At the end of May we found the 100th PISM-using paper:
PISM v1.1 was tagged on 7 December 2018. It includes a large number of model improvements and issue resolutions (see the change log), but it is an incremental release. Please use this version, or the (master branch), unless you have a good reason to use an older one!
We think PISM has pretty-good open-source-software cred. But don’t take our word for it. Here is the automatically-generated nutshell (here, on 4 November 2017) at openhub.net:
LARMIP is the Linear Antarctic Response to basal melting Model Intercomparison Project. PISM is one of several participating models. The goal is to use the newest models to compute a linear-response sea level contribution to inform the IPCC-AR6. Find all necessary materials at http://www.pik-potsdam.de/larmip.
