The Earth Model Column Collaboratory (EMC²) is an open-source framework for
atmospheric model evaluation against observational data and model
intercomparisons. It consisting of an instrument simulator and a sub-column
generator, which enables statistically emulating a higher spatial resolution.
This framework is specifically designed to simulate the `Atmospheric
Radiation Measurement (ARM) User Facility `_ remote-
sensing measurements while being faithful to the representation of physical
processes and sub-grid scale assumptions in various state-of-the-art models,
thereby serving as a practical bridge between observations and models.


Detailed description of EMC² is provided in Silber et al. (GMD, 2022;
https://doi.org/10.5194/gmd-15-901-2022).
