Testing Climate Model Software

Table of Contents

1. Overview

A climate model is a straightforward mathematical model, but its software is heavy on the numerical analysis. How can we test the code to make sure it's working as expected?

This is a hard question that draws upon many fields.

Unit testing is inadequate, we would need integrated testing.
