LOSCAR Model

(Long-term Ocean-atmosphere-Sediment CArbon cycle Reservoir Model)

A version of my Loscar model is available in C (programming skills are however NOT required in order to run the model). After installation, the program can be run by editing parameter values in a control file. For more information and instructions, see:
