<biogHist>
<abstract>The Australian Community Climate and Earth System Simulator (ACCESS) was initiated in 2005 as a major collaborative undertaking, bringing together the climate observations, research and modelling of the Bureau of Meteorology (the Bureau), CSIRO and Australian universities, in consultation with international partners. The result is a weather and climate forecasting system tailored to Australian needs. ACCESS builds on 50 years of Australian expertise in weather and climate forecasting. The system delivers weather forecasts over a few days and projections of climate to the end of this century and beyond.</abstract>
<p>From https://research.csiro.au/access/about/what/ [2026-05-22]:</p>
<p>'What is ACCESS?</p>
<p>ACCESS is a family of related models, configured for specific applications, to meet operational and research needs from weather forecasting to climate projections.</p>
<p>ACCESS, for climate applications, is built from core component models:</p>
<p> * UK Met Office Unified Model (UM) for the atmosphere<br />
 * Community Atmosphere Biosphere Land Exchange (CABLE) model for the land<br />
 * US NOAA/GFDL Modular Ocean Model (MOM) for the ocean<br />
 * LANL CICE model for sea-ice.</p>
<p>Additional modules support biogeochemistry and atmospheric chemistry.</p>
<p>Different ACCESS model configurations may use a sub-set of the core models for atmosphere-only or ocean-only simulations or may replace component models to meet the needs of a specific application. '</p>
