The '''ESMF''' (''Earth System Modeling Framework'') is a software for building and coupling multi-component [[climate]], numerical [[weather prediction]], data assimilation, and other [[Earth science]] [[software application]]s. These applications are computationally demanding and rely on [[high-perfomance computerscomputing]]. The ESMF project is distinguished by its strong emphasis on community ownership and distributed development, and by a diverse customer base that includes modeling groups from universities, major national research centers, the [[National Weather Service]], the [[Department of Defense]], and [[NASA]]. The ESMF development team is centered at [[NCAR]].
