The purpose of the visualization effort of the GENESIS Earth System Modeling Project is to aid in the analysis of global climate research and communicate its findings through the creation of broadcast quality video products. These video products are in turn suitable for use by students and educators at many levels.

• Shown are results of GENESIS Earth System Model simulations.
• GENESIS ESM runs on Cray supercomputers and Silicon Graphics workstations.
• Typical GENESIS run produces gigabytes of data as model output.
• Visualization allows the study of dynamics by observing model output in motion.
