The goal of this project was to port three commonly used Earth system models (EC-Earth, CESM1 and NorESM) to the triolith cluster at NSC. All the required configuration scripts were generated and typical model configurations were tested for functionality and load balancing. Triolith now accepted as a 'supported machine' by the EC-Earth 3 developers, awaiting confirmation of status as a supported machine (tier 2) for the CESM1.1 model.

A low resolution (T159L62) version of EC-Earth 3 was also set up and tested.
