could be a reality, based of what we currently know.
If you think you'd enjoy this videos, you can watch him here.
Twitch
CLAuDE is currently being developed on Wednesday Twitch streams every week!
