The ICTP Regional Climate Model (RegCM)
  • RegCM is a 3-dimensional, sigma-coordinate, primitive equation regional climate model.
  • Version 3 of RegCM is the latest. It is developed and supported by scientists inside and outside of PWC/ICTP
  • RegCM3 is freely available at http://www.ictp.trieste.it/~pubregcm/RegCM3/

    IMPORTANT: If you have any question related to RegCM, you are welcome to subscribe to the Regional Climate Network, RegCNET and then send your question to regcnet@lists.ictp.it, and the previous emails are archived at The RegCNET Archives.
  • The gziped RegCM3 code regcm.tar.gz; (updated on November 27, 2009) 

    For Terrain&ICBC preprocessing, DATTYP could be ECMWF, EH5OM, ERA40, FVGCM, Further NEST (FNEST), NNRP1, NNRP2 and the small_window_NNRP2 (NRP2W); SSTTYP could be OISST, GISST and the weekly OISST (OI_WK).

    The subgrid BATS land surface scheme is added in the RegCM code, and the SUBEX and aerosol/chemstry packages are modified to improve th model performance, and dust package is added recently. And most recently, we have made ready the fully parallel code.
