     Climate science - like all science - is based on the comparison of different models and hypothesis with observational data. We provide or support the frameworks to perform such comparisons as part of the **model evaluation**. The different model hypotheses, or more practically speaking *model experiments*, are created by executing different model configurations with different setups; for example by perturbing initial conditions or by adding new physical prescriptions to the models.
