# CLimate Analysis using Digital Estimations (CLAuDE) The tool which we'll use to accomplish this is CLimate Analysis using Digital Estimations (CLAuDE), an intuitive, simplistic model of atmospheric dynamics. **The purpose of CLAuDE is to be:** - versatile, such that users customise which modules of code will be used in a given simulation - a teaching tool, both for programming and climate physics - accessible, designed to run even on basic machines with appropriate parameters **Objectives** - Modular, so users can customise the complexity of the model and write their own modules. - To answer questions through YouTube videos about hypothetical planets, that would use the output of CLAuDE Beyond these goals, we hope that it can become a useful resource for teachers and students discussing climate and atmospheric dynamics. ### Community **Discord** If you wish to discuss CLAuDE and other things related to climate and atmospheric dynamics, feel free to join the [Dr. Simon Clark Discord Server](https://discord.gg/SZu6e2F). **YouTube** Simon creates videos about climate and atmospheric dynamics, as well as videos hypothesising if fictional planets could be a reality, based of what we currently know. If you think you'd enjoy this videos, you can watch him [here](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRRr_xrOm66qaigIbwFLvbQ). **Twitch** CLAuDE is currently being developed on Wednesday [Twitch](https://twitch.tv/drsimonclark) streams every week! ### Licensing TODO: Add LICENSE
