'''climateprediction.net''' ('''CPDN''') is a volunteer distributed computing project operating on the [[BOINC]] infrastructure, designed to improve understanding of climate change by running large ensembles of global climate model simulations. It is jointly coordinated by the University of Oxford and partner institutions including the UK Met Office and multiple UK research centres <ref name=cpdn_about>https://www.cpdn.org/about.php</ref>.

The project is one of the largest climate modelling experiments ever conducted in terms of computational scale and ensemble size, producing statistically significant distributions of future climate states rather than single deterministic projections <ref name=wiki>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Climateprediction.net</ref>.
