Essentially, the simulations needed to track the massive ice sheet’s progress require extremely large resolutions, large outputs and high computational demands – all of which requires massive computational power.

ugh…totally rainy right now. Boy do I miss Austin and New Orleans SCs…but guess what?? next it’s Salt Lake City and then it’s Denver!?! So now we will have ice and snow to deal with until we get back to New Orleans again for 2014.
I hope we don’t lose our amazing HPC researchers as they try to navigate their cars in the snow…I don’t forsee good times.
It’s back down to a strong mist. Not so bad, but it’s quite chilly out. The wind on the ferry is hurricane strength. It’s fun for people-watching.
Weather overall seems fine. Spent today mostly wandering Seattle and Winslow on Bainbridge Island. Only needed my umbrella twice. (Wouldn’t do anything against the heavy mist.)
Glad the weather wasn’t too bad. Still nervous about SLC
