Downloads and Updates
Here is where you can download a copy of the updated Energy Balance Model. The version here is different from that on the CD. Freezes have been fixed and an option to save results to a spreadsheet-compatible format has been added.
Updated EBM
You can download the EBM for OSX, Windows and Linux systems. The files below are ZIP files that contain everyting you need to get the model running. If you have questions or comments, please post them to the forums. Improvements and bug fixes are possible, but only if we know about them.
EBM for OS X This version is a universal binary that works on both PPC and Intel Macs.
EBM for Windows Developed for XP, but should work OK in Vista.
EBM for Linux. This is an experimental Linux version. Let us know if it works or not.
Get the EBM workbook
There is a simple workbook that goes with the EBM. It is suitable for a short 3-4 hour practical class with the EBM and discusses the basic characteristics of the model and its results. The model has potential to go further, by allowing students to save their results to a spreadsheet compatible file so they could (in principle) look at climate sensitivity measures and how verying A, B and C could change those.
