 The ACCESS Atmosphere Model (ACCESS-AM) is a global model with atmosphere and land surface components. It is often used in Atmospheric Model Intercomparison Project (AMIP) experiments where it is driven by historically observed sea surface temperature and sea ice data.

 The ACCESS Earth System Model (ACCESS-ESM) is a fully-coupled global climate model that also includes representations of land and ocean biogeochemisty. This means it can simulate both the physical climate and global biogeochemical cycles (the carbon cycle in particular).

-ACCESS models are computer codes comprising complex mathematical representations of major earth system components (atmosphere, land surface, ocean and sea ice) based on physical, biological and chemical principles or laws. Different ACCESS model components can be linked together via a coupler to form ACCESS model configurations, such as ACCESS-ESM, which are then used to perform simulations corresponding to realistic past or future conditions and idealised experiments.
