# Overview of current shared infrastructure ## Introduction The climate modelling community relies on many services at NCI, some of which are in part provided by members of the community. Where this infrastructure is used by community members from multiple organisations there is a desire to collaborate to reduce wasteful duplication, or improve productivity by sharing knowledge. We have begun regular infrastructure meetings to facilitate this collaboration. The first step is to list all the **current** infrastructure currently used by the community, who is responsible for it, who uses it, and who is interested in collaborating with maintaining and supporting it, either currently or in the future. ## Infrastructure inventory | ACCESS-Hive | | | --- | --- | | Responsible entity: | ACCESS-NRI | | Description: | Portal to all documentation relevant to the Australian Community Climate and Earth System Simulator, ACCESS, and the wider ACCESS community. | | URL: | [https://access-hive.org.au](https://access-hive.org.au) | | Users: | ACCESS community (includes Universities, Centres of Excellence, CSIRO and BoM) | | Collaborators: | | | ACCESS-HIve Forum | | | --- | --- | | Responsible entity: | ACCESS-NRI | | Description: | Place for the ACCESS Community to come together, share information, have fruitful discussions, organise and plan shared activities. | | URL: | [https://forum.access-hive.org.au](https://forum.access-hive.org.au) | | Users: | ACCESS community (includes Universities, Centres of Excellence, CSIRO and BoM) | | Collaborators: | | | CWS Help | | | --- | --- | | Responsible entity: | BoM, CSIRO, CLEX-CMS, NCI | | Description: | Dedicated queue on the NCI helpdesk for questions/issues related to climate and weather data analysis and models at NCI | | URL: | cws\_help@nci.org.au | | Users: | BoM, CSIRO, CLEX | | Collaborators: | | | COSIMA Cookbook | | | --- | --- | | Responsible entity: | COSIMA (Consortium for Ocean-Sea Ice Modelling in Australia) | | Description: | Framework for analysing output from ocean-sea ice models.
