Welcome to the 2022 CTSM mini-tutorial
The materials and notebooks in this tutorial is published as a Jupyter book here.
This repository includes materials for the Community Terrestrial Systems Model (CTSM) Spring 2022 mini-tutorial.
These tutorials are designed as an introduction to running the Community Terrestrial Systems Model (CTSM). We we will run through three configurations that include running a:
- Supported NEON tower site,
- Global FATES simution, and
- Generic single point simulation.
We'll also learn how to:
- Visualize results,
- Analize model output, and
- Make simple code modifications.
This video will walk you through the initial steps of the tutorial, but the steps for quick start are also summarized below.
The full set of lectures from the tutorial can be found here.
-
In your web browser go to https://ctsmworkshop2022.cesm.cloud/
It will automatically open up a portal to connect to the cloud:
-
Enter your username and passsword provided with your tutorial registration
-
This should launch a JupyterLab window in your browser.
- Click on the
Terminal
icon to open a terminal window.
- Run the following command to clone this repository. (Just copy and paste the text below into the terminal window that opens in JupyterLab)
git clone https://github.com/NCAR/CTSM-Tutorial-2022
This gives you a local copy of the material you'll need for the tutorial
Can you see a new directory on your navigation sidebar called CTSM-Tutorial-2022
? (See the left sidebar of your JupyterLab window)
- Click on the
CTSM-Tutorial-2022
directory - Click on the
notebooks
directory - Click on the
Day0a_GitStarted.ipynb
notebook in the sidebar of your JupyterLab window.
Now you're ready to get started with the pre-tutorial homework. Let's git started by following along in the Day0a notebook
CTSM Repository which includes the CTSM Wiki page that has lots of resources, including much of the following:
- CTSM Technical Documentation
- CTSM User's Guide
- Quickstart Guide for Various Model Configuraions
- Running single-point cases other than NEON
