Permafrost Benchmark System

The Permafrost Benchmark System (PBS)
is an open source web application
for conducting benchmarking studies of permafrost models.
The PBS wraps the command-line
ILAMB
benchmarking system with a customized version of the
CSDMS Web Modeling Tool
(WMT), and adds tools for uploading
CMIP5-compatible model outputs and benchmark datasets.
The PBS allows users to access and run ILAMB remotely,
without having to install software or data locally;
a web browser on a desktop, laptop, or tablet computer
is all that's needed.

The PBS home page is https://permamodel.github.io/pbs.
It contains links for registration and documentation.
