NCAS CMS Support for the SWAMMA project

Describes the data transfer and storage issues for a large data study.

SWAMMA (Sahara-West African Monsoon Multi-scale Analysis) is a four year project to investigate the influences of dust and convection in the timing of the West African monsoon.

CMS (computational Modelling Services) carried out the model testing on the ARCHER supercomputer at Edinburgh, ran the models and archived the data to the JASMIN facility at CEDA.
