My PC has been crunching away for seevral days, trickling stuff back and I'm sure this small contribution is worthwhile but how do I get to see the results, in some meaningful way? How do I know what my machine is calculating? ID: 9304 · Reply Quote

Yes. For more about the visualisation see <a href="http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/forum_thread.php?id=1859">this thread</a>. ID: 9321 · Reply Quote

Every six timesteps the model does some extra calculations including the radiation calculations. This is why these timesteps take longer to calculate.

The Earth re-radiating heat is at a longer wavelength so more into the infrared section of the spectum. I do not know whether the radiation step is doing incoming, outgoing, or both. I cannot see any reason why the model would be calculating radio-active radiation. HTH Visit BOINC WIKI for help And join BOINC Synergy for all the news in one place. ID: 9433 · Reply Quote
