CLAM Bake!

Climate Learning and Modeling Development Environment

CLAM Bake is a complete Python programming environment that allows you to code and run simple climate computer programs.

Getting Started

Use the buttons to toggle between this page, the code editor, the console output, the interaction window and the graphics canvas.

Introduction to CLAM Bake

This development environment provides access to:

Editor — A place to enter Python programs.
Console — A place to view the output of programs.
Canvas — A place where graphics can be drawn.
Library — A place where multiple programs can be save or loaded.

Credits and Thanks

The core of CLAM Bake is Skulpt, the Python to Javascript translator developed by Scott Graham.

The editor, CodeMirror, was developed by Marijn Haverbeke.

Python itself is a robust high-level programming language created by its Benevolent Dictator for Life, Guido van Rossum.

Belegen die Spaltöffnungen von Pflanzen höhere und stärker schwankende CO2-Konzentrationen?

Das Argument der Skeptiker...

Die Spaltöffnungen von Pflanzen belegen höhere und stärker schwankende CO₂-Konzentrationen.

"Wenn CO₂-Daten, die aus der Untersuchung von Spaltöffnungen gewonnen werden (rot), mit CO₂-Daten aus Eisbohrkernen (blau) verglichen werden, zeigen die Spaltöffnungen im Allgemeinen eine größere Schwankungsbreite des atmoshärischen CO₂-Gehaltes und oft auch weitaus höhere Gehalte an als die Eisbohrkerne.
