The Chemical Lagrangian Model of the Stratosphere (CLaMS) is a Lagrangian Chemistry Transport Model that was developed in Jülich, Germany. It is frequently used for flight planning in aircraft measurement campaigns. CLaMS data are saved on the server as gridded NetCDF files. The plot routines and the use of the GUI should be enhanced such that horizontal and vertical data plots can be provided by the MSS server.

The Model CLaMS is described in the following publications and references therein:
