Cooperative Institute for Modeling the Earth System (CIMES) is a collaborative effort between Princeton University and NOAA's Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL). CIMES focuses on advancing the science of Earth system modeling, particularly in climate prediction, weather forecasting, and understanding the interactions between the atmosphere, oceans, land, and biosphere.
Mission
CIMES's mission is to enhance the capabilities of Earth System Models (ESMs) for better climate prediction, environmental analysis, and policy support. Through this, CIMES aims to improve our understanding of how various components of the Earth system interact, particularly in response to human activities and natural variability.
Parent organization
CIMES is hosted by Princeton University in collaboration with the NOAA's Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL).
Legislation
CIMES was established through a cooperative agreement rather than through specific legislation.
