NCI projects
The base unit for the accounting of computational and storage resources is the project, except for your home directory which has limited personal storage. There are 2 types of projects at NCI:
- data projects: for published and shared datasets
- computational projects: for running programs
To have a valid login at NCI, you need to be a member of at least one computational project.
This means when working on NCI machine, you will mainly work with shared resources. It is essential you learn how to use these resources fairly and efficiently.
CLEx projects
CLEx is managing several computational and data projects at NCI via the CMS team. We will not list the data projects since you do not have write access to any of those. To find datasets published at NCI, please see the information on this page
The computational projects are split by Research Program (RP):
Project | RP | Lead CI |
---|---|---|
v45 | Extra-tropical variability | Andy Hogg |
w35 | Drought | Claire Carouge |
w40 | Extreme Rainfall | Martin Jucker |
w42 | Extreme Rainfall | Abhnil Prasad |
w48 | Tropical Variability | Dietmar Dommenget |
w97 | Heatwaves | Jason Evans |
Some of the following information applies to all projects at NCI but keep in mind, this page focuses on the CLEx projects, as such some information might only apply to CLEx projects. See the Lead CIs of your other projects for information on those.
