Development Activities

Here is a description of the different versions of ORCHIDEE that are currently developed in parallel of the main version of ORCHIDEE. Ultimately, most of these versions will be merged to the main branch of development of ORCHIDEE model (trunk).Here below, are also presented the next evolutions of the trunk and the associated tags.

Highlights: Development for CMIP6
