The CCA Model
The Conformal Cubic Atmospheric Model (CCAM), is the second-generation regional climate model developed
specifically for Australasian region and developed by CSIRO Division of Atmospheric Research in Australia. The CCAM has also been evaluated in several international model inter-comparison exercises to be among the best climate model for Asian region (McGregor et al, 1998).
