Abstract

We describe the I-WRF project for the NSF Cyberinfrastructure for Sustained Scientific Innovation program, which provides a framework for application containers that allow the Weather Research and Forecasting Model (WRF) software and accompanying MET and METplus validation software to be run on a wide range of resources with minimal installation requirements. I-WRF will support three major science use cases that quantify impacts of environmental or human developments together with climate change on critical outcomes. I-WRF is also intended to facilitate outreach by making it easier to provide training and demonstrations to build understanding and interest for new potential atmospheric scientists.
